    My new 2018 Expedition AC

    No, we didn't buy the Pacifica. Mostly for money reasons. We loaded up the Rubicon with almost every option, so we chose the Kia Sedona and paid just $34,000 for a fully loaded end of model year SX-L. The best deal we had on the Pacifica was a Limited for $44,000. After owning many SUVs (2 Land...

    My new 2018 Expedition AC

    We replaced it with 2 vehicles! We bought a Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited JL and a minivan. I have not regretted it for a moment. The minivan does everything the Expy did (for us!) only easier to drive and more economical. The Rubicon is just a kick and fun all day long. So far we've had zero...

    My new 2018 Expedition AC

    This was a thread I started. We never got the problem resolved. Found out the vehicle was built in January of 2018 and needed the entire AC system evacuated and replaced for contaminated coolant. Between that and several other problems, we decided to dump the Expedition. We traded it last...

    Contaminated Refrigerant Issue

    So this is our situation with our vehicle too. I've posted more than once here about our A/C problems. Our manuf date is January of 2018. We haven't taken it in yet but I'll update when we do. Between this, the misaligned quarter panel and the bubbling paint, I think we'll be dumping the...

    A/C not working - intermittant

    For me it comes down to the friction involved in getting the dealer to "recreate" and then actually do something about it. I'm not in the mood to argue with service departments right now, lol. Because if I do, I'm also going to have to discuss the paint bubbles and the misaligned front quarter...

    A/C not working - intermittant

    Just thought I'd give an update.... I did get a digital thermometer and was able to get a video of the system operating normally and another with the system blowing hot air for 15 mins. And then it stopped doing it. No joke. So the video that I have which was almost a month ago now is the...

    Seat Cooler Noise

    This for me too. On day one of ownership I was thinking..."this is going to drive me nuts!" Now I never even hear it.

    A/C not working - intermittant

    We haven't taken ours to the dealer yet. We're going to take Mike's suggestion above and see if the compressor is running when it happens. I also fully expect the dealer to say they couldn't recreate so we've bought a digital thermometer with a wire with plans to video tape the system behavior...

    Paint bubbles/blisters

    Grrrrr! I posted recently with an intermittent AC problem that I haven't been able to even talk to the dealer about yet and now I've found 3 paint bubbles on the passenger rear quarter panel. I've attached a pic of one. All 3 are similar and in the same area.

    How you liking those massaging seats!?

    I guess I'll be the voice of disagreement...haha! I thought this was a feature I really had to have. I've used it once and all it did was irritate me. We've only been on 1 long trip though. Most days around town I don't even think about it. It's become one of those things that is not going to...

    2018 Expedition platinum Max A/C problem

    Being someone who is experiencing an A/C issue in our new Expy, I'm interested in this thread. However! The only 2 people who personally said they had a problem and posted on this thread posted their 1st forum post here, then have never returned to give an update. Then lobsenza posts his first...

    A/C not working - intermittant

    Did it again today. 84 degrees outside and it blew hot for 11 mins. It’s definitely got a problem.

    Thank you for this! It doesn't appear to be a widespread problem since not many here are experiencing it.

    A/C not working - intermittant

    Ok, let me see if I can clarify further...it DOES blow cool immediately and it does so most of the time. It blew cold today, as did the Tundra. Thus the title of my thread that the problem is intermittent and my original post saying it did it 4 times in the last week...because you see, I drove...

    A/C not working - intermittant

    Mmmm....is that just the case for the Ford Expedition in particular? Because we haven't experienced this in a single vehicle we've ever owned (2 Sequoias, Land Cruiser, QX80, 2 Grand Cherokees, a Highlander...3/4 ton trucks, 1/2 ton trucks...) Sure, it takes awhile to cool a hot vehicle, but...

    A/C not working - intermittant

    Anyone else having A/C issues in their 2018? 4 times in the last week I've gotten into the Expedition (Platinum, 4wd, shorty) and it blows only hot air. Every other time it blows cold air from the get go. Fiddling with the system doesn't fix the problem. It resolves itself and starts blowing...

    Ford Expedition Platinum CCD Question?

    It’s the smaller knob below the gear shifter. (Closer to you). Turn it and you’ll see the selections in the dash display.

    Ford Reports Record Sales

    This was our experience. It took almost 3 mos for us to even find a platinum to test drive. They are on the lot for just a few days! Well, except for the black on black we didn’t want. The platinum we bought was a dealer trade and wasn’t even entered into their stock yet. They had it less than...

    prices?

    Our doc fee was $80 which was acceptable. $500...not so much.
