    Truck stuck in park

    Had same problem with my 2012 Expedition. Checked brake lights and they were not working. Put a brake light switch in from NAPA. It worked, but I had to push the pedal quite hard to get it to work. Really did not know how bad it was till I used cruise control and went to turn it off by just...

    2012 Won't shift out of park sometimes

    The new brake light switch solved my problem except I have to push the brake pedal fairly hard to work. My brake lights won't come on and I can't stop the cruise control without putting enough pressure on the pedal. I don't see any way to adjust it like the "Old Days". I have another switch...

    2012 Won't shift out of park sometimes

    Thanks for all your input guys. Trainmaster was right. I checked the brake lights and they would only come on once in awhile and it would shift when they did come on. I am replacing that brake light switch today or tomorrow. Glad this was it...the cheapest way out. Thank God because usually...

    2012 Won't shift out of park sometimes

    A few times in the last week my 2012 Limited with console shifter would not shift out of park. I tried restarting it, pumped the brake pedal a few times and nothing. Kept messing with it and finally came out of park. Does anyone know what causes this and what the remedy is. Thanks, JOHN

    2009 Expedition Misfire

    I had the exact same problem on my 2012. It would miss and pop under hard acceleration. I replaced the spark plugs and all 8 coils and it fixed my problem immediately, I found 8 coils on Amazon for about $80.00 total. Probably not top of the line coils, but better than paying $60.00 each. I...

    New Key Programming

    I had the problem with the puddle lamps and steering wheel button lights. I purchased a OHP Forscan OBD2 Bluetooth scanner and downloaded Forscan to fix that problem. Have not got around to it yet, but I have another question for you members. When I purchased this 2012 Expedition Limited it only...

    Uneven brake pad wear

    Just did my front brakes on 2012 and they were metal on metal. I took them off and whoever did the brakes before I bought it put the inboard pads on the outside. Brake pads look similar, but the inboard pads have 2 humps on the top and outboard pads don't. Learned this the hard way several years...

    I am finally going to have a chance to work on the vehicle. I pulled a plug and it was totally shot.
