That is a total of three.
One, regarding the windows imo is a bit trivial.
The other two, not so much, could be quite dangerous.

However, setting your parking brake, religiously - makes one almost moot.

The other I am given pause, leaking fuel, as someone else mentioned in another thread, could mean total loss.

It would seem the five recalls mentioned may be confused with TSB which are not recalls.

Yep, my 2018 Limited Max has no recalls or TSBs and so far no indications that something may be wrong. Mine was built in Aug 18.

There has been a lot of problems with the 2018 Expedtions - including numerous safety recalls. Not a good sign.

Don't they say that you never buy a first year model of anything new?

Of the 5 listed problems, you will find a "recall acknowledgment" document. Each states that the NHTSA has received notice from Ford Motor Company concerning a safety recall, not a TSB.
