    Ugh P07E6 = Trans Time

    Mine was rebuilt at 97k miles under Ford ESP. Now about 10k miles later, it feels a little wonky in the 3,4,5 shift while accelerating slowly and the shift into 5 is a little rough. I have not taken back to dealership yet. The issue is not terrible. Make sure to check what warranty you get on...

    Water damage short help!

    Yikes, your comprehensive insurance might cover this accidental damage. So sorry this happened.

    Power fold seat control module location (SCMJ)

    My power fold 3rd row seats stopped working in the up position. My dealer replaced the electronic module to correct the problem and commented after I asked that it was on the back right side. My vehicle was covered under extended ESP warranty, so I do not know the regular cost of this...

    2026 Ford Illuminated Keyless Entry

    My impression, Ford has really implemented big cost reductions possibly to offset the new instrument cluster blue cruise on most all trim levels. My 2018 Limited, has fog lights, running boards deploy only on the side of vehicle where a door is opened, CCD Suspension, has limited slip...

    Transmission got hot - fluid everywhere

    Had transmission fluid changed out with new filter on my 2018 Expedition a couple years ago around 70k miles. Perhaps 6 months afterwords while towing our 21’ boat on the freeway in hot weather my transmission started to approach 230. My transmission had never gotten this hot before under...

    Getting ready to replace pads

    Just had Quicklane replace my Front pads and rotors on my 2018 Expedition for the first time at 107k miles. I’m happy stating OEM with that longevity.

    Rear Entertainment Sytem

    I have never attempted to connect my phone to my RES. However I have connected a Amazon Fire Stick via the HDMI port on the driver side screen. Then using the vehicle (ATT) WiFi stream movies via Netflix. I believe you could connect a fire stick to a phone WiFi. I am just curious what your...

    Just did a front brake pad and rotor replacement...sort of a pain.

    Took my 2018 Expedition to Quicklane for oil change and they said front brakes and rotors should be replaced. Checked my service records, first time to do the fronts @ 107k miles. Wow!

    Catalytic Converter Help - 2017 Expedition XLT 3.5 Turbo

    I had a Ford Service Advisor comment that they have used aftermarket cats to fix used Ford vehicles for resale and commonly had issues down the road.

    Transmission Debate - NEW / REMAN / REBUILD

    I agree with mx10166 above, I had mine rebuilt by the dealer under warranty. They only changed out parts that needed replaced. For example most clutch packs were not replaced. With a new transmission, everything is new. I agree that a new unit most likely has new CF Drum and another internal...

    Gen 4 running hotter than standard operating temps

    I have a 2018, temp gauge started showing temperatures (numerals) above the bar gauge on a trip to Colorado driving about 80mph going on upward grade. The following year saw the same thing when pulling a 21’ boat at freeway speeds. A Ford tech said this shouldn’t happen. The dealer could not...

    Expedition v Navigator - 2025 - Questions/Opinions?

    IMO, the lower level Platinum is what used to be called Limited. Suspect marketing was trying to gain perception that the Platinum ( lower tier) priced favorably to top of the line Chevy or GMC versions.

    25-26, yay or nay

    Aggiegrad05- Excellent observation! Also own a 2018 and have to agree, the issues brought up on the 25’s are few and far between versus the 2018’s. As the owner of a 2018, I feel hesitant to buy first year new models. With that said, my truck was fine until about the two year mark. Now at...

    Harsh engagement from park/reverse/neutral to drive.

    My Ford dealer just overhauled our 2018 Expedition 10R80 at 98k miles under Ford Premium Care Warranty. Shifting from park to reverse or to drive or any combination is very smooth, huge difference from before the overhaul. They did replace the CDF Hub, also the cylinder (PC3Z 7B177A), also...
