2014 Ford Expedition EXTENDED SUV 4x4

Transmission will suddenly shift gear while driving. On one occasion it downshifted to 1st gear as I was travelling down the highway at 70 mph with my family in the vehicle. Tires locked up and vehicle slid but I was able to regain control and did not hit anything. In addition, in multiple occasions the Instrument Panel shuts off all the gauges for the exception of the RPM's and shows a wrench and loosing some power. Also while driving at low speeds the transmission disengages and slips but no sign of transmission issues. On all instances above I parked the vehicle, shut off for a minute, restart and drove away like nothing happened. No codes, no warnings. Brought it to several mechanics and they are not able to tell me whats wrong. Spoke to Ford and they said is nothing they have seen on the Ford Expedition but the symptoms are similar to an issue on a F-150. I'm very concerned as this can happened at any time and I know if it happens on snow It will probably cause a major accident. Don't feel safe driving the vehicle.

I was driving down the street at 40mph when all of a sudden the transmission down shifted into first gear. Because this happened on its own, there were no brake lights to warn the car behind me that I was slowing down at a rapid rate. The wrench symbol flashed on the dashboard and went away, so I took the vehicle to a Ford dealer the next morning when they opened up.

I was sitting sat a stop light, when the light turned green, I stepped on the gas pedel but the car did not move. I took my foot off the gas, let the engine rpm go down, then stepped on the gas again. As the engine rpm went up, the transmission dropped into gear with a loud, jerking cluck sound. The dashboard flashed and then went dead. I had no speedometer, fuels, coolant, voltage gages, the only thing that worked was the tacometer. I pulled over and turned the car off, but when I started the car again, all the gages worked as normal and drove fine until the next incident.

Transmission will suddenly shift gear while driving. One on occasion it downshifted to 1st gear. Luckily we were only going 45 mph, so I was able to maintain control of the vehicle. In a separate instances it downshifted 1 gear while driving 60 mph, remained in the lower gear and appeared to be stuck in that gear, because after coming to a complete stop it was very slow to pick up speed and didn't shift gears. Same thing happened within a 1 1/2 weeks, driving 70 mph, feel a slight jerk, transmission gets stuck in lower gear (noticeable higher RPM) and then magically clears itself up a few minutes later. Took it to 2 different Ford Dealers. Both say, the Molded Lead Frame/Valve Body assembly has gone bad. There is no recall for this, yet we had the exact same issue on a 2013 F-150. There had been a recall for model years (up to 2012) but not 2013. Then a few months later, the 2013 model year as included (I guess enough people complained). Now Ford claims that recall doesn't cover the 2014 Expedition with the 5.4L engine. Utter nonsense, same problem, same part that is failing/needs replacing.

As I was driving on the freeway my transmission downshifted and my rear wheels locked up and I lost control of my vehicle with all 4 of my children in the car with me! After this happened the check engine light came on and I had the code read at my local auto parts store and the error code was P0720 for the output shaft sensor which is located on the lead frame inside my transmission. I called my Ford dealer to get a quote to fix my car and was told based on my VIN the part number for the faulty part is AL3Z7G276D. When I looked up this part number on the internet I found that this part was recalled for the same exact thing that happened to me except that the current recall didn’t include my model year and build. I’m confused as to why if the recalled part number is in my truck and I almost died along with all 4 of my children because of it that my car is not covered in this safety recall.

POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL CORRODES, RESULTING IN NEED TO REPLACE BATTERY TERMINALS FREQUENTLY.

TRAVELING APROX 45-50 MPH ON HIGHWAY WHEN A SUBURBAN PULL OUT IN FRONT OF WITH ABOUT 55 FEET AND I HIT THE TRAILER THEY WERE PULLING HEAD ON AND THEN IT SPUN ME SIDEWAYS AND INTO A 5 FT DEEP DITCH AND CAME TO ABRUPT STOP FROM THE FRONT NOSE DOWN. NONE OF OUR AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, FOR EITHER MYSELF OR MY PASSENGER. WE WERE BOTH TAKEN BY AMBULANCE AND SUSTAIN CONTUSIONS, BACK AND NECK INJURIES.BOTH VEHICLES WER EIN MOTION AND IT OCCURED ON A HIGHWAY WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 55 AND I HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY, THEY PULLED OUT FROM A SIDE ROAD.

ON SUNDAY NOVEMBER 29, 2020, THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN BACK FROM CHURCH, APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES. IT WAS PARKED ON A GRAVEL DRIVE WAY, IN PARK, AND THE KEY REMOVED. THE VEHICLE WAS EXITED AT APPROXIMATELY 12:35PM. AT 2:46PM IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UP AGAINST A TOWABLE MAN-LIFT WITH THE TONGUE OF IT INSIDE THE FRONT GRILL OF THE VEHICLE. THE KEYS WERE RETRIEVED FROM THE HOME'S DINING ROOM TABLE A SHORT TIME LATER AND THE VEHICLE WAS MOVED OFF OF THE MAN-LIFT AND THE PARKING BRAKE WAS SET TO ASSURE THAT IT DID NOT ROLL AGAIN. IT WAS NOTED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LOCKED, IN 'PARK', AND EVERYTHING APPEARED NORMAL. AT THIS POINT IT WAS REALIZED THAT A RING CAMERA WAS OBSERVING THE AREA. THE VIDEO WAS RETRIEVED TO SEE EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. THE VIDEO SHOWS THAT AT 12:41PM, SIX MINUTES AFTER PARKING THE VEHICLE, IT BEGAN ROLLING UNATTENDED, AND CAME TO RESET AGAINST THE MAN-LIFT. SHORTLY THEREAFTER ALL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE BY ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE THE KEYS WITHOUT THE VEHICLE BEING IN PARK, ETC. THE INCIDENT COULD NOT BE RECREATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO REYNOLDS FORD OKC THE NEXT MORNING. THE VIDEO OF THE EVENT HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO REYNOLDS FORD OKC. I HAVE WORKED WITH THE SERVICING DEALER TO NOTIFY FORD CORP. OF THIS EVENT. THEIR COUNSEL HAS ADVISED ME THAT THEY HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY IN THE EVENT. I BEG TO DISAGREE. NO VEHICLE SHOULD EVER ROLL WHEN IN PARK, THE KEYS REMOVED AND THE DOORS LOCKED. I HAVE A RING CAMERA VIDEO OF THE EVENT THAT WAS SHARED WITH REYNOLDS FORD AND FORD CORP. I WILL BE HAPPY TO SHARE IT WITH YOU BUT YOUR DOCUMENTATION FORMAT WILL NOT ACCEPT VIDEOS.

WHEEL NUTS WERE SWOLLEN AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. JUST A WEEK PRIOR I HAD A FLAT TIRE AND THE NUTS WERE REMOVED WITHOUT INCIDENCE. HAD THEY BEEN SWOLLEN AT THE TIME I WOULD HAVE BEEN STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OUT OF TOWN FROM FAMILY/FRIENDS ALONE. THE TOW COMPANY, DUE TO COVID, COULD NOT TAKE ME TO WHERE MY CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN TOWED. LUCKILY, THE NUTS WERE ABLE TO BE REMOVED AT THE TIME OF FLAT.

IN 2015 LEFT FRONT STRUT FOUND TO BE LEAKING AT 3/3/2015 AT APPROX 10,00 MILES REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY BUT ONLY THAT STRUT.. IN 2016 BOTH REAR STRUTS FOUND LEAKING AT 25,000 MILES. BOTH REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. 3/3/2019 AT 45,00 MILES RIGHT FRONT STRUT FOUND LEAKING. MECHANIC NOTED OK TO GO TO NEXT OIL CHANGE. (/16/20 RT FRONT STRUT STILL FOUND LEAKING BUT LITTLE PROGRESSION. DECIDED TO WAIT UNTIL 20121 AS NO ACCELERATED TIRE WEAR NOTED OVER THE LAST YEAR. FORD SHOULD HAVE REPLACED ALL STRUTS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN THE LEFT FRONT AND BOTH REARS WERE FOUND LEAKING..

OUR 2014 FORD EXPEDITION HAS DEFECTIVE SHOCK ABSORBERS WHICH LEAK OIL. ON 4/21/17, WITH 21,132 MILES ON THE ODOMETER, THE FORD DEALER REPLACED THE LEFT FRONT SHOCK ABSORBER, WHICH WAS LEAKING OIL, UNDER WARRANTY. ON 11/17/17 THE FORD DEALER, WITH 27,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER, REPLACED THE RIGHT FRONT AND RIGHT REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS WHICH WERE BOTH LEAKING OIL. THIS WAS DONE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE DID NOT PASS VIRGINIA SAFETY INSPECTION AND WAS ALSO DONE UNDER WARRANTY. NOW, ON 4/30/20 WITH 49,851 MILES ON THE ODOMETER, THE RIGHT REAR SHOCK ABSORBER, WHICH WAS REPLACED BY THE FORD DEALER AT 27,000 MILES, IS LEAKING OIL. SINCE THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, A LOCAL GARAGE IS REPLACING THE RIGHT REAR SHOCK ABSORBER. THE FORD MOTORCRAFT SHOCK ABSORBERS USED ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE. THIS VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS BEEN USED HIGHWAY USE ONLY AND NEVER FOR ANY OFF-ROAD USE

PAINT BUBBLING ON THE REAR LIFT GATE. THIS ISSUE IS RELATED TO CONTAMINATION OF THE ALUMINUM BEFORE PAINTING. FORD IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, BUT IS IGNORING IT, CLAIMING IT IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND OR THE WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE ON HOOD AND TAILGATE ON MULTIPLE FORD MODELS. FORD HAS ISSUED A TSB: 17-0062 ABOUT THIS ISSUE:. HTTP://WWW.REVBASE.COM/BBBMOTOR/TSB/DOWNLOADPDF?ID=201136 THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS TO THIS CAR. THE CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN IN THE SOUTH EAST, SO NO ISSUES WITH SALT.

FORD RECALL ON EXPLORER MODEL REGARDING THE VEHICLE NOT RECOGNIZING THAT THE SHIFT GEAR IS IN THE PARKING SETTING,THEREFORE THE KEY IS UNABLE TO BE REMOVED...ALSO RENDERING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE CONSIDERING THAT SINCE PARKING ISN'T ENABLED THE VEHICLE MAY ROLL RESULTING IN INJURY OR DEATH.I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD TO THE RECORDS THAT THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I'VE EXPERIENCED THIS MALFUNCTION IN 3 DIFFERENT MODEL YEARS INCLUDING 2012 AND 2008. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO REPORT THAT THE AUTOMATIC RUNNING BOARDS HAVE BECOME DIS ENGAGED IN THE MOTOR AND ONLY WORK RANDOMLY WHICH IS ALSO DANGEROUS WHEN ENTERING VEHICLE.

HEADACHES AND GENERAL I'LL FEELINGS OF SICKNESS WHILE DRIVING/RIDING IN VEHICLE. CARBON MONOXIDE PRESENT IN FRONT CABIN OF VEHICLE AT 1-14PPM UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. READINGS NOT TESTED IN 3RD ROW. NOT TESTED IN EXTREME PASSING OR WITH AIR CONDITIONER ON. I DO NOT FEEL THIS VEHICLE IS SAFE.

PAINT BUBBLING ON HOOD AND REAR HATCH KNOWN DEFECT BY FORD CAR IS LESS THAN 4 YEAR'S OLD

SEEMS TO BE THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE 2011 TO 2013 6R80 TRANSMISSIONS THAT A PREVIOUS RECALL DEALT WITH. WHILE DRIVING THE EXPIDITION DOWNSHIFTED BY ITSELF CAUSING TO GO OFF THE ROAD AND ALMOST BEING REAR ENDED. MY VEHICLE IS MADE AT THE SAME PLANT AND THE RECALL GOES TO VEHICLES MANUFACTURED TO 4/13 MINE WAS 8/13. WHICH MAKES IT A NEW MODEL YEAR 2014. THE PREVIOUS RECALL WAS 2011 TO 12. THE LATER ADDED 2013 MODELS. THEY NEED TO LOOK INTO ADDING 2014 OR LATER TO THIS LIST SINCE IT IS HAPPENING TO THIS MODEL AS WELL. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY EXPEDITION. ALSO THE SPEEDOMETER JUMPED UP AND DOWN WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON IT JUMP AND SURGES AT LOWER SPEEDS. BUT SHUTTING IT OFF SEEMS TO RESET IT FOR A SHORT WHILE BUT THE ISSUE ALWAYS COMES BACK.

ALL 4 OF OUR STRUTS HAVE A SLOW LEAK AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE NEVER ONCE OWNED A VEHICLE THAT ALL 4 STRUTS LEAKED AT THE SAME TIME.. ESPECIALLY WHEN THE ONLY DRIVING IS HIGHWAY. JUST FOUND OUT TODAY

LOW TIRE SENSOR KEPT GOING OFF. KEPT TAKING VEHICLE TO NORTH CASCADE FORD AND LES SCHWAB TIRE CENTERS TO HAVE SENSORS RESET AND TIRES CHECKED. DIFFERENT TIRES AT DIFFERENT TIMES WERE LOW. STARTED AT APPROXIMATELY 41000 MILES. ON OCTOBER 7,2017 FRONT DRIVER TIRE WAS COMPLETELY FLAT. AIRED IT UP AND WENT TO LES SCHWAB. AFTER CHECKING ALL 4 TIRES AND NOT FINDING ANY PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES, WHICH WERE PURCHASED AT LES SCHWAB THE TIRE TECHNICIAN FOUND THAT THREE OF THE FOUR WHEELS THAT CAME ON THE VEHICLE WHEN PURCHASED (PURCHASED NEW FROM NORTH CASCADE FORD) WERE CRACKED AND ALLOWING AIR FROM THE TIRES TO LEAK OUT. CALLED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT NORTH CASCADE FORD AND THE ONLY RESPONSE WAS THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, SUGGESTED A CALL TO FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE WHICH RESULTED IN A CONVERSATION WITH A PERSON WHO DID NOT DPEAK ENGLISH VERY UNDERSTANDABLY SAYING THEY WOULD FOCUMENT THE PHONE CALL. LES SCHWAB TIRE CENTER DID DOCUMENT THE CRACKED WHEELS ON THE INVOICE OF THE NEW WHEELS THAT WERE PURCHASED FROM THEM.

WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR WE NOTICED THAT THE CARPET IN THE DRIVER WHEEL WELL WAS CUT SHORT. AT THAT TIME IT DID NOT CAUSE A HAZARD BUT OVER TIME AND MANY VISITS TO THE DEALER IT HAS FOLDED OVER IT ITSELF AND IS BECOMING DANGEROUS. FORD HAS LOOKED AT IT SEVERAL TIMES AND ACKNOWLEDGED IT AS A PROBLEM BUT SAID THAT SINCE IT IS AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD, THEY WILL NOT FIX IT. THIS CAN POSE A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND ASKING THAT FORD MAKE THE REPAIR. ALSO THE PANEL ON THE SIDE OF THE CHAR IS FALLING OFF AND IS POSING A HAZARD TOO. THE DEALER SAID HE HAS SEEN THIS OFTEN AND SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM. FORD IS NOT WILLING TO FIX IT EITHER.
