2017 FORD EXPEDITION Complaints

The rocker panels have rusted completely out. I've found information online where people have brought it to ford dealerships attention to be told ford knows water leaks into the rocker panels and sits and rots out. My kids have all caught their ankles and cut them horribly. Our back up camera only works once in a great while.

My 2017 Ford Expedition is experiencing the exact same rear backup camera problem as described in recall number 25V315000; however, the recall issued is not wide enough to cover all the affected cars. The recall should be expanded to cover 2017 Expeditions as well.

The back up camera is severely distorted or unavailable completely 95% of the time. It was replaced under an extended warranty and less than a month later began having the exact same issue. Our dog was not seen laying under the car due to not having a back up camera and was run over and died as a result. We have four small children and this is a huge issue and has been happening since we purchased the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2017 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the vehicle was making an extremely loud roaring sound. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the engine failed to crank over the following day due to the battery being drained. The vehicle was jumpstarted and taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the blower motor had caused the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was previously repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 22V648000 (Visibility, Electrical System). The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that the repairs would be at the owner’s expense and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 121,000.

Rearview camera intermittently (although more frequent than not) gives a distorted image or states that it is unavailable.
