    2017 rear wiper, a bit of a unicorn...

    Sounds like a great fix for my 2017, THANKS! This silly wiper is same issue that befell my previous GMC Acadia rear wiper assembly.

    Shift Flare on 1-2 shift?

    Probably best to ask the Service Manager if you have any faith in him. I have not had any more issues to date and have put 6000 miles on it since valve body replaced, but I took it in the day after the problem started

    Shift Flare on 1-2 shift?

    Ok, suggest get dealer to check for transmission Valve Body failure. Mine went out at 13,000 miles after month in NC mountains using M to control speed on steep mountain descents (previously had burnt up brakes on GMC Acadia using brakes alone). Your 2017 symptoms sounded similar to mine but I...

    Shift Flare on 1-2 shift?

    Ok, what year and mileage is this Expedition? Symptoms on my 2017 Limited transmission woes were somewhat similar to this.

    Explorers making folks sick? News article:

    I eliminated the Explorer before I bought the Expedition for that reason. I believe it is not only extra body drilling that lets the fumes into the vehicle, it is the engine compartment with the 3.5 Turbo front wheel drive used by police and others has an overstuffed engine compartment with...

    Surging in Manual Gears

    My 2017 Limited was doing this when in manual between 2nd an 3rd coming down Sugar Mountain (5500' peak) NC high country. At 13,000 miles as reported on this site the transmission failed and required valve body replacement after transmission acted like was popping out of gear. If transmission...

    1.5 Million Ford Vehicle Recall Announced for 6 Speed Violent Downshifts

    The reference to 2019s were Mustangs and others in the articles I read earlier-now they are saying the other recalls in Fords and Lincolns this am are minor issues other than running gear. Given the raft of parts Ford passes back and forth between F150 and Expedition, I'd be really surprised if...

    1.5 Million Ford Vehicle Recall Announced for 6 Speed Violent Downshifts

    This recall apparently covers F150's 2011-2013 and other 6 speed automatic transmissions up through 2019!! The symptoms sound just like the transmission failure in my 2017 Expedition. See article on USA Today site. Injuries are involved according to the article.

    Ford Expedition (and others) TSB SSM 46451 2009-2017 6R80; 6R100, 6R140

    Ford announced 1.5 Million vehicle this am including 2011-2013 F150's and various other vehicles up through 2019 ones for "sudden downshifts to 1st Gear" causing accidents and injuries including "whiplash" Given how violent the transmission acted in my 2017 Expedition Limited I sense that our...

    Ford Expedition (and others) TSB SSM 46451 2009-2017 6R80; 6R100, 6R140

    Well the main point on starting this post was the manufacturers generally not advising owners of their vehicles of TSB details that would allow them to take preventative action to deal with possible safety or other faults before the Feds order them to, which can be a slow, prolonged process. Of...

    Ford Expedition (and others) TSB SSM 46451 2009-2017 6R80; 6R100, 6R140

    I seem to be having a lot of odd trouble with my two newer vehicles, including a 2017 Expedition Limited. My previous thread on my transmission failure at 13,000 miles described the circumstances and the fix the dealer did of "replacing the valve body" at N/C to me was completely unexpected as...

    Transmission Shifting

    Suggest see my posts on recent transmission failure on my 2017 Limited with 13K miles. Started shifting rough or seeming to pop out of gear. Ford dealer had to replace valve body in transmission, so far works ok but really concerns us on a vehicle supposed to be long lasting even if under...

    The "Auto Stop-Start" is so annoying!!!!

    It could be worse, at least it is defeatable on the dashboard, unlike GM where their designers figured they were smarter than the average driver regarding STOP/START!! And just wait, I read the 2020 Explorer (it will spread to the Expedition likely) will have sensors to visually read speed...

    2017 Expedition Limited 13K and Torque Converter Shudder?

    Ok, picked Expedition back up today (1/7/19) pm. Seems to run ok, shudder gone, shifts snap nicely. Parts required besides fluid: AL3Z-7G276-D (valve body I believe) and 6L2Z-7G276-AA Connector along with 7 quarts trans fluid XT-10-QLVC This valve body part number is listed to have been built...
