    How many owners out there with no major issues?

    I will agree that Ford service departments fall extremely short in customer service. We’ve used 3 different Ford service departments in town and they are all the same. They are reluctant to fix anything unless it’s a true mechanical failure, brush things off as “normal” when clearly they are...

    Better luck this time? 2020 traded for 2021

    Did your dealer fix this issue? We have the exact issue with our 2021 expedition max and our incompetent dealer said it was within spec and refused to make any adjustments. It bothers me every time I walk by that door. The gap is larger and the door slightly sticks out to where you’d think it...

    How many owners out there with no major issues?

    Out of curiosity how would you say your rear passenger door is misaligned? We bought a 2021 expedition max and have noticed misalignment with our driver’s side rear door…the panel gap is larger than rest of the doors as well as the door slightly sticking out further than the others. It almost...

    B-Pillar Interior Trim

    I was able to get the top portion of the B pillar off surprisingly easy once I got the guts to jump in and make an attempt. There’s two torque screws under the assist handle as another member mentioned. Pop the assist handle of with a tiny flathead screwdriver to get to the screws. There’s...

    B-Pillar Interior Trim

    Yes, I’ve banged around on the panels and cannot recreate the noise. It seems to lessen the tapping in the panel if the seatbelt is retracted and tight against seat, but will eventually come back even if I leave the belt buckled and retracted. I’m determined to take the panel off to see if...

    B-Pillar Interior Trim

    Thanks for your response! I’ll definitely try that…just ordered some felt tape. I’m convinced it’s coming from the seatbelt mechanism or something behind the panel but could be wrong. The tapping/rattle comes and goes…if I go around a curve real quick or hit a bump in the road something gets...

    B-Pillar Interior Trim

    I wish the fix was that easy. We’ve put the adjuster in all positions and the rattle is still there. Sounds like plastic hitting metal. The dealer replaced the upper panel already but clearly not the cause. Just aggravating to have a new car with 2k miles on the odometer with rattles so soon.

    B-Pillar Interior Trim-Help Please!

    We are chasing a rattle in the B-pillar in our newly purchased ‘21 Expy Max that the dealer is too incompetent to fix or just doesn’t care. Does anyone have any idea how to remove the upper interior B-pillar trim panel without damaging the clips (already figured out the lower panel)? I know the...
