    Cabin Air Filter on 2016 Expedition

    I don't believe the 2016 Expedition is equipped with a cabin air filter as I have been unable to find a reference anywhere to purchase a replacement or a how-to on replacing it. I'd just like to know if anyone has first-hand knowledge that there is or is not one on that model so my wife will...

    Blend Door Actuator Replaced, Still Hear Clicks

    I replaced a few rear blend doors on my 2015 Explorer and one on my 2016 Expedition due to the clicking noise. I don't remember where I read it, but I read that this problem can happen prematurely if one adjusts the temperature to one extreme or the other. Basically, there is no limit switch...

    2011 sync/bluetooth issues

    A 2011 would not have Sync3. I'm pretty sure the 1st one with Sync3 was 2016 (that's what I have). I had a 2015 Explorer that had MyTouch (Sync2) so I'd be surprised if it wasn't Sync2 at the very latest. Does your phone see Sync on your vehicle as a bluetooth device you can connect to but...

    USB Hub

    I ordered a new hub #HC-3Z19A387-B from Fordpartsgiant.com which I just received and installed today. I was hoping for a faster charging rate but it only charges at the normal rate. I am still able to use Android Auto with no trouble though. One reason I wanted to replace it was because I was...

    USB Hub

    I have a 2016 and I noticed that the built in usb ports definitely do not charge at the same rate as my cigarette lighter powered fast charger. When using my Note 8 with the cable connected to the built in charger for an extended period of time, I noticed that the charger could not keep up with...

    REAR WIPER

    What you may be looking for is a ww-1614 blade. I found one that fit my 2016 Expedition XLT here: 2016 2017 Ford Expedition Lincoln Navigator 16" Rear Wiper Blade OEM WW-1614 | eBay. I found it for less money at Amazon Amazon.com: Motorcraft WW1614 Wiper Blade: Automotive

    Owners of 2015-2017 Models - is yours reliable?

    I have a 2016 Expedition XLT. Last week I was driving and got a low brake fluid warning with no corresponding change in braking performance. I was not far from home, so I drove the rest of the way home and checked my brake fluid when I arrived. The fluid was completely empty! I refilled the...

    Dang, rear main seal leak!

    Before you replace that rear main, make sure that's the problem. If you had your oil changed recently and the oil was overfilled, it could be leaking due having too much oil in it. My son just had that very problem with his older Explorer. He noticed it was leaking onto his driveway. The...

    Rear Wiper replacement - driving me crazy

    I have a 2016 and had a big problem finding the right wiper blade. When I had them look it up in the parts book at more than one parts store, they consistently came up with the wrong one or the entire arm. I was resigned to the possibility that I would buy and replace the entire arm. Then I...

    Ford ESP Advice Please

    I don't buy them and agree with Bloodhound's advice, just set the money aside. Maybe you can make a few bucks on interest and if nothing bad happens you can use that money to help buy a new vehicle later on. If you really feel unlucky, maybe you should buy it but I think most people probably...

    Steering wheel Audio Control

    Well, I've changed my clockspring and also the switch array on the right side of the steering wheel and I still have the problem. Of course, it's intermittent, so that makes it harder to figure out. I assume there is no problem on the left side switch array since all the functions on the left...

    Steering wheel Audio Control

    My 2016 has been randomly changing volume, stations, and audio sources. The first thing I did to attempt a fix was the remove the switch from the right side of the steering wheel and clean it with electronic component cleaning spray. That did not make any difference at all. It doesn't always...

    Replaced pads and rotors, brake pedal sinking to floor now?!?

    I have to agree with retiredusps on the idea that the master cylinder is leaking internally. There is no other place in the system that a leak could occur that could cause the pedal to go down without leaking outside of the system. Fluid under pressure causes the pistons at the wheels to move...

    Basic Applink compatibility with Android phones

    I am curious to know if other people are having the same issue with newer phones and Basic Applink compatibility. My 2016 Expedition with sync3 before the update to version 3 was able to access Glympse as a mobile app in Sync. Since the update, I can't access Glympse, Spotify and maybe others...
