All the best. Can't blame you a bit.
Stuck on the side of the road with transmission leak, any suggestions?

Those new Sequoias are pretty nice too, just very pricey

We considered one but since we have recently built out a Land Cruiser as a play vehicle we figured we should get something a little more tame. The Sienna is getting 30+mpg which is nice.
Well good luck with it my friend. I hope my new 10R80 doesn’t follow the same path yours does, I understand the frustration. I’ve had my new 2023 F-150 for 10 days and I’ve all ready received a 10R80 transmission recall on this truck. Ford is putting a stop delivery order on 2023s built in November (of course mine was built in the range) I am NOT happy about it. Transmissions that went through QC had an extra bolt installed by mistake and these units can ROLL AWAY in park. I’ve been checking my vin on the recall site constantly. Not cool I have to apply the parking brake on a 2023 with 500 miles on it. Other than that happy, the 5.0 is getting 18 MPG combined and over 22 mpg on the highway.

My 2015 Expedition Limited 4x4 (and all 2015 - 2017 Expedition and Navigator models) have been under a Ford safety recall since August 2022 (for the potential for the front HVAC blower motor to catch fire while the vehicle is in operation).
The initial Ford letter to the owners stated the parts may be available in the first quarter of 2023. Recently, Ford issued a notice to their dealers that the parts availability for the safety recall has been extended to the second quarter of 2023.
IF the parts become available by the end of the second quarter of 2023, that means Ford could take ten months or more to provide a part to repair a potential vehicle fire hazard.
Also found out this morning my sync modem has went bad. 11 days of ownership and I have a recall and a supposed APIM failure.
I’m starting to miss the days of the 5.4 and heavy steel bodies, those old Expeditions felt like tanks compared to these new F-150s and Expeditions. I’d bet my 2007 EL was a lot sturdier in an accident at 6,300 pounds than any of these Coca Cola cans we are driving now. I have mixed feelings. Maybe I’m just in a negative mood right now lol.

Though I love my my20 nav mote than anything ive had so far, i will concede, the 3d gen pre refresh expy and navs were built better than anything after my15, or atleast that's what it felt like. I still don't understand why even after 2 decades and light years better tech, the new trucks to include f150, still feel like they gonna shake off the frame on certain textured roads.

Wow, fire hazard and no rush to fix. I’m sure it’s some yada yada yada Covid supply chain issue line.

I think you’re justified in being upset over an issue after only 11 days. I hope this isn’t a sign of things to come.
