2019 FORD EXPEDITION Complaints

When the vehicle has the auto start-stop activated it will randomly kill the engine entirely when you go to drive forward from an auto start-stop stop. You then need to put the vehicle in park and restart the engine. I've taken this into the dealership twice now for this issue, as the first time they tried to fix it with a new battery, which did not fix the issue. It's currently at Ford Service being inspected again. This is unsafe as drivers behind you would be expecting you to move forward when traffic signals allow, and after they see your rear brake lights go off when you try to accelerate.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Expedition. The contact stated while driving approximately 30 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle failed to accelerate as needed. The contact stated that it was as if the vehicle was stuck in second or third gear. The contact stated that when the transmission attempted to shift to the next gear, the engine revved loudly, and the vehicle jolted into gear. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent at first but had gradually become constant. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the dealer had rebuilt the transmission previously. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 83,000.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford expedition. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the vehicle made an abnormal sound. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with faulty cam phasers. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and suggested that the contact file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.

I had a complete transmission replacement 3 weeks ago and as I was driving down a grade, the car started smoking. I immediately took it back to dealership that had just replaced the transmission. They stated that the new transmission was "factory overfilled" that caused the smoking. They called Ford and now I am on my 3rd transmission. It was covered under the warranty of the transmission I paid 3 weeks ago. This was very scary as we were traveling as a family when the car started smoking. Our car could have started on fire.

The contact owns a 2019 Ford Expedition. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle intermittently came to an abrupt stop without any other objects or vehicles nearby. The emergency braking image followed by a warning chime would appear on the instrument panel during the failure. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer where he was informed that the failure could not be duplicated. An investigator was sent to inspect the vehicle and the brake module was replaced. Despite the repair, the failure persisted. The computer and battery were both replaced after the initial repair but failed to fix the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was provided a case number. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 22,000.

The transmission in my 2019 Ford Expedition is slipping and having drastic gear changes. Other people with the 10R80 transmission are having similar issues. This car is unsafe to drive.

The chrome interior trim on the center console (around the drink holder and shifter, as well as the smaller compartments) in the limited edition is defective and edges are lifting to the point that razor sharp edges are exposed and have cut open my hands, as well as the hands of my children. I asked them to replace it under my warranty and they declined. This part is defective and there are reports of others experiencing this online. The material used seems to be lifting and is not adhering properly. The part started lifting around 36,000 miles and continues to lift. The edge, again, is extremely sharp. WE have continually cut ourselves just reaching to grab a drink.

Hard shifting, getting stuck in high gears while stopped. Vehicle is only at 75,000 miles. Ford service says transmission needs to be replaced and it's extremely expensive.

Transmission shifts really hard , will not go into gear, and downshifts unexpectedly. Dealership said if they cannot make it happen on test drive nothing they can do. Ongoing problem with thousands of vehicles. 10 speed Transmission is the problem.

Our 2019 Ford Expedition MAX (75k miles), has a transmission that disengages while driving (wrench light on; powertrain system failure limp mode; incorrect 4th gear ratio error code). A mechanic diagnosed it as an inner sleeve of the C-D-F drum moving out of position needing a full rebuild or new transmission. The vehicle has lost total drive train power while driving in traffic at speed. Whenever there is a need for up shift or down shift, the vehicle will intermittently stutter, slip/grind gears, rev up, or lose power completely. This has put my family in danger on the road. The car is dangerous when attempting to pull onto roads with moving traffic. It is concerning that Ford has not issued a recall.
