2016 Ford Expedition EL EXTENDED SUV 4x4

Water/condensation build-up in charge air cooler collects in tubing and discharges into intake when quickly accelerating from a stopped position or “punching it” to pass a slower vehicle in traffic. This causes my vehicle to go into limp mode and lose all power which can be extremely dangerous in high traffic conditions.

While driving, brake pedal suddenly went straight to the floor with no resistance and no braking. Took to Ford and found that brake master cylinder had failed catastrophically, just like F-series trucks which have been recalled. Vacuum booster was full of brake fluid and master cylinder empty. Incurred $1062.62 in repair costs and could have had deadly consequences if it hadn’t occurred in a parking lot at low speed. There were no warning indicators activated. Repair done by AutoNation Ford inTorrance, CA, and I have the parts in my possession. Insurance and law enforcement were not involved.

driving at constant speed the automobile has entered Limp Mode at which time power to the drive train is loss and it losses speed rapidly. This is the third time it has happened over a 4-5 month period.

Low brake fluid light comes on then brake pedal go's to the floor. Brake fluid level checks low. After refilling brake fluid it doe's the same thing. Find no sign of any brake fluid leak.

During normal dealer service interval, I was advised by car dealer that lug nuts were in need of replacement. As vehicle is less than 5 years old and has under 60k miles, I said that seemed abnormal. Service agent advised they “see it all the time.” As this seems like a safety issue, I inquired if there was a recall or service bulletin. Advised, there was none. Work was completed. I contacted Ford Motor Company and asked about issue and reimbursement. They told me it was a known issue and that no recall existed and therefore they would NOT reimburse. They told me their current position is that lug nuts are a “wear and tear item” like tires. I told them never in my life of driving (over 4 decades and in excess of million miles) have I ever been advised that lug nuts need replacing.

75k Miles, 2016 Expedition Known Throttle body issue. Engaging the "Limp Mode" Happened several times before we could get it into the dealership. Each time was at different speeds and conditions.(** Who by the way told us to just keep driving it until our dealership appointment arrived approx. 2 weeks later) Not thrilled about this issue. We purchased the vehicle as a family hauler and a road tripper. Do not like the idea of having my kids in the car and the potential of this happening in a dangerous area. Ford dealer replaced the unit 10/8/21 we will see if the replacement will be a permanent fix for the vehicle. It does seem like ford is dragging their feet on this and not issuing a recall.

Rear camera is intermittently non-operative. Only works approximately 20% of the time. Due to the size & shape of this vehicle, this makes backing up dangerous for persons and property that are difficult to see when backing.

I had a flat tire and needed to install the spare tire. I jacked the vehicle up and tried to take the wheel lug nuts off. The manufacturer supplied lug removal bar's head would not fit over the wheel lug nuts. Consequently, I was not able to remove the flat tire and install the spare tire. Saftey was compromised by having to drive on a damaged tire approximately 10 miles to a repair shop. Had I been out of town or on a highway the saftey issues would have been greatly magnified. The repair shop had difficulty removing the lug nuts. They had to use special half sized sockets and pound the sockets onto the lug nuts before they could be removed. The independent service center states that this issue is not unusual for Ford products with two piece lug nuts. This incident did not cause an accident, injury or vehicle damage. Nothing was reported to any authorities, excluding this incident report. Bottm line; in cases of road side tire failure, the damaged tire needs to able to be removed and the spare installed to facillitae safe transport to a repair facility.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that while his wife was driving approximately 25 mph, the brake warning light illuminated, and the low brake fluid message was displayed on the instrument panel. Due to the failure, the brake pedal depressed to the floorboard while his wife was attempting to stop the vehicle. The driver called her husband to the scene who was able to carefully drive the vehicle back to their residence. Upon inspection, the contact discovered a leak from the brake master cylinder which had flowed into the brake booster which he believed caused the failure. The dealer was contacted about the failure and the contact was informed that the part to repair the vehicle was not available. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 96,000.

Wife driving 2016 Ford Exped with 61000 miles. Was driving on a remote road when the vehicle suddenly lost power and power train fault indicator came on. No cell service and no other traffic so no way to get help. Finally managed to restart which cleared the problem for now. Took the car to a Ford dealer immediately but code reader could find no fault. Dealer, however, said it is a throttle body malfunction and is not uncommon and will happen again. Now concerned about problem occurring on a freeway or other congested roadway. The sudden loss of power and resulting necessity to get off a busy roadway/highway creates a real safety issue.

On June 30, 2021, while driving in a parking lot, "low brake fluid" warning lite came on then brake pedal went to floor. Brake fluid was added at scene but problem repeated it self. Car was towed to shop and diagnosed as master cylinder failure with brake fluid in booster. The parts were replaced and problem was solved. There is approx. 51000 miles on vehicle. Fortunately, this occurred at low speed in a church parking lot. I can't imagine what would have happened on the hiway at speed! Defective parts are available for inspection.

Backup camera is distorted/intermittent

Low brake fluid light came on. I pulled off road to think, but since it said "low" brake fluid and not "empty" brake fluid, and since I was already on my way to the dealer for an oil change, I decided to proceed. When ready to go again, brake pedal went all of the way to the floor. Mechanic says the brake fluid is leaking into the power booster. His research found same problem with 2016 F150's that used the same part but was recalled, but Expedition's were not recalled. Required tow truck to take to Ford dealer 1-1/2 hrs from my home. Should have already been a recall or a warning that something could happen since Ford has already experienced this with the F150's.

Brake fluid level light came on. Stopped at Autozone, added fluid, drove 2 miles to Walmart brakes get soft, barely got home and reservoir was empty again. No visible leaks on the ground. Vehicle only has 60K miles on it and this could have been catastrophic and deadly if we needed to stop quickly. Research shows that the NHTSA issued a recall for this problem on the 2016 F150. The Expedition is essentially the same vehicle chassis, with a different body. The chassis components are the same. Reason and logic therefore would conclude that the recall be extended the the Expedition , as well as any other shared chassis vehicles.

6 months ago, electronic power steering failed (Control module?). Today. Electric throttle body - Code P2111. Driving down the road and lost acceleration (the “limp” condition). Engine is running but no reaction to the gas pedal. Wrench symbol on the dash. I coasted to a spot where I could get out of traffic. Restarted the vehicle and the error went away. When I made it home, I removed the throttle body. Butterfly was a little dirty but much cleaner than the ones shown on YouTube. Opened the gear box and it was clean too. However, several teeth on the plastic gears were worn and/or disfigured. It also seemed like the little electric motor would not let the butterfly shut all the way.

The contact owns a 2016 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle and depressing the brake pedal, the braking system malfunctioned and the brake pedal extended to the floor. Upon inspection, it was discovered that there was no brake fluid in the brake reservoir. After refilling the brake fluid reservoir, approximately 30 minutes later the brake fluid had leaked from the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the brake master cylinder and brake booster were faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,000.

I WAS ACCELERATING, TURNING LEFT TO ENTER A FREEWAY ON RAMP. MY SPEED WAS REDUCED TO 1MPH AND I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OR CONTROL THE CAR. WHEN I PUSHED ON THE ACCELERATOR NOTHING HAPPENED IT DID NOT REV THE ENGINE. A POP UP APPEARED WITH A WRENCH AND THE WORDS "SEE OWNERS MANUAL" I WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND TURN IT BACK ON. THIS ALLOWED ME TO REGAIN FUNCTION. THIS HAPPENED WITH NO WARNING AT ALL. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ENGINE CODES. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION WHERE CARS WERE BOTH ENTERING AND EXITING THE FREEWAY. FORTUNATELY I AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT HAD THIS HAPPENED AFTER I GOT ON THE FREEWAY I MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN SO LUCKY! UPON RETURNING HOME I CHECKED THE OWNERS MANUAL AND THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT A WRENCH LIGHT IN THERE.

THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD STARED SHOWING THE WARNING STERING ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUIRED. THE STERING IS DISABLED AND IT BECOMES VERY HARD OR IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. ISSUE STARTED HAPPENING AT ANY TIME WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY JERKED WITHOUT WARNING, WITH SEVERAL INSTRUMENT PANEL FUNCTIONS BECOMING INOPERABLE. ONCE THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT ABOVE THIRD GEAR. THE CONTACT HAD TO RESTART THE VEHICLE TO RESUME NORMAL DRIVING. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO COURTESY FORD (6393 HIGHWAY 98 WEST, HATTIESBURG, MS 39402) WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE LEAD FRAME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA FOR ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

LOW BRAKE FLUID WARNING, PARTIAL BRAKE FAILURE, SIMILAR TO BRAKE ISSUE WITH F150 FOR WHICH RECALL WAS ISSUED--SAME PARTS USED IN EXPEDITION. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN WARNING FIRST APPEARED. I REFILLED FLUED RESERVOIR. DROVE VEHICLE ABOUT 2 MILES THEN PARKED. RESTARTED AND RESERVOIR HAD EMPTIED, WARNING SIGN APPEARED, NO FLUID LEAKAGE VISIBLE UNDER HOOD OR ON GROUND.

I WAS DRIVING ON A SMALL HIGHWAY (2 TIMES) AND A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET (1 TIME) GOING 25 MPH (45 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY) OR MORE WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. MY CAR SEEMED TO SHIFT INTO A DIFFERENT DRIVE WITH THE WAY IT FELT AND SOME SHAKING. I WOULD PUSH THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR AND NOTHING WOULD HAPPEN. I HAD TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT TWICE OFF OF A BUSY ROAD WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. WHEN THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND THEN BACK ON IT WAS AS IF NOTHING EVER HAPPENED AND RAN FINE SO THAT I COULD DRIVE HOME. I HAD A MECHANIC DO A DIAGNOSTIC AND NO CODES FOR THIS INCIDENT WHERE STORED OR PRESENT. THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED I DID NOT SHUT THE CAR OFF UNTIL SOMEONE COULD COME AND RUN A DIAGNOSTIC WHICH READ THE CODE P2112, THROTTLE ACTUATOR, CONTROL SYSTEM STUCK? REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY. THIS LAST TIME IT HAPPENED, I HAD TO CROSS TWO LANES OF BUSY MORNING WORK TRAFFIC IN ORDER TO GET TO A PARKING LOT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN WAS FAULTY FOR GPS NAVIGATION, VOICE COMMAND AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL FOR THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 88,000.*DT CONSUMER STATED APIM MODULE WAS FAULTY.*JB

STARTED THE CAR TO GET HEATER GOING AND WARMED UP AND STARTED BUCKLING MY KIDS UP IN THEIR CAR SEATS. THAT'S WHEN I STARTED TO SMELL AN ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL COMING THROUGH THE VENTS. I TURNED THE HEATER OFF AND THE SMELL GOT STRONGER. I TURNED THE HEATER BACK ON AND SMELLED IT EVEN WORSE. I IMMEDIATELY SWITCHED IT TO AC INSTEAD OF HEAT AND THEN I STARTED TO NOTICE SMOKE COMING THROUGH THE AIR VENTS. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED THE CAR OFF. THE SMOKE CONTINUED TO BELLO OUT OF THE AIR VENTS. AS SOON AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS TURNED OFF I NOTICED A GLOW UNDER THE PASSENGER DASH DOWN BY THE CORNER OF THE FLOORBOARD. WHEN I WENT AROUND TO LOOK TO SEE WHAT WAS GLOWING I NOTICED THERE WAS A FIRE DOWN IN THAT CORNER AND IT WAS ALREADY BIG ENOUGH THAT I COULDN'T BLOW IT OUT NO MATTER HOW HARD I BLEW. I AM THANKFUL THAT I KEEP A FIRE EXTINGUISHER IN MY GARAGE AND WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY PUT IT OUT. I NORMALLY STRAP MY KIDS IN AND TURN ON A MOVIE FOR THEM WHILE I GO BACK IN THE HOUSE AND SPEND AROUND 3 TO 5 MINUTES GETTING THE KIDS WATERS, MAKING SURE THE DIAPER BAG IS STOCKED, AND BASIC STUFF LIKE THAT. HAD THAT FIRE STARTED AFTER I WALKED BACK IN THE HOUSE I AM SURE THAT I WOULD HAVE LOST MY KIDS IN A BLAZE, STRAPPED IN TO CAR SEATS, THAT DAY. IT WAS THANKSGIVING EVE. I FOUND OUT THAT THE BLOWER FAN FOR THE VENTS IS WHAT SPARKED UP AND CAUGHT FIRE. THERE ARE NO RECALLS BY FORD FOR THIS AND I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO. THIS IS AN ENORMOUS SAFETY HAZARD AND I AM SHOCKED THAT IT HAS GONE IGNORED BY FORD. DOES AN ACTUAL DEATH NEED TO TAKE PLACE BEFORE THEY SET IT RIGHT? BECAUSE I DID JUST BUY IT; THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FAN. BUT THE FLOORBOARD IN THAT CORNER IS ALL BURNT UP AND AM NOW QUESTIONING WHAT MORE SERIOUS DAMAGE IS IN THAT DASH THAT I CAN'T SEE. LIKE THE AIRBAG OR OTHER ELECTRONIC WIRING THAT MAY NOW BE AT RISK.*DT*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE BRAKES BECAME SPONGY WITH AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER DRIVING AN ADDITIONAL FOUR MILES, AND ATTEMPTING TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. AFTER PUMPING THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES, THE VEHICLE STOPPED WITH AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE ARRIVED AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO BRAKE FLUID INSIDE THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO GALPIN FORD (15505 ROSCOE BLVD, VAN NUYS, CA 91343, (818) 787-3800) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER AND THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND FILED A CASE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,222.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT APPROX 35 MPH ON A CITY STREET. THE BRAKES WERE LIGHTLY APPLIED UPON APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE PEDAL, WITHOUT ANY WARNING, WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESISTANCE AND THEN THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. PUMPING THE BRAKES ALLOWED THE VEHICLE TO SLOWLY DECELERATE BUT, PEDAL TRAVEL CONSISTENTLY WENT FULL THROW. A VISUAL INSPECTION SHOWED AN EMPTY FLUID RESERVOIR AND NO INDICATION OF AN EXTERNAL LEAK. THE BREAK DOWN SHOWS THE MASTER CYLINDER FAILED AND WAS DIVERTING THE BRAKE FLUID INTO THE BOOST ASSEMBLY. THE VEHICLE HAS 56,511 MILES ON IT.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, MY BRAKE PEDAL LOST RESISTANCE AND WENT TO THE FLOOR. I DISCOVERED THAT THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THE BACK BRAKES WERE FUNCTIONING. I DISCOVERED THAT THIS WAS A COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR THE 2016 FORD F150 (THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED BECAUSE OF THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER) AND WAS BECOMING A COMMON OCCURRENCE THE 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. IT SEEMS THAT BOTH MODEL SHARE THE SAME PART. THE LOCAL FORD DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND REPLACED THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AND BOOSTER ASSEMBLIES. THE REPAIR WAS DELAYED ABOUT A WEEK BECAUSE THE "RECALLED" MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER MODEL WAS ORDERED IN ERROR AND THE NEW MODEL WOULD TAKE A FEW DAYS TO GET IN. I FOUND THAT TO BE A STRANGE COMMENT WHEN THERE IS NOT INFORMATION RELATED TO A RECALL FOR THE 2016 FORD EXPEDITION.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST ALL POWER AND A "WRENCH" INDICATOR APPEARED. WAS ABLE TO NAVIGATE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WRENCH LIGHT INDICATES A POWER TRAIN ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF WHILE CONTACTING HELP. TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON AND WRENCH INDICATOR GONE. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. UPON SEARCHING THE PROBLEM APPARENTLY THIS HAS OCCURRED TO NUMEROUS FORD EXPEDITION OWNERS. VERY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS NO WARNING AND CAN HAPPEN AT ANYTIME.

WE DETECTED A BURNT RUBBER SMELL WHILE DRIVING ON A SURFACE STREET (WITH A/C ON). THE A/C SUDDENLY QUIT. WE PULLED OVER TO TURN SUV OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN HOPING A/C WOULD RETURN. A/C DID NOT RETURN, SMOKE BEGAN BILLOWING OUT OF A/C VENTS. STOPPED AT A GAS STATION AND TURNED OFF SUV. THE SMOKE FROM THE VENTS GOT THICKER AND LARGE FLAMES BEGAN COMING OUT UNDERNEATH THE DASH. HUSBAND RAN IN TO GAS STATION AND GOT A FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND PUT OUT THE FIRE. FIRE KEPT RESTARTING (THE PARKING LIGHTS WERE ON THOUGH THE CAR WAS OFF). HUSBAND FINALLY HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY TO KEEP FIRE FROM RESTARTING. THE A/C/HEATER BLOWER THEN FELL OUT ONTO THE FRONT PASSENGER FLOOR-MAT BURNED TO A CRISP.

I WAS DRIVING AND MY LOW BRAKE FLUID LIGHT CAME ON AND MY BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND MY MASTER CYLINDER IS CRACKED

2016 FORD EXPEDITION EL LIMITED - MANUFACTURED IN DEARBORN MICHIGAN "YELLOW WRENCH" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THE FREEWAY AND CUT 100% OF POWER TO THE MOTOR, ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO TRAVERSE TRAFFIC TO GET TO A SAFE AREA. CALLED A DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS LIKELY THE THROTTLE BODY. FORD IMPLEMENTED A VOLUNTARY RECALL FOR ALL OTHER 2015 & 2016 MODELS EXCEPT THE EXPEDITION WHICH IS BUILT ON THE EXACT SAME ASSEMBLY LINE AS THE F150 AND WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART. FORD RECALL NUMBER WAS 16B32. I AM PAYING $500 OUT OF POCKET SINCE THIS ITEM IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THIS ISSUE IS DANGEROUS AND COULD SERIOUSLY HURT OR KILL SOMEONE. FORD HAS HAD A HISTORY OF BAD THROTTLE BODIES AND THE NHSTA NEEDS TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FORMALLY RECALLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THE LOW BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WENT TO THE FLOORBOARD FAILING TO EFFECTIVELY SLOW THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. THE CONTACT SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND SHIFTED INTO REVERSE AND THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND SHIFTED THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HER HUSBAND ADDED TWO BOTTLES OF BRAKE FLUID TO THE RESERVOIR AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO LEAK WAS VISIBLE. THE CONTACT STATED THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V332000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER LEAKING INTO BRAKE BOOSTER RENDERING THE VEHICLE BRAKES USELESS. NOTE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING ON THE 2016 F-150 TRUCKS AS WELL AND THE 2 VEHICLES SHARE THE SAME PARTS FOR THE BRAKE SYSTEM. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING BACK TO THE OFFICE AND NOTICED THAT IT WAS TAKING A LONG STROKE OF THE PEDAL TO APPLY THE BRAKES. UPON ARRIVAL BACK AT THE OFFICE THE RESERVOIR WAS INSPECTED AND THERE WAS LITTLE TO NO FLUID LEFT, AND NO VISIBLE LEAKS.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE VERY BUSY INTERSTATE AT 75-80 MPH THE VEHICLE JERKED AND THEN LOST ALL THROTTLE POWER. THE WRENCH INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. WITH NO THROTTLE I HAD TO EASE MYSELF INTO THE NARROW SHOULDER WHILE SEMI AFTER SEMI FLEW BY. THIS WAS TERRIFYING! I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF & BACK ON AND IT WORKED FINE TO HEAD HOME. IT HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES ON THE WAY HOME BUT THANKFULLY ON SMALL COUNTRY ROADS.

DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 45-55 THE SUV LOSSES POWER SPUTTERS AND CRAWLS AT A SPEED OF 5 MILES SEE OWNER MANUEL WITH WRENCH POPS UP VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING WITH CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE....SHOP SAYS THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING HAD THE SUV FOR 1 YEAR BOUGHT USED BUT THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES

WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH THE ENGINE STARTED SHUDDERING AND HAD LOSS OF POWER. PUSHING ACCELERATOR PRODUCED NOTHING. COASTED TO SIDE OF ROAD AND POWERTRAIN FAILURE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. CALLED FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID TURN IT OFF AND IT WOULD CLEAR ITSELF AS THIS WAS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM. IT CLEARED ITSELF. THEY SAID THIS PROBLEM WOULD REPEAT ITSELF BUT NO TELLING WHEN. THIS PROBLEM CAUSED MY WIFE TO BE PLACED IN A VERY HAZARDOUS TRAFFIC SITUATION.THIS KNOWN THROTTLE BODY DEFECT SHOULD BE RECALLED. AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND NUMEROUS IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS.

RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF LOW BRAKE FLUID. SHORTLY AFTER, THE VEHICLE WOULD HAD TROUBLE STOPPING AND WAS NEARLY IN AN ACCIDENT. DROVE TO LOCAL SHOP TO HAVE FLUID ADDED AND LOOK FOR LEAKS. NO LEAKS FOUND, FLUID TOPPED OFF, SEEMED TO BE FINE. WITHIN MINUTES, SAME 'LOW BRAKE FLUID' MESSAGE APPEARED. SOON AFTER, NO BRAKES AGAIN. AGAIN, NEARLY AN ACCIDENT. SEARCHED ONLINE, SAW THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENING TO OTHERS AND THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 2014-2016 F-150 THAT SHARES THE SAME PLATFORM AND IS BUILT IN THE SAME FACTORY (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V-332. FORD'S REFERENCE NUMBER FOR THIS RECALL IS 20S31). FORD WILL NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR SINCE IT IS AT AN OUTSIDE SHOP. *TR

MASTER CYLINDER FAILED COMPLETELY WHILE STOPPED. BRAKE PEDAL DROPPED TO THE FLOOR WITH NO BACK PRESSURE. BRAKE FLUID HAD DRAINED INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALLED F150! REAR BRAKES WERE RUINED PRESUMABLY TO FRONT MASTER CYLINDER FAILING SILENTLY. *TR

TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFT FROM 6TH GEAR DOWN TO 2ND GEAR WHILE TRAVELING AT 50MPH WHICH CAUSED THE WHEELS TO LOCK AND SKID. SOMETIMES YOU WILL JUST FEEL A SUDDEN JOLT DURING THE DOWNSHIFT. HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE OFTEN. MY TRUCK HAS ONLY 75K MILES ON IT. *TR

P2112 ERROR KEEPS COMING UP CAUSING SUDDEN LOSE OF POWER IN THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, CAUSING A PANIC MOMENT TO GET TO THE SHOULDER, AND ON CITY AND RURAL ROADS. WE HAVE TO PULL OVER SHUT THE VEHICLE DOWN AND THEN RESTART IT SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE DRIVING. *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE I HAD TO COME TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT I PRESSED BRAKE PEDAL AND IT WENT TO THE FLOOR. I HAD NO SERVICE BRAKE AVAILABLE AND WENT THROUGH RED LIGHT AND NARROWLY AVOIDED HITTING A CAR THAT HAD RIGHT OF WAY. I ROLLED TO A STOP. THE DRIVER OF THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS SO UPSET THAT HE DROVE AROUND AND THREATENED ME WITH PHYSICAL VIOLENCE WHEN HE PROCEEDED TO BEAT ME WITH A STICK OF SOME SORT. I WAS ABLE TO DIFFUSE THE SITUATION WHEN I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT I HAD A COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE. I HAD A FRIEND TOW THE VEHICLE ON A TRAILER TO MY HOUSE WHERE I REFILLED THE RESERVOIR. I INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND THEIR WAS NO EVIDENCE OF LEAKING FLUID ANYWHERE ON VEHICLE OR GROUND. I CHECKED VEHICLE AGAIN AFTER A ABOUT 8 HOURS AND RESERVOIR HAD EMPTIED DOWN TO BELOW THE LOW LEVEL. I ADDED THE REMAINING AMOUNT OF FLUID WHICH PUT THE RESERVOIR AT LINE JUST BELOW THE FULL LINE. AT THIS POINT I STOPPED LOOKING FOR LEAKS. I WAS PREPARING TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE IT TO MECHANIC WHEN I HEARD ABOUT A SAFETY RECALL FOR THE FORD F-150 BRAKE SAFETY RECALL NHTSA NUMBER 20V-332 AND FORD RECALL NUMBER 20S31. I IMPLORE YOU TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. IT IS A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH. *TR

GOING HOME WHEN VEHICLE WAS MOVING, I NOTICED BRAKES WERE PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE. EACH BRAKING EVENT REQUIRED 25% MORE TRAVEL THEN PREVIOUS BRAKE APPLICATION. MADE IT HOME SAFELY WITHIN 3 MILES. NO BRAKE FLUID ONCE I PARKED VEHICLE. DROVE SLOW AND USED THE BRAKE VERY LITTLE DURING THE TRIP. THANKFULLY, I WAS NOT GOING FAST AND REALIZED SOMETHING WAS NOT RIGHT AND WAS ABLE TO MOSTLY COST HOME. LATER THAT DAY, THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FORD DEALER. AFTER THEY INSPECTED, THEY REPORTED TO ME THE MASTER CYLINDER LEAKED THE BRAKE FLUID INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. REPAIR QUOTE WAS FOR $1500 FOR NEW MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER.*DT*JB

SUDDEN UNEXPECTED DECELERATION TO 1-3 MPH AND UNRESPONSIVE WHILE TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MPH. ERROR MESSAGE "SEE MANUAL". CORRECTED BY TURNING OFF IGNITION AND RE-STARTING. REPEAT PROBLEM - REPAIR FACILITY REPLACED ALL SPARK PLUGS AND DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR A WEEK. THEY STATED MULTIPLE ISSUES CAME UP ON THEIR ANALYSIS WHICH WERE VARIABLE. INITIALLY THOUGHT TO BE THROTTLE ISSUE. I QUESTION A COMPUTER SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE ISSUE

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY PARKWAY GOING AROUND 35-40MPH. MY EXPEDITION SUDDENLY STARTED SHUDDERING AND DECELERATING. THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I LOOKED UP IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL WHAT THAT MEANT. IT SAID TO CONTACT AN AUTHORIZED REPAIR CENTER. I WENT TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP. THEY RAN THE DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID IT WAS THE THROTTLE BODY. THEY ALSO STATED IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE ECO-BOOST ENGINES. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BEFORE THE LOSS OF POWER AND CONTROL HAPPENS ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AND SOMEONE IS INJURED OR KILLED.

VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED OPERATING WHILE DRIVING 90 MPH. A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS IMMEDIATELY PUT INTO NEUTRAL AND ALLOWED TO COAST SO THAT IT COULD BE SAFELY MOVED TO THE EMERGENCY LANE OF THE INTERSTATE. SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WHILE COASTING. ADDITIONAL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER THE VEHICLE CAME TO A HALT. NO SUCCESS. THE VEHICLE WOULD TURN OVER BUT NEVER START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER. AFTER INSPECTION, FORD DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAD FAILED UNEXPECTEDLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. THE VEHICLE ROLLED AWAY WHILE ENGAGED IN PARK POSSIBLE POWER TRAIN CONSEQUENCE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AT OWNERS EXPENSE THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ENGAGED IN PARK AND THE KEY WAS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION, STARTED TO WALK INSIDE A BUILDING, NOTICED THE VEHICLE ROLLING BACKWARDS ON A FLAT SURFACE STREET. THE CONTACT OPENED THE PASSENGER DOOR IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER THE DOOR HIT THE SIDE OF A BUILDING. HE WAS ABLE TO STEP ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED ONE OTHER TIME AROUND THE 20 OF FEBRUARY 2020, BUT HE WAS INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. NO POLICE INCIDENT REPORT WAS FILED. NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY STARTED ON FIRE. IT HAD BEEN TURNED OFF AT A RESTAURANT IN PARKING AREA. IT HAD BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 3 MILES IN TOWN JUST BEFORE THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE HAD LOW MILEAGE, APPROXIMATELY 50000 MILES. NO KNOW MECHANICAL OR OTHER ISSUES, SERVICED REGULARLY.

WHEN TRYING ACCELERATE THE VEHICLE DOES NOTHING AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO PUSH ON THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS CAUSED NEAR MISSES IN TRAFFIC FROM GETTING REAR ENDED AS THE VEHICLE STALLS AND THEN RESUMES DRIVING. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING AS THE PROBLEM DID NOT DUPLICATE IN THEIR POSSESSION. THIS CONTINUES TO OCCUR WITHOUT ANY CODES POPULATING. I HAVE HELD UP TRAFFIC WHILE TRYING TO MOVE OVER BECAUSE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE WRENCH ICON ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO STALL. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT AFTER THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO GATOR FORD (11780 TAMPA GATEWAY BLVD, SEFFNER, FL 33584) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,200. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

BRAKING ABILITY WENT TO 0% WHILE DRIVING; ACCOMPANIED BY A "BRAKE FLUID IS LOW" DASHBOARD INDICATOR LIGHT (DASHBOARD LAMP BECAME LIT AFTER BRAKING APPLIED ). WHEN BRAKES WERE APPLIED THERE WAS 0% AVAILABLE TO SLOW/STOP THE VEHICLE (IN HEAVY TRAFFIC). DRIVER WAS ABLE TO AVOID A CROWDED INTERSECTION AND A RED LIGHT TO MY VEHICLE TRAFFIC DIRECTION (RED LIGHT TO ME) BY APPLYING THE PARKING BRAKE AND A SURVIVABLE DISTANCE BETWEEN ME AND THE TRAFFIC IN MY 4 (TRAVELING IN AN EASTERLY DIRECTION) LANES. UPON TURNING ONTO A RESIDENTIAL STREET NEAR MY HOME, I WAS ABLE TO CREEP (<5MPH) HOME. I ADDED DOT 4 BRAKE FLUID (FROM A NEWLY OPENED BOTTLE) AND FILLED THE MASTER CYLINDER TO JUST BELOW THE "MAX" LINE ON THE RESERVOIR. IN THE MORNING YOU COULDN'T GAUGE MY SHOCK, WHEN TO MY SURPRISE THE MASTER CYLINDER WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY AND DEVOID OF ANY BRAKE FLUID. NOT ONLY THAT! BUT THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF LEAKAGE ON THE GROUND. I HAVE A PAINTED DRIVEWAY AND THERE WAS NO FORENSIC EVIDENCE OF ANY KIND OF VEHICLE FLUID LEAKS. I WAS AGHAST! I HAVE SEVERAL OF MY NEIGHBORS COME OVER AS THEY SAW ME ATTENDING TO MY VEHICLE. WE ALL HAD FLASHLIGHTS AND WERE SCOURING THE VEHICLE LOOKING FOR ANY EVIDENCE OF BRAKE FLUID. THERE SIMPLY WAS NONE! I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO MY FORD DEALER AND AWAITED A DIAGNOSIS. TURNS OUT IT WAS A FAULTY MASTER CYLINDER IN COMBINATION WITH A BRAKE BOOSTER THAT DRINKS BRAKE FLUID WHEN IT CAN GET IT. TOGETHER THEY ARE A POTENTIALLY LETHAL COMBINATION NOT TO MENTION A COSTLY PAIR TO REPAIR. IF THERE EVER WAS A REASON FOR A RECALL IT WOULD BE TO REMEDY THIS LIABILITY WAITING TO HAPPEN ONTO FORD MOTOR COMPANY. I SIMPLY CANNOT FATHOM WHY NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN AND HENCE THE REASON I AM COMPLAINING. I SEEK TO GET SOME SATISFACTION FROM FOMOCO ON THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE OF THEIR TRUSTING, BUYING PUBLIC BECOMES A TRAGEDY OF THIS SIMPLE FIX. IT IS UNCONSCIONABLE! ACT NOW!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. ONE OF THE PASSENGERS SUSTAINED MINOR BRUISING THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED, BUT WAS NOT TOTALED OR TOWED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT INDICATOR AND CHIME DID NOT FUNCTION WHEN THE SEAT BELT WAS NOT UTILIZED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MTN. VIEW FORD LINCOLN (423-458-6182, LOCATED AT 301 E 20TH ST, CHATTANOOGA, TN 37408) WHERE THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MODEL WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH A SEAT BELT INDICATOR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE TRANSFER CASE AND REAR AXLE WERE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 86,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE LOW BREAK FLUID WARNING CAME ON AND THE BREAK PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. THERE IS NO SIGN OF A LEAK EVEN THOUGH THE BREAK RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. AFTER FILLING IT BACK UP AND CHECKING FOR LEAKS, IT EMPTIED AGAIN. AFTER MORE RESEARCH, THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITHOUT A RECALL. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED FROM THIS.

WHILE IN MOTION ON THE STREET AND CAR LOSE THROTTLE. PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL DID NOT THING AND ONLY MADE THE CARE STUTTER. IT WOULDN'T GOT PASS 30MILES PER HOUR BUT ALSO WOULDN'T STAY AT 30 EITHER IT WILL GO DOWN AND UP CHOKING ON ITS SELF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AND AT ANY SPEED. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT ON AGAIN. THIS FIX IS TEMPORARILY AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND IT ALMOST CAUSE ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT.

2016 MODEL, PURCHASED IN 2018. WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON 7/26/19, DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, GOING 60 MPH THE "WRENCH" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY DECELERATED TO 40 MPH, STARTING SPUTTERING AND SHAKING. I WAS ABLE TO LIMP THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE. I WAITED A FEW MINUETS AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. INITIALLY IT SEEM TO RUN AS NORMAL WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS. I CONTINUED ON THE HIGHWAY FOR MAYBE 3/4 A MILE AND THE WRENCH LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BOTH CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN. I WAS FORCED TO PULL OVER TO A NARROW SIDE OF THE BUSY HIGHWAY. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE, PRAYING NO ONE WOULD HIT ME. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND HEADED FOR THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER. THE ONLY LIGHT THAT REMAINED ON WAS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. ONCE AT THE DEALER THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS THE THROTTLE BODY WAS " OUT OF RANGE". THE SOLUTION WOULD BE TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY WHICH WOULD COST ME $900. DESPITE THE CHARGES NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR, MY CONCERN IS SAFETY OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN WHICH THE VEHICLE WILL RAPIDLY DECELERATE ON A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE. OTHER DRIVERS MAY NOT RECOGNIZE THAT YOUR VEHICLE IS SLOWING DOWN AS YOU ARE NOT PRESSING THE BRAKE AND YOU ARE UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO A SAFE AREA! I HAVE CALLED FORD AND ONLY BEEN TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY FOR ANY REPAIRS TO BE MADE BY FORD, AND THERE ARE NOT ANY RECALLS FOR THE VEHICLE. I HAVE SEEN OTHER LAWSUITS AND RECALLS FOR VEHICLES USING THIS THROTTLE BODY, THIS ISSUES NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND RECALLS SHOULD BE MADE BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED.

2016, PURCHASED 2018. WHILE DRIVING TO FLORIDA FROM INDIANA FOR VACATION 7/6/19, ON HIGHWAY DRIVING 80MPH, VEHICLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY LOST POWER AND WE WERE ABLE TO LIMP TO LEFT SIDE OF HIGHWAY SPITTING AND SPUTTERING, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AND CONTINUE. TURNED ENGINE OFF AND WAITED 5-10 MINUTES TO RESTART. VEHICLE RETURNED TO SOUNDING NORMAL. WE WERE ABLE TO CONTINUE ON TO FLORIDA FOR 7DAY TRIP. THEN DRIVING HOME TO INDIANA, WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING AND ACCELERATING TO PASS A CAR, DASH WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND WE WERE BARELY ABLE TO GET TO THE LEFT UNSAFE SMALL SIDE OF HIGHWAY, UP AGAINST A CONCRETE WALL...DURING HEAVY 3 LANES OF TRAFFIC. VEHICLE AGAIN SPIT AND SPUTTERED AND BARELY ABLE TO MOVE. WE WERE UNABLE TO GET VEHICLE SAFELY OFF OF HIGHWAY. A TOW TRUCK HAD TO BE CALLED TO TOW US TO THE NEXT EXIT TO A GAS STATION. VEHICLE TURNED BACK ON AND WRENCH LIGHT OFF BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOW FLASHING, WE CHOSE TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE REMAINING 5HRS HOME GOING 50-55MPH. RESEARCHED ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND THIS TO BE A THROTTLE BODY ISSUE, COMMON WITH FORD VEHICLES. TOOK VEHICLE TO AUTOZONE FOR DIAGNOSTIC SCAN AND YES, THE ERROR CODE P2111 "THROTTLE BODY ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM,STUCK OPEN" IS WHAT WAS READ. THIS APPEARS TO BE A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SAFETY CONCERN AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED WITH FORD. I HAVE ALREADY CALLED FORD AND A RECALL WAS NOT IDENTIFIED WITH MY VEHICLE, BUT THIS HAS BEEN A RECALL WITH OTHER FORDS IN THE PAST. THERE ARE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ALSO. I WILL LOG A COMPLAINT WITH THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE AS WELL. I HAVE ALREADY PAID TO HAVE TO MANY OTHER REPAIRS DONE ON THIS VEHICLE BUT THIS ONE IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY CONCERN. LOOKS LIKE MORE MONEY WILL NEED TO BE POURED INTO THIS LEMON BY HAVING THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY REPLACED. THANK YOU

MY VEHICLES BRAKES WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. FORTUNATELY I WAS PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, WHICH IS ON A HILL, AND ABLE TO COME TO A STOP AND APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. AFTER COMING TO A STOP I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID AND IT WAS EMPTY. THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF ANY LEAKS. I REFILLED THE BRAKE FLUID AND THE NEXT MORNING WAS EMPTY AGAIN. I CHECKED AGAIN TO FIND NO SIGN OF BRAKE FLUID LEAKS. I HAD TO HAVE MY VEHICLE TOWED TO GOSCH FORD TEMECULA FOR THEM TO LOOK INTO THE ISSUE.

I'M DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED WHEN SUDDENLY MY MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHTS UP AND NO ENGINE POWER. THE POWER STEERING, BRAKING, LIGHTING AND CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEMS REMAIN FULLY FUNCTIONAL, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE NO LONGER REMAINS OPERATIONAL. FORD HAS A RECALL 16B32 AND CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM IN OTHER FORD VEHICLES, BUT NOT MINE, BUT THE SAME EXACT THING IS HAPPENING. . $890 LATTER I AM HAVING MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY REPLACED WITH ONLY 52,000 MILES AND FORD HAS NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT THE PROBLEM SINCE THE EXPEDITION IS NOT PART OF THE CSP. APPARENTLY, IN A VARIETY OF FORD VEHICLES, THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY INTERNAL MOTOR CONTACTS MAY DEVELOP CONTAMINATION RESULTING IN INCREASED ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE. IF THIS HAPPENS, WHICH IN MY CASE IT DID, THE MIL LIGHT CAME ON AND THE I EXPERIENCED A DECREASED AMOUNT OF ENGINE POWER AND SPEED AND I COULDN'T ACCELERATE. THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, BUT THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT GETTING HIT. THE DEALER IS REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY, REPROGRAMING MY VEHICLE, AND CLEANING THE INJECTIONS. THERE ARE A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS FOR THE 2016 FORD EXPEDITION, BUT FORD IS NOT DOING ANYTHING. I'M GLAD I WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT GETTING HIT SINCE I HAD NO FUNCTION TO ACCELERATE.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, ON A CITY STREET LOST POWER ,SHUT DOWN BUT DIDN'T CUT OFF NO THROTTLE WHAT SO EVER.. I BELIEVE IT IS THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SERVICE CODE P2112

I WAS TRAVELING AWAY FROM HOME AND WAS TOWING MY BOAT (ABOUT 4K WEIGHT). NO PERFORMANCE ISSUES OR WARNING LIGHTS ON THE TRIP THUS FAR. WHEN LEAVING THE HOTEL WE STAYED IN, I PRESSED THE BRAKE TO PUT THE TRUCK IN GEAR. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR. ALL THE WAY DOWN. THE LOW BRAKE FLUID LIGHT CAME ON AND THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED TOO. THE FLUID RESERVOIR, TOPPED OFF A WEEK BEFORE, WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY, YET NO FLUID WAS ON THE GROUND. GOT THE TRUCK TOWED TO A FORD DEALER. NEEDED A NEW MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE BOOSTER, SAYING THAT THE SEAL BETWEEN THOSE 2 PARTS FAILED AND THE FLUID QUICKLY TRANSFERRED FROM THE PREVIOUSLY SEALED MASTER CYLINDER INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER. DOING A BIT OF RESEARCH, I SEE A NHTSA RECALL ON F-150S THAT HAVE THE SAME MASTER CYLINDER AND BOOSTER. I ALSO SEE AN INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY FOR '15 AND '16 F150S FOR BRAKE FAILURE. AND I SEE STORY UPON STORY OF EXPEDITION OWNERS ON THE EXPEDITION FORUM DESCRIBING THE SAME CRITICAL, POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. I'M GRATEFUL THE TRUCK WAS STOPPED WHEN IT FAILED. I TRULY FEEL I WOULD NOT BE HERE DESCRIBING THE SITUATION TO YOU IF IT HAD FAILED ON THE HIGHWAY, ON A BOAT RAMP, OR EVEN IN A CITY. IT'S REMARKABLE TO ME THAT POSSIBLY A $2.00 SEAL (PART) COULD HAVE COST ME MY LIFE, OR THOSE ALSO IN THE TRUCK. IT'S UNACCEPTABLE TO ALLOW TRUCKS TO REMAIN ON THE ROAD WITH A CHEAP PART THAT CAN FAIL THAT EASILY, LIKELY CAUSING DEATH OR SIGNIFICANT INJURY TO SELF AND THOSE YOU RUN INTO. FORD CAN DO BETTER. NHTSA CAN DO BETTER. LET'S GET THIS RECALLED BEFORE OTHERS DIE UNNECESSARILY.

POWER TRAIN FAILURE WHILE DRIVING, CAR STOPPED MOVING ON HIGHWAY. NEEDED TO TURN CAR OFF AND RESTART. HAPPENED AGAIN AFTER DRIVING LESS THAN A MILE. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALER.

ISSUE WITH BRAKING SYSTEM. WARNING LIGHT TURNED ON INDICATING LOW BRAKE FLUID, AND WITHIN MILE, THE BRAKE PEDAL HIT THE FLOOR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET, AND THE BRAKE FAILURE WAS IMMEDIATE. WAS VERY FORTUNATE I WAS ON AN UNCROWDED CITY STREET AND WAS ABLE TO ROLL INTO A GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT WITHOUT INCIDENT. NO LEAKING IDENTIFIED ANYWHERE NEAR THE MASTER CYLINDER OR BRAKES.

THE CHECK BRAKE LIGHT TURNED ON. THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. REFILLED AND DRAINED IMMEDIATELY WITH NO VISIBLE LEAKS FROM SYSTEM. PEDAL COULD BE PRESSED TO FLOOR WITHOUT ACTIVATING BRAKES. MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT MASTER CYLINDER WAS DEFECTIVE AND LEAKING INTO BOOSTER.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE FREEWAY NEARING SPEEDS OF 65MPH WHEN THE BREAK LIGHT CAME ON AND INDICATED LOW BREAK FLUID (PRIOR TO THE ALERT MY BREAKING SYSTEM WAS FUNCTIONING NORMAL) MY BREAKS COMPLETELY GAVE OUT, AND I DEPRESSED THE BREAK PETAL AS FAR AS IT COULD GO ONLY SLIGHTLY SLOWING MY VEHICLE AND RELIED ON MY PARKING BREAK TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. AFTER TOWING IT TO AN OFFICIAL FORD REPAIR SHOP, THE DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED A FAILED MASTER CYLINDER, WHICH LEAKED BREAK FLUID INTO THE BREAK BOOSTER CAUSING THE WHOLE SYSTEM TO SUDDENLY FAIL PUTTING MY THREE YEAR OLD SONS LIFE IN DANGER AS WELL AS MINE

MASTER CYLINDER AND BOOSTER TOTAL FAILURE. THANKFULLY THIS HAPPENED IN MY DRIVEWAY BEFORE HEADING OUT TO DINNER. BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR. MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR TOTALLY EMPTY. NO SIGNS OF ANY LEAKS OR FLUID ON THE GROUND. HAD IT TOWED TO FORD DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR THINKING IT WOULD BE COVERED BY THE FORD CPO POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN 15 YEARS HE HAS SEEN A MASTER CYLINDER FAIL ON AN EXPEDITION. I AGREE WITH OTHER OWNERS THIS SOUNDS VERY SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE FORD HAD WITH THE 2013-2014 YM F-150 PICK UP TRUCKS WITH THE 3.5L ECOBOOST ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH AND MAKING A TURN, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE CONTACT PUMPED THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE STOPPED. ALSO, THE BRAKE FLUID WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED A FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE LINE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BRAKE CYLINDER WAS FRACTURED AND WAS LEAKING BRAKE FLUID. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,450. *BF *TR

I WAS DRVING 70 MPH ON HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR STARTED TO LOOSE POWER AND A WRENCH SYMBOL APPEARED. I HAD NO POWER AND HAD TO ROLLED TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY. MESSAGE SAID TRANSMISSION TEMP 199 DEGREES. I HAD IT TOWED TO DEALER AND THEY ARE TELLING ME IT NEEDS A NEW THROTTLE BODY. I AM RETIRED AND ONLY DRIVE 2 TIMES A WEEK TO SEE GRAND CHILDREN, GO TO STORE OR DOCTORS AND I ONLY HAVE ABOUT 43,000 MILES. CAR HAS HAD ALL SCHRDULED MAINTANANCE. I SEE FORD HAD A RECALL FOR OTHER 2015 AND 2016 MODELS FOR THROTTLE BODY THAT EXPIRED IN 2017 BUT NOTHING FOR 2016 EXPEDITION. THIS IS GOING TO COST ME $450.00.

2/1/2019 I WAS DRIVING UP INTERSTATE I16 AT ABOUT 1PM. WHEN MY TRUCK STARTED STALLING. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO THE EMERGENCY LANE. I THEN NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE ENGINE BAY. A COUPLE OF OTHER DRIVERS STOPPED TO TRY TO RENDER ASSISTANCE WITH SMALL FIRE EXTINGUISHERS; TO NO AVAIL. THE VEHICLE SOON BECAME FULLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. BY THE TIME THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED, IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE ONLY THING THAT WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY WAS I RAN OVER A PLASTIC BAG BLOWING ACROSS THE INTERSTATE, LIKE A WALMART BAG. I HAD ASSUMED THAT THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER HAD ALREADY FILED THIS REPORT BUT THEY HAVE NOT.

AROUND JULY 2018 MY EXPEDITION STARTED JUST RANDOMLY CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH MY 2 CHILDREN IN THE CAR. AFTER GETTING THE CODES READ IT CAME UP AS THE THROTTLE BODY. WE HAD THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED AND IT SEEMED TO HELP UNTIL ABOUT NOV 2018 THEN INSTEAD OF CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WOULD JERK HARD AND THEN YOU COULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER ABOUT 50MPH. MULTIPLE THINGS STARTED FLASHING ON THE DASH LIKE THE WRENCH, TRACTION CONTROL, HILL DESCENT, AND CHECK ENGINE. WE GOT ALL CODES READ AND THIS TIME IT WAS THE MAP SENSOR. WE HAVE REPLACED THE MAP SENSOR 2 TIMES WITH THE MOST RECENT IN JAN 2019. NOW THE EXPEDITION HAS STARTED TO AGAIN FLASH TRACTION CONTROL, HILL DESCENT, WRENCH, CHECK ENGINE AND THE CODES ARE READING MAP SENSOR AGAIN!! WE HAVE SPENT $200 ON EACH SENSOR WE HAVE REPLACED WHICH HAVE BEEN 3! WE HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT AT THE END OF JAN TO FIND OUT AGAIN IF IT IS THE MAP SENSOR FOR A 3RD TIME OR IF IT IS SOME COMPUTER MALFUNCTION. WE HAVE NO MORE WARRANTY. FORD NEEDS TO LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM AS I HAVE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS AND IT IS DEFINITELY NOT SAFE WHEN I'M DRIVING WITH MY KIDS AND THE CAR JERKS AND THEN YOU CAN NO LONGER ACCELERATE.

THIS IS THE 3 RD TIME THE WRENCH TROUBLE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR LOSSES ALL POWER AND CAN ONLY IDLE ( ROUGHLY ). SHUT ENGINE OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND CAR STARTS UP AND GOES JUST FINE. BROUGHT IT BACK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID NO CODE IS STORED. NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM IS USUALLY A THROTTLE BODY BUT SINCE NO CODE THEY CAN'T REPLACE IT EVEN THOUGH I HAVE A FORD EXTENDED WARRANTY. SO I JUST WENT AND BOUGHT A THROTTLE BODY FOR $ 225.00 AND INSTALLED IT MYSELF . LET'S SEE WHAT HAPPENS . DATE INSTALLED 1/22/2019

THE " WRENCH " WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND THE CAR LOST POWER. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED . LUCKILY I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE.

THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTIONED AND WAS REPLACED AT 80000 MILES. REPLACEMENT THROTTLE BODY MALFUNCTIONED AFTER AN ADDITIONAL 24000. IT WAS ALSO REPLACED. BOTH REPLACEMENTS WERE PERFORMED BY AUTHORIZED FORD DEALERS.

THIS ISSUE BEGAN ABOUT A MONTH AGO ON MY COMMUTE HOME FROM WORK, ALL ENGINE POWER WAS LOST AS I CAME OFF THE FREEWAY, THE COMPUTER ALERTED WITH A WRENCH ICON. I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF, THEN AFTER A MINUTE RESTARTED. IT STARTED OK, I THEN USED AN ODB ADAPTER TO READ THE CODES, AND FOUND A SOFT (NOT PERMANENT) CODE P2112 (THROTTLE BODY STUCK CLOSED). I IMMEDIATELY CALL THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT. WHEN THEY GOT THE CAR, THE CODE WAS NO LONGER IN THE COMPUTER. THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC, DECLARED THAT THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING, CHARGED ME $200, AND SENT ME HOME. SECOND OCCURRENCE WAS ABOUT 10 DAYS AGO, AGAIN DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, THEN WHILE COMING UP TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT THE SAME FAILURE HAPPENED AGAIN. AFTER RESTARTING, AND DRIVING HOME, I BEGAN RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM. TODAY, WHILE RETURNING HOME IN THE RAIN DURING A 5 MILE DRIVE IT FAILED 5 TIMES, EACH TIME I HAD TO PULL OVER, SHUT IT DOWN THEN RESTART. NOW I HAVE A PERMANENT CODE STORED IN THE COMPUTER (P2112) AND AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX IT. I AM FAIRLY CERTAIN THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WILL BE REPLACED BY THE DEALERSHIP, BUT I AM OUT OF WARRANTY NOW, AND THEY WILL INDEED CHARGE ME. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND BELIEVE FORD SHOULD PROVIDE AN UPDATED PART THAT WILL RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. I SUSPECT THAT THIS WILL IN TIME CAUSE AN ACCIDENT, PERHAPS EVEN INJURY FOR SOMEONE. THIS IS DUE TO AUTO MANUFACTURERS REMOVING THE RATHER SIMPLE MECHANICAL LINKAGE FROM PEDAL TO THROTTLE AND TURNING THIS OVER TO A COMPUTER. TO BE SURE, IT IS THE COMPUTER THAT IS CREATING THE DANGEROUS CIRCUMSTANCES BY DISENGAGING ALL THROTTLE CONTROL WHEN THE THROTTLE BODY IS STICKING, FORCING THE DRIVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD (ASSUMING THERE IS A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER).

THE VEHICLE BLOWER SPEED CONTROLLER DOESN'T MATCH SETTING ON THE CLEMENT CONTROL. THE BLOWER WILL BLOW AT FULL SPEED OR NOT AT ALL. THIS HAPPENS NOT MATTER THE DISPOSITION TO THE VEHICLE. I TOOK THIS IN WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, NOTHING WAS FOUND. SECOND TIME OUT OF WARRANTY, STATED IT WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT WAS NEEDED. THIRD TIME THEY FOUND THE ISSUE WITH THE SPEED CONTROL AND THE WIRE HARNESS HAD MELTED (POTENTIAL FIRE ISSUES). NOW THAT THE ISSUE WAS FOUND, PALM COAST FORD REFUSES TO FIX IT UNDER WARRANTY. ON SEARCHING MOST COMMON ISSUES WITH THE FORD EXPEDITION I HAVE FOUND THAT THE BLOWER SPEED CONTROL IS AN ISSUE FOR MANY PEOPLE. FROM PERSONAL FINDING, IT IS A FIRE HAZARD, WHICH MAKES IT A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAD MENTIONED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. WHEN IT GOT MORE COMMON OF AN ISSUE AND MORE ANNOYING, I TOOK IT IN WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY TO HAVE IT DOCUMENTED.

BRAKE FLUID WARNING LIGHT CAME ON WHILE TAKING DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL, STOPPED AT GAS STATION TO CHECK. WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY EMPTY. NO VISIBLE SIGN OF LEAKS IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT, UNDER VEHICLE OR ON WHEELS/TIRES. REFILLED. WARNING LIGHT CAME ON MILE LATER. STOPPED AT ANOTHER GAS STATION, ALMOST COMPLETELY EMPTY AGAIN. BOUGHT MORE FLUID, REFILLED AND ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE HOME. ABOUT A MILE LATER WARNING LIGHT APPEARED AGAIN. ONCE HOME, BRAKE FLUID LEVEL WAS EMPTY AGAIN. LOOKED ON-LINE AND NOTICED THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2015 F-150 TRUCKS FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE (MASTER CYLINDER FAILURE, LEAKING FLUID TO BRAKE BOOSTER). REFILLED THEN ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE TO DEALERSHIP. STOPPED ONCE TO REFILL AFTER WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. GOT TO DEALERSHIP AND AS PULLING INTO SERVICE BAY BRAKE PEDAL HAD NO PRESSURE, WENT TO FLOOR AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. LUCKILY, WAS JUST ROLLING SLOW AND WAS ABLE TO BUT VEHICLE IN PARK TO STOP. VERY DANGEROUS IF THIS HAD OCCURRED ON STREET! FORD DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED SUSPICION, MASTER CYLINDER LEAKING IN BRAKE BOOSTER. SAME ISSUE AS 2015 F150 RECALL, BUT THERE IS NO RECALL FOR 2016 FORD EXPEDITIONS EVEN THOUGH THEY USE THE SAME DRIVETRAIN? VEHICLE OUT OF WARRANTY SO HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.

2016 FORD EXPEDITION. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO A MALFUNCTION WITH THE ACCELERATOR. *AS *TR

8/31/18: TRAVELING 55 MPH AND SUDDENLY LOST ALL PEDAL POWER ON I-40, ONLY ABLE TO COAST TO SHOULDER. WE WAITED 3 HOURS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR A TOW TRUCK WHILE TRAFFIC WHIZZED BY DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO OUR VEHICLE. VEHICLE TOWED TO FLAGSTAFF, AZ NEAREST CITY, HOWEVER IT WAS FRIDAY AFTER HOURS AND THE DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED UNTIL TUESDAY MORNING DUE TO THE LABOR DAY HOLIDAY. WE WERE STRANDED IN FLAGSTAFF UNTIL 9/4/18, UNABLE TO GET AUTHORIZATION FOR A RENTAL CAR UNTIL IT WAS DETERMINED IF IT WAS COVERED BY A WARRANTY. ULTIMATELY, THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME VEHICLE ON THE INTERNET. WE BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER AND RECALLED IF NECESSARY. PLEASE SEE LETTER BELOW

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER AND DECELERATES. THE POWERTRAIN WRENCH LIGHT COMES ON AND VEHICLE CODE IS SHOW P2112. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON 3 RECENT OCCASIONS. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE POWER IS GONE! AUG. 27, 2018, DRIVING HOME FROM MY SON'S FOOTBALL GAME I LOST ALL POWER ON A DARK WINDING COUNTRY ROAD AND HAD LIMITED ACCESS TO PULL OVER SAFELY WITH MY YOUNG CHILD IN THE BACKSEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS SHAKING AND WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TOWED. THE FOLLOWING DAY MY HUSBAND HOOKED HIS CODE READER AND THE CODE PRESENTED P2112 POWERTRAIN FAULT. IT STARTED FINE AND WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A GLITCH. ON WEDNESDAY AUGUST 28, 2018, WE HEADING TO THE AIRPORT AND IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING ABOUT 20 MINUTES IN. THIS TIME WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH AND HAD AN ABRUPT DECELERATION WITH SEMIS TRAVELING BEHIND US. WE QUICKLY PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ONE. WE WERE ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUE DOWN FOR ABOUT 3 MILES BEFORE IT DID IT AGAIN. AGAIN, WE TURNED VEHICLE OFF AND STARTED BACK UP. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND FORD NEEDS TO RECALL SINCE THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT OR LOSS OF LIFE.

THE CAR LOSE POWER ON THE HIGHWAY, WERE YOU HAVE TO STOP THE CAR

AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS OF AN INTERMITTENT ACCELERATION PROBLEM, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL. THE ENGINE DID NOT SHUT OFF BUT NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS PEDAL. I WAS ON A SIDE STREET JUST ABOUT TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY SO I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER AT THAT TIME. AFTER RESTARTING THE TRUCK I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME BUT THEN HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THE DEALER FOUND THAT THE THROTTLE BODY WAS DEFECTIVE AND NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. AFTER SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT OTHER FORD MODELS HAD THE SAME FAILURE WITH THE SAME PART ON THE SAME ENGINE BUT THE EXPEDITION WAS NOT SPECIFICALLY INCLUDED IN THE NHTSA RECALL.

WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE GOES INTO "LIMP MODE". THIS HAS HAPPENED 8 TIMES IN THE PAST WEEK AT SPEEDS OF 50MPH OR EVEN 15MPH DRIVING NORMAL ON A HIGHWAY, COUNTRY ROAD, AND ENTRANCE TO A PARKING LOT. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS ABSOLUTELY ZERO POWER AND DRIVER MUST PLACE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND COAST TO A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER. ONCE PULLED OVER, THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE TURNED COMPLETELY OFF AND RESTARTED. AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE RUNS VERY ROUGH AND CEL IS ON. THE CODE FOR THE ENGINE LIGHT DISPLAYS THE CODE : 2112 WHICH IS THE THROTTLE ACTUATOR IS STUCK CLOSED. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, THIS HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE FOR YEARS AND NOT BEING TAKEN OF. THIS COULD EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IF SOMEONE IS GOING 70MPH IN TRAFFIC, ON A BRIDGE, OR EVEN 45MPH IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE ON THE INTERSTATE.

CATASTROPHIC BRAKE FAILURE DURING NORMAL OPERATION ON A CITY STREET I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP DUE TO A LOW FLUID LIGHT BUT BY THE TIME I WAS AT A SAFE PLACE TO STOP THE BRAKES HAD ALMOST COMPLETELY FAILED. I HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER. WAS TOLD THE MASTER CYLINDER, BRAKE BOOSTER, VALVE ASSEMBLY, AND VACUUM BRAKE SENSOR ALL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE MC WAS LEAKING INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER CAUSING THEM TO FAIL. THIS IS THE EXACT ISSUE THAT THE 2013-2014 F150S (VERY SIMILAR PLATFORM) HAD A RECALL FOR. HTTPS://MEDIA.FORD.COM/CONTENT/FORDMEDIA/FNA/US/EN/NEWS/2016/05/25/FORD-MOTOR-COMPANY-ISSUES-ONE-SAFETY-RECALL-AND-ONE-SAFETY-COMPL.HTML SERVICE TECH STATED THE MC HAD LIKELY BEEN LEAKING FOR SOME TIME TO CAUSE THE FAILURE. I HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AT THE DEALER WHICH INCLUDED A FULL BRAKE INSPECTION WHICH WAS GIVEN A CLEAN BILL OF HEALTH LESS THAN ONE MONTH PRIOR TO THIS FAILURE.

VEHICLE STOPPED WHEN IN TRAFFIC, MULTIPLE TIMES. DEALER IS REPLACING THE ELECTRONIC CARBURETOR SENSOR WHICH ELECTRONICALLY CONNECTS THE GAS PEDAL TO THE ENGINE. SAID THEY HAVE HAD TO DO THIS ON SEVERAL VEHICLES LATELY. MY SON OWNS A 2015 F150 AND HIS TRUCK HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM LAST WEEK. MUST BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM IF SEVERAL VEHICLES IN OUR SMALL TOWN HAVE HAD THE SAME FAILURE.

WHILE DRIVING THE GAS PEDAL GETS STUCK AND IMMEDIATELY LOSES POWER TO ACCELERATE. THE YELLOW CHECK ENGINE WRENCH COMES ON AS THE ENGINE SPUTTERS. YOUR ONLY OPTION IS TO COAST TO A STOP AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. THIS COMES WITH NO WARNING AND IS VERY DANGEROUS AS WE ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED AS WE WERE GOING 40 MPH AND JUST LOST EVERYTHING IN A MOMENTS NOTICE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN 3 MONTHS. THE FIRST TIME WE WERE GOING 35 MPH ACCELERATING AND SHUT DOWN AND HAD TO STOP TRAFFIC TO RESTART. WE HAVE IT SCHEDULED TO GO INTO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW. BUT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS AN ISSUE ON SEVERAL FORD VEHICLES WITH A RECALL ON MANY, JUST NOT THIS ONE YET. THE DIAGNOSTIC WAS COMPLETED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP AND IT TURN OUT TO BE THE THROTTLE BODY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUES WITH FORD CARS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. LOSING CONTROL OF ACCELERATION CAN BE DEADLY DEPENDING ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND STARTED UP AGAIN THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY.

WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK WHEN THE "LOW BRAKE FLUID" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON GOING 45 MPH. LESS THAT ONE MINUTE LATER WHEN SHE WENT TO STOP AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN. THANKFULLY SHE WAS GOING UP HILL AND ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO STOP SAFELY. CHECKED THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER RESERVOIR AND THERE WAS NO FLUID IN IT. CHECKED THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER FOR VISIBLE LEAKS AND DID NOT SEE ANY FLUID.

WHIE DRIVING 2016 EXPEDITION EL THE LIGHT CAME ON SAYING THAT THE BRAKE FLUID WAS LOW SHORTLY AFTER THE BRAKES WENT OUT COMPLETELY ,PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR.THANKFULLY USED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND DOWN SHIFTING TO GET CAR STOPPED .WAS VERY FORTUNATE.MY MECHANIC CHECKED CAR -NO LEAKS OF BRAKE FLUID EVEN THOU THE SYSTEM WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY.HIS DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAD FAILED AND THAT ALL OF THE BRAKE FLUID WAS SYPHONED OUT AND IN TO THE ENGINE. VERY SCARY LITTLE WARNING JUST COMPLETE FAILURE

APPROXIMATELY 21000 MILES, SUDDEN AND COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. A WARNING MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH "LOW BRAKE FLUID". I TOUCHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT DEPRESSED COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. I INSPECTED THE VEHICLE, NO VISIBLE LEAKS AT ANY OF THE WHEELS OR IN THE ENGINE BAY. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. REFILLED RESERVOIR ONLY TO WATCH IT DRAIN WITH NO VISIBLE LEAKS (INTO THE BOOSTER?)

BRAKE FAILURE. 2016 EXPEDITION ECOBOOST, CAR NOTIFICATION OF 'LOW BRAKE FLUID'. EVEN AFTER ADDING BRAKE FLUID PURCHASED FROM FORD DEALER; THE FLUID KEEPS DECREASING ALL WITHOUT ANY VISIBLE LEAKAGE AROUND CAR AND/OR TIRES/ETC. EVENTUALLY AND QUICKLY YOU WILL QUICKLY GET ZERO BRAKE RESPONSE; THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL GO TO BOTTOM OF FLOOR AND IN MY CASE; THERE WAS WHITE CLOUDS COMING OUT OF OUR EXHAUST. ZERO BRAKING ABILITY. WE HAD OUR VEHICLE PARKED ON A FLAT PARKING LOT AND AFTER CHECKING THE FLUID, AFTER FILLING IT UP; TURNED CAR ON; HAD EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE ENABLED AND THEN PUTTING IT IN DRIVE; JUST TO TEST BRAKES; THE CAR ROLLED BUT ZERO ABILITY TO BRAKE, THUS REAPPLIED PARKING BRAKE TO CONTROL VEHICLE TO A STOP. ALL WHILE ENGINE APPEARS TO SOUND OK; WITH AN OCCASIONAL 'STUTTER' WHILE WHITE SMOKE COMES FROM THE TAILPIPE.

DRIVING ON MAJOR FREEWAY IN HOUSTON RUSH HOUR. LOST POWER, WRENCH POPPED UP AND SAID SEE MANUAL. ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAD TO WAIT IN TRAFFIC AND RESTART VEHICLE. COULD NOT GO OVER 40 MPH WITHOUT LOSING POWER AGAIN. APPARENTLY EVERY OTHER 2016 FORD HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR A THROTTLE BODY DEFECT EXCEPT THE EXPEDITION. OUR ISSUE WAS A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY.

SUDDEN AND COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. TRAVELING WITH THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN A WARNING MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH "LOW BRAKE FLUID". I TOUCHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT DEPRESSED COMPLETELY TO THE FLOOR. I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE USING ENGINE BRAKING AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. INSPECTED THE VEHICLE, NO VISIBLE LEAKS AT ANY OF THE WHEELS OR IN THE ENGINE BAY. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS EMPTY. HAD VEHICLE TAKEN TO CLOSEST FORD DEALER. WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A DAMAGED MASTER CYLINDER THAT LEAKED INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER AND HAD TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED.

WHEN DRIVING PAST CELL TOWERS THE SATELLITE SIGNAL GOES OUT REPEATEDLY. VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. EXAMPLE ON I-5 AT 38.475641, -121.504846, ON BUSINESS-80 AT 38.571184, -121.468347, ON I-80 AT 38.663596, -121.357112, AND ON WALERGA RD SOUTH OF ELVERTA BLVD IN SACRAMENTO COUNTY. THERE IS A FORD SSM FOR THIS, AND WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN THE TIME RANGE SPECIFIED, I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT DOESNT' APPLY TO MY VIN. - HTTPS://STATIC.NHTSA.GOV/ODI/TSBS/2016/SB-10092559-5448.PDF SSM 46016

THE ALUMINUM TAILGATE/HATCH SHOWS SIGNS OF CORROSION. FORD DID COVER IT EVENTUALLY AFTER ESCALATING IT. HOWEVER, OTHER OWNERS ARE REPORTING THIS ISSUE ON MODELS 2000-2017.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DO NOT ADEQUATELY LIGHT UP THE ROAD AHEAD. YOU CAN BARELY SEE ANYTHING ON THE ROAD IN FRONT OF THE CAR. I MUST USE THE HIGH BEAMS IF I WISH TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD OF ME. I HAVE HEARD THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MANY EXPEDITIONS. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION. IT OCCURS WHETHER THE CAR IS ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A "NEW" USED CAR. A FEW WEEKS AFTER I BOUGHT IT, THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE AIRBAGS HAD BEEN TAMPERED WITH BY SOMEONE. THEY DID SOME RESEARCH, AND THEY AUCTION HOUSE THEY BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM NEVER DISCLOSED THAT IT HAD BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. THEY TRIED TO COVER UP THAT THE AIRBAGS HAD BEEN DEPLOYED, THE CUT AND SPLICED THE WIRING TO BYPASS SAFETY RELAYS/SWITCHES SO A DIAGNOSTIC TESTER WOULD NOT CATCH IT. I DROVE AROUND FOR 6 MONTHS WITH MY TWO CHILDREN (BOTH UNDER THE AGE OF 3) WITH NO WORKING AIRBAGS! IF YOU CALL ME, I CAN HAVE THE DEALERSHIP CONFIRM EVERYTHING.

THROTTLE BODY FAILURE. HAS HAPPENED OVER 8 TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON BUSY HIGHWAYS. VEHICLE LOOSES THROTTLE CONTROL WHILE DRIVING. IT FORCES YOU TO PULL OVER AND TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTART IT TO RESET IT. VERY DANGEROUS.

THE SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE PARKED. THE VISOR WAS CLOSED SO GLASS DID NOT ENTER THE CAR. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW, AND HAS 15,000 MILES ON IT. THE SUNROOF GLASS HAD EXPANDED OUTWARDS, AS SEEN IN THE PICTURE, AND DID NOT HAVE ANY CRACKS DUE TO IMPACTS PRIOR TO THE GLASS FAILURE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET I LOST POWER AND CONTROL TO THE ENGINE. CONTROL OF THE ENGINE IS LOST WHEN WITHOUT WARNING ACCELERATION IS LOST. THE CAR WILL SLOW UNTIL ABOUT 5 MILES AN HOUR SPEED. THE RPMS WILL FLUCTUATE UP AND DOWN AND STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR DOES NOTHING. NO WARNING IS GIVEN, AND I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE DIAGNOSTIC WAS COMPLETED AT A FORD DEALERSHIP AND IT TURN OUT TO BE THE THROTTLE BODY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUES WITH FORD CARS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. LOSING CONTROL OF ACCELERATION CAN BE DEADLY DEPENDING ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES. ONCE THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND STARTED UP AGAIN THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN, ONCE YOU HAVE IT, THE PROBLEM WILL BE THERE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED AND HOPE THAT THE ISSUES NEVER RETURNS.

THE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL FAILED CAUSING LOUD GRINDING NOIISE

STARTED CAR LEFT MY HOME AND PULLED OUT ONTO THE ROAD. I BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I REACH A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH AND I FELT A SLIGHT SHUTTER AND SAW A WARNING INDICATOR WRENCH LIGHT UP ON THE CAR. I DEPRESSED THE THROTTLE AND FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS UNRESPONSIVE TO THROTTLE INPUT. I HAD TO COAST ALONG TO A STOP THANKFULLY I WAS IN A SAFE AREA WHEN THIS OCCURRED. IF THIS EVENT WERE TO OCCUR IN CERTAIN SCENARIOS THE OUTCOME COULD BE FATAL. I WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND RESTART AND I NOW HAD NORMAL FUNCTIONALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP WHERE THE INFORMED THAT THIS WAS CAUSED BY A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY CONTROL. FROM DOING SOME ONLINE RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN VERY PREVALENT ON OTHER FORD MODELS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE CONTACT EXPERIENCED UNINTENDED ACCELERATION EVEN AFTER THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO A PINE TREE. THE VEHICLE REMAINED AT FULL ACCELERATION UNTIL IT WAS DE-POWERED MANUALLY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER, BUT THE DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS HAD NOT YET BEEN DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000.

SMELL OF EXHAUST INSIDE VEHICLE WHENEVER REAR WING WINDOWS ARE OPEN; GENERALLY OCCURS DURING ACCELERATION OR IDLING. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE VEHICLE PURCHASE IN AUGUST 2016.

SINCE THE PURCHASE OF MY NEW EXPEDITION I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE POOR PERFORMANCE OF THE HEADLIGHTS. THE EXPEDITION HAS THE PROJECTOR STYLE HEADLIGHTS AND THE LIGHT OUTPUT IS TERRIBLE. DRIVING IN THE WINTER MONTHS WITH RAIN OR SNOW THE VISIBILITY IS NEAR ZERO. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER THE DAY AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR, SPRING 2016, AND THEY MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS. HOWEVER NOW THAT IT IS GETTING DARK EARLIER I FIND MYSELF DRIVING IN THE DARK MORE OFTEN AND THE VEHICLE IS NEAR UNSAFE. I FEAR THAT I WILL NOT SEE AN OBJECT OR ANIMAL IN THE ROAD. THE CAR HAS BEEN BACK AT THE DEALER FOR OVER A WEEK, THEY HAVE TRIED REPLACING THE HEADLIGHTS BUT I FEAR IT IS A DESIGN FLAW. I PICKED UP THE CAR THIS EVENING AND WHEN I STARTED DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD I HAD TO DOUBLE CHECK TO CONFIRM THE HEADLIGHTS WERE ON. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER, THE GENERAL MANAGER ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED THE HEADLIGHTS LOOKED LIKE A PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW SO I WOULD EXPECTED IT NOT TO HAVE THESE ISSUES. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY ATTENTION YOU CAN OFFER TO THIS UNSAFE PROBLEM. *TR

ON 11-30-2016 WITH CLEAR WEATHER AT ABOUT 3 PM TRAVELING AT TRAFFIC SPEED OF 70 MPH ON I610 SOUTH LOOP EAST HARRIS COUNTY TX (CITY OF HOUSTON) IN THE 3RD LANE RIGHT FROM THE RIGHT SIDE SHOULDER OF 4 LANES, A "WRENCH" ICON COME ON THE DISPLAY AND SAID TO CONTACT THE DEALER. IMMEDIATELY AT THE SAME TIME THE EXPEDITION LOST ALL ACCELERATOR POWER. THE PEDAL WENT LIMP. A HAZARDOUS, PERILOUS DRIFT ACROSS THE ONCOMING 2 RIGHT LANES TO THE SHOULDER WAS TERRIFYING . BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER WITHOUT BEING HIT AND/OR CAUSING A MULTI CAR WRECK AND PROBABLE FATALITIES. THE CAR MOTOR CONTINUED RUNNING, BUT THERE WAS NO ACCELERATION, NO POWER TO MOVE THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE FORD DEALER WHERE THE THROTTLE BODY IDENTIFIED AS THE FAILURE AND WAS REPLACED. THE ORIGINAL PART THROTTLE BODY REPLACED WAS PART # BL3Z*9E9268A. THE NEW THROTTLE BODY IS PART # BL3Z*9E926*B. I HAVE HAD THIS FORD EXPEDITION FOR 11 MONTHS. I LEARNED MANY THROTTLE BODY PARTS ON FORD EXPLORERS HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR INFORMATION. THERE WAS NO LISTINGS OF 2016 EXPEDITIONS HAVING THIS LIFE THREATENING FAILURE. I DO HOPE AND PRAY THAT NO ONE IS HURT OR KILLED BEFORE THIS SITUATION IS CORRECTED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED AND DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND STALLED AS THE WRENCH WARNING ICON ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY FAILED. THE THROTTLE BODY WAS REPLACED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

WINDSHIELD SEAL FLIES OUT AT 55MPH OR GREATER. CAR BRAND NEW. DEALERS (ASHEVILLE FORD NC) DO NOT KNOW PROPER REPAIR AND DISMISSIVE OF DANGER AND CUSTOMER. THE DEALER FALSELY MARKS PAPERS AS WARRANTEE REPAIR WHEN A CALL TO FOR SAYS THAT VIN NUMBERED CAR HAD NO REPORT OF WARRANTEE REPAIR. FRAUDULENT REPORTING. FURTHER REPAIRS DON'T WORK. ONE FORD DEALER, CORRECTLY, SAID WINDSHIELD AND SEAL MUST BE REPLACED AS A UNIT. DEALERS IGNOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, A LOUD EXPLOSION SUDDENLY OCCURRED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE THIRD ROW WINDOW HAD EXPLODED AND SHATTERED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE WINDOW WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,096.

WHILE IN MOTION THE TRUCK DIVES TO THE RIGHT. THIS IS NOT CONSTANT BUT THE VEH SEEMS TO HAVE ITS OWN MIND AS TO WHEN IT DIVES OFF THE HWY. THIS HAPPENS FROM THE LEFT, CENTER AND RIGHT LANES. SPEEDS DO NOT MATTER, LOW OR HIGH. 4 VISITS TO A FORD DEALER AND A COMPLAINT BUT THE MATTER IS NOT BEING SOLVED. THIS IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE

LEASED CAR 11/2016. ON 1-6-16, COMPLETE LOSS OF BRAKE POWER, NO WARNING, NO WARNING LIGHTS. SUDDEN. AVOIDED COLLISION. DEALER FOUND VACUUM PUMP FAILURE, FIXED. THEN HAPPENED AGAIN 1 MONTH LATER 2-2-16, AGAIN ACCIDENT AVOIDED. BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO FLOOR W/O ANY PRESSURE. I AM TOLD BY CUST SERVICE THAT THEY FOUND SAME PROBLEM. THEY ARE TRYING MAKE US TAKE CAR BACK. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT BRAKING SYSTEM FLAWED AND CAR UNSAFE. WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT CAR BACK. BROILED IN DEBATE BETWEEN CUST SERVICE AND DEALER. DEALER TRYING MAKE US FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR DEFECTIVE BREAKS, AND CLAIMING LEMON LAW REQUIRES 4 EVENTS.

MY 2016 FORD EXPEDITION EL LTD V-6 3.5L WITH 354 ODOMETER MILES PRODUCED 4 MINOR PRELUDE ENGINE SURGES WITHIN A COUPLE HOURS ON THE ROADWAYS BEFORE IT WENT FULL THROTTLE 5 TIMES WITHIN A COUPLE MINUTES. IT SUDDENLY, AND WITHOUT WARNING, RAN DOWN MY WIFE AFTER SQUISHING HER AGAINST THE GARAGE-BEDROOM WALL (WHICH WAS DESTROYED) IN REVERSE, PLACED ME IN TRAFFIC DANGER WHEN IT RACED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, PLACED A WITNESS DRIVING IN THE STREET IN DANGER AS IT BACKED UP, AND WHILE TURNING INTO MY DRIVEWAY FORWARD, PLOWED HALF ITS LENGTH INTO A NEIGHBORS HOUSE, AND DESTROYED MOST OF ITS EXTERIOR AS A RESULT OF THE FORWARD AND REVERSE COLLISIONS. THE BRAKES WERE ABSOLUTELY USELESS AND COULD NOT BEGIN TO OVERPOWER THE INDIVIDUAL ENGINE FULL POWER SURGES. THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED DESPITE THE FRONTAL IMPACT EXCEEDING 15 MPH. THE FULL THROTTLE ENGINE SURGE DURATIONS APPROXIMATED 6 SECONDS EACH; AND, THE TEMPORARY RETURNS TO IDLE LASTED 2-4 SECONDS. MY WIFE IS QUITE INJURED; BUT, COULD EASILY HAVE BEEN KILLED. I WAS PLANNING A HEAD-ON LARGE OAK TREE RAMMING TO STOP THE VEHICLE ONCE-AND-FOR-ALL. OTHER PEOPLE AND FORD NEED TO BE ADVISED OF THIS POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP SITUATION. PLEASE HELP.
