    This forum is talking me out of buying

    I've owned my '18 Limited for just over a year now. Have just over 16.5k miles on it. Have had more than a handful of issues/complaints...Clicking side mirrors, stuck liftgate button, hands-free liftgate that's out to hurt me, random nav screen reboots/hangs, broken Active Park Assist, rough...

    This forum is talking me out of buying

    My experience with cars has been that the customer service dept's of the mfr, dealer, and repair center are the key factors in determining if you'll end up regretting your purchase. I think buying any car is a gamble, but if you feel confident with those you'll be dealing with should trouble...

    Transmission Clunk 3rd Gear

    I should add...Mine shifted smooth as butter first 6 months (+/-).

    Transmission Clunk 3rd Gear

    Sounds EXACTLY like my '18 Limited. Had it to the dealer once so far for it..."Unable to duplicate." Will be taking it back in soon for a host of other issues and will raise this one again at the same time.

    Rear hatch dirt and spray build up

    I also tried mud flaps only to find they don't help with the rear window in any noticeable way. As far as SUVs go, I can only compare with Ford Flex and Acura MDX. This '18 Expedition is BY FAR worse in this regard.

    10 speed missed shift

    I experience this same sort of "delay/hesitation when cold" on my '18 Limited. While shifting has become very rough on mine in general (worse when gears are skipped), there's a definite difference with cold engine vs warm. With a cold engine, accellerating up to speed after pulling away from...

    Ford, Are you Listening? 2018+ Change/Wish List

    I've tried changing the default to perimeter only, but it always resets upon next start. '18 Limited.

    Press Stop Underway, Automatically Shifts to Park???

    I read a post/complaint on the NHTSA website where the author explained how the '18 (and newer?) Expeditions (and all modern Fords?) automatically shut-down and shift to Park if the start-stop button is pressed while underway. Wanting to know if this was true, I did a simple test in my driveway...

    Rear Hatch Opening

    I too suffer from foot-activated liftgate syndrome...I've been near smacked so many times in so many different ways (walking past, hitching/unhitching trailer, loading bikes on rack, etc.) I'm afraid to go anywhere near it. I'll definitely bring up TSB 19-2162 next time I'm in to the dealer and...

    Ford, Are you Listening? 2018+ Change/Wish List

    +1 there! In addition, how about make EVERY configurable setting persist through restarts? For example, if I'm a driver who likes running boards deployed all the time, why not let me set them to NEVER retract? And, if I am a pet owner whose animals frequently ride in the car, why not let me...

    Retractable Running boards

    I had a similar event happen with my '18 Limited. My wife opened passenger side front door, my son opened passenger side rear. While the rear door was still open, my wife closed the front door..Running board retracted. I don't recall if he was on or off the running board at the time, but I do...

    Nav Screen Glitches

    Our '18 Limited nav screen has frozen, becoming completely unresponsive in any way, including radio buttons below the screen, about 5 times since we bought it about a year ago. Takes a stop/restart of the engine to clear the error condition and usually that next boot of the nav screen takes a...

    Husky Floor Liners vs. WeatherTech

    I have the bench seat in the 2nd row. And, for what it's worth, I also have the factory floor mats front and 2nd row. WT 4412956 FloorLiner for 3rd row. No complaints with any of those.

    Vista Roof Rattle

    I'm having similar noises coming from/around the vista roof in my '18 Limited. I'd assumed it would be covered by the TSB cited above. Am I correctly reading the posts to this thread that customers are going into the dealer citing the trouble and this TSB and being either (a) turned away, told...

    Husky Floor Liners vs. WeatherTech

    Strange. I've got an '18 Limited (regular, non-Max) and purchased the WT cargo mat for the trunk space behind the 2nd row seating. I've had the opposite experience with the WT mat. Because the WT mat lacks anything tacky or textured on the bottom, it's constantly sliding around when we have...

    Tailgate button sticking?

    StealthyBulldog may be on to something there... I note in the repair notes from when mine was fixed the tech stated, "...Removed switch from panel - operates as designed. Found trim panel cut wrong. Requires new interior liftgate trim panel. R+R panel. Operation checks okay. Cleared DTCS. Ran...

    Tailgate button sticking?

    My 2018 Limited had the same issue (stuck/sticking lift gate button - the one you press to close an already open lift gate). Dealer fixed under warranty, been working as normal for about 1 week thus far.

    Hands free lift gate closing by itself

    I'm having the same frustrating issues with this "feature." Sounds like the only available option is to disconnect that antenna. Wondering, has anyone had trouble with the dealer after having done so (i.e., void your warranty) or any other undesired side effects (i.e., is anything else in the...

    Hands-Free Liftgate Madness

    Thank you. I did try searching the forums several different ways for related threads prior to posting, but came up empty. I see from the thread you cited, I must have missed it because I was searching for "liftgate" (all one word) as a search param, not "lift gate" (two words). I'll explore...

    Hands-Free Liftgate Madness

    2018 Limited with hands-free (foot-activated) tailgate...Never opens/closes when I try; Often opens/closes when I don't (like when hooking up or unhooking a trailer); Several times has opened when I'm simply walking by 3 feet away (feet nowhere near the bottom of car). Anyone else experiencing...

    Cold Weather Starts And Burning Smell in Cabin

    We bought our 2018 Limited brand new last winter. Noticed that when the weather was really cold and we used the remote start for a cold start (first thing in the morning, for example), the cabin would sometimes fill with an electric/oil type burning smell. The odor was so strong and noxious...

    Rough shifting

    Reviving old thread here, but I'm experiencing something that sounds similar with my '18 Limited. At just under 15k miles currently. For first several months of driving, shifting was super smooth. Has become much less so over time. Generally more noticeable shifts, but particularly when...

    Active Park Assist Disabled

    Been getting message on dash saying something to the effect "Active Park Assist Disabled" when shifting into gear for months. Self-parking feature doesn't work anymore. Neither does the "radar" that tells you when you're about to hit something (on any side) when parking. 2018 model, purchased...
