    2020 Limited Almost No Acceleration when Cold

    Yea, there's a delay when putting in D. I usually wait until I feel the tranny engage (the engine RPM drops slightly) before hitting the gas pedal. I don't expect this heavy truck to respond like a sports car, so I'm just patient with it.

    Adaptive Cruise Control Scare

    Just use it when going steady state straight down the highway

    Expedition Going into Deep Sleep - Battery Low

    I would not worry about leaving the car at the airport. The point of the battery management system is to sacrifice some convenience features to save the battery for the important job of starting the car. Besides, I'm sure the parking facility has a jump start pack in case of emergency anyway. Or...

    My mostly unbiased comparison - Expy vs. a week in a Grand Wagoneer

    Thanks for pointing it out!

    Expedition Going into Deep Sleep - Battery Low

    Very simple solution, assuming you have the patience: keep the Expy on a battery maintainer when parked. Assuming you have the facilities, when parking the car, pop the hood and connect up a maintainer. I connected a pigtail to my battery terminals so all I do is plug in the charger and forget...

    My mostly unbiased comparison - Expy vs. a week in a Grand Wagoneer

    Maybe I missed it, but what year/model/mileage on both cars? Yes, the Grand Wagoneer is more like the Navigator than the Expy, except maybe in Platinum Trim. I too followed the Wagoneer when it came out and was intrigued, but at launch there were so many hiccups, technical and production issues...

    3rd row seat not folding

    Are you trying this with the car off? One time, mine didn't go down until I started the engine and then it worked. It could be a weak 12V battery.

    Battery Life PSA

    FordPass App reports car going into PowerSave Mode. Same for Owner's Dashboard on Ford.com website. You lose Vehicle Location and other functions of the App. Just hook up the weak battery to a tender when parked. All functions return to Normal when battery returns to fully charged state.

    Engine Covers?

    That's the definition of shrinkflation

    Help, I don’t want to have to get rid of!

    So, you're saying you press the hard brake pedal and press the power button, but all you get is battery on, not crank? As if you pressed the power button without touching the brake pedal? With the car at dealer, these suggestions will not do you any good, but: when you press the brake pedal, do...

    Battery or other question

    I don't think you said how old your car/battery was, but mine is a 2020, so 4 years on the original battery. We bought it December 2022 and my battery started doing this power save thing the day I purchased it. At first I didn't bother because it always started without any hesitation. The only...

    Edmunds Comparison

    A lot of this comes down to brand loyalty. We rode in a long wheelbase GMC Yukon(?) and I thought the ride was awful. At the time, Jeep only had the standard wheelbase, though I think that's corrected now.

    2019 New Owner Questions

    How many miles on her? Just change the rear diff lube. Have you tried drive mode gravel/grass/snow to see if there's a whine from the front diff too? In this mode, the front diff is always providing torque to the fronts. You can see it if you go to the off-road power distribution display.

    No complaints

    My first Ford was a 2001 Excursion 7.3 diesel. It rode like a buckboard. My first Expy was a used 2015 EL Limited 4x4 Towing with 110K miles. It was beat to sh*t and rode like it, bouncing like a roller coaster literally throwing passengers out of their seats! Traded it on our current 2020 MAX...
