    Park Brake Limited Function Service Required

    I experienced this behavior/message about a year ago with my '18 Limited. On the repair notes it says "Repair wires at left parking brake motor harness per SSM 52881". Probably not all that descriptive of a note, but seems to match what @2019XLT describes above in that ithe cause was an...

    Temperature gauge behaviour

    I have seen the number appear on my 2018 Limited a couple of times. However, that's been it...number has appeared a couple times and went away each time. No known overheating problems. And, no pattern to understand why it happened those couple of times.

    all terrain tires...

    Trying to find a "do it all" replacement for the factory Hankooks where I wouldn't need snow tires during Midwest winters, could do some light trail driving in sandy dirt, and still do well on dry and wet pavement, I put the Cooper Discoverer Road & Trail ATs on my '18 Limited this past fall. I...

    Hands free Liftgate

    This. Disabling the feature on my '18 limited was one of the best "mod's" I've made. The lift gate always tried to kill me when hooking up (or unhooking) trailers.

    Cooper Discoverer Tires?

    FWIW...I put 18-inch Cooper Discoverer Road and Trail AT's on my '18 Limited this past Fall, with the hope I could get by in all 4 Michigan seasons w/o needing/wanting a dedicated snow tire. Previously, I ran the Bridgestone Blizzaks on the Expy in winter. While I find the Coopers better than...

    It’s official, Hankooks are history!

    I have to +1 the love for the Michelin Cross Climate 2's. Although I do not have them on my Expedition (disappointingly), I have them on my Honda Pilot and they've been rock solid through everything. I am particularly impressed with their snow-handling. I stuck with them all winter on the...

    Electronic Limited Slip Differential Temporarily Disabled message

    In my case, the cause was a trashed front differential. Old post

    4H Driving on dry pavement

    Mud and Ruts, I believe...For those of us w/o the (very sensible) button to select 4H.

    Took my 2020 into dealer last week for….

    For some reason, I thought the transmission "learning mode" disabled the gear skips. However, I can find nothing in writing at the moment to back that up In the case I am right about that, I would expect a brand new Expy to be in learning mode when driven off the lot. Perhaps that could be...

    grinding noise and rough ride only when in 4A

    I have a 2018 Limited, so perhaps a different beast. However, when I had something that sounds like what you are describing, it turned out to be a trashed front diff.

    Dealer says “shifts are normal”

    Both my '18 Expedition and '11 Flex Ecoboosts have an exaggerated "delay" as you describe when cold.

    Transmission Failing timeline

    FWIW: I complained of the transmission oddities of our '18 Limited every time I took the car in for anything. Always got the patented "no codes - can't do anything" or "can't reproduce" responses. However, after enough complaining the dealer finally had the tech inspect the tranny and found...

    Transmission reset

    I'm not 100% certain. My dealer has said "a couple tanks of gas," but based off my experience the rough shifting usually returns within days. I took a quick look, but couldn't find an "official" explanation of when the learning cycle ends.

    Transmission reset

    Please let us know if the rough shifting returns. My dealer frequently "resets" the transmission to default back to "learning mode" when I take my '18 Limited in for service and complain of ongoing "rough shifting." Once through the "learning mode," any perceived improvement in the shifting...

    Turn off Hands-Free Tailgate via Forscan?

    Your mileage may vary, but the TSB did not resolve the issue for me. I ultimately followed the advice of others and disconnected the sensor/antenna. Some helpful info can be found in this thread: https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/hands-free-liftgate-madness.42316/ A search on the...
