We got our Expedition about a week and a half ago now, and things looked great on the test drive, and the carfax showed that the car had been religiously maintained. But the dealer delivered it to our house, and after hooking up the Ford app, we got a notice in the app of a powertrain malfunction. There was nothing on the dash of the truck itself, and it seemed to drive fine, and after a couple of days the notice disappeared in the app. But today we went out for a short ride, and after about 3 or 4 miles on the highway, we got a "Check Manual" warning, along with "Pre-collision unavailable" and "Drive mode unavailable" warnings, with the yellow wrench. The truck drove pretty erratically at that point, feeling like it was misfiring and just struggling to run smoothly in general. I turned it off for a minute, and upon restarting it, the warnings came back. We made a stop on the way back home, and came back about 20 minutes later, and upon restarting, no warnings or messages at all, and nothing showing up in the app.
I have an OBD reader coming tomorrow, so that I can pull the codes and see what's going on, as some quick googling was more or less inconclusive I'm hoping that it's nothing significant.
