    Do you really need an extended warranty?

    Or for some, do they even care to have it fixed? I care, so I bought it. I can’t imagine forking over the $1k - 2k for a new lane keep camera that just went out on my car. It’s repairs like that that many people might decide not to fix 5, 7 or 9 years down the road for that price and then all...

    Do you really need an extended warranty?

    If you plan to keep the car 10-15 years buy the 10 year warranty bumper to bumper for sure! 100% chance you’re replacing something major with the reliability I’ve read about on here. Turbos, lane keep assist, rear back up cameras etc. Can you replace your VCT when it fails? A turbo? Maybe...

    Do you really need an extended warranty?

    It will be worth it when you want your turbos replaced for rattling!

    Do you really need an extended warranty?

    Great point on the resale value! Never thought of that. IMO it’s a no brainer to buy it if you plan to keep past the factory or CPO warranty. Negotiate a bit and you can get 10 years / 125k miles for just over $2k. Get the lowest deductible if you want little things fixed more often. That’s...

    Is buying a CPO good idea?

    Or do both. Buy CPO as you know the car was treated well and buy an extended warranty. If the CPO price is similar to non CPO then do it.

    Folding Cargo Liners

    I just received mine after a 3 week wait. It’s fantastic! Love that it doesn’t have a huge lip like all others do. Plus it folds flawlessly. Levittown Ford in PA is where I ordered from online. Took a while but it came.

    Lane Departures Not Working

    Yup, my lane departure lights up but will never initiate / turn green even when on the correct roads. Fairly confident they either dirtied up the camera behind the glass when they removed my whole headliner or they somehow broke the camera or dislodged it all together during that process and it...

    Is buying a CPO good idea?

    Just a thought, buy an extended warranty from your dealer and CPO or not it doesn’t matter. I bought a 10yr bumper to bumper 125k warranty from my dealer. Negotiated down to around $2k. My 2019 expedition will be covered for a long while considering I only put about 10k miles on it per year...

    Lane Departures Not Working

    Hi all, hoping for some help here. I had my sunshade replaced under warranty where they had to pull off the whole headliner, from to back. I got the car back and have been getting this warning. Front Camera Low Visibility Clean Screen". I soon discovered this was the camera on the winshield...

    New Owner - TSB 20-2315

    So just to confirm, replacing the actuators doesn’t fix it it has to be the actual flapper assembly within the turbo itself? So new turbo needs to be the solution for all of us for the most part? I love that they replaced my VCT for absolutely no reason other than to appease Ford. Seems like...

    Real world differences between the Limited and Platinum

    Yes, and you can always black out the car with a wrap to make it look "Stealth"

    Real world differences between the Limited and Platinum

    Added HP and torque you won’t feel, and if you do it’s probably placebo. The car is plenty quick as is and as someone mentioned, get it tuned for $600 or whatever and you’ll have 450-500hp. There’s also the Special Edition. It’s pretty much the same as the Stealth but lacking blacked out...

    Why does my B&O Sound System sound crappy?

    I’ll chime in and being a new Expeditiin owner I agree it’s not 100% great in terms of acoustics, sharpness, clarity, etc as I’m coming from an ELS system in an Acura, Meriden in Jaguar and previously Mark Levinson in a Lexus, all very good systems IMO. Bass is actually better than the two...

    Premium fuel for longevity?

    I just discovered how much cheaper Costco is! Never knew how bad the price gouging was in our area south of Nashville until now. Premium was $3.20 at my local Shell and at Costco $1.99! Now I can justify the occasional flooring of this 3.5 ecoboost!

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    Yea it very well could just be the service advisor I’m speaking with thinking he knows what he’s talking about or maybe he’s trained to punt the conversation and hope we don’t bring it up again but eventually I’ll get this fixed. With their dealer or another.

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    Nice. So Ford approved this fix them for your car before they proceeded?

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    Yea to them it’s no big deal hunting around for a cheaper solution but to us it’s a week or more without your car and a handful of not pleasant experiences. I’ll admit though, I’d be happy with that route rather than my dealer saying they don’t want to even try it because they might not get...

    2019 Platinum 22" wheels for sale

    Hey 2019 Plat Exp - could you share pics showing a 360 of your car with the gloss black vinyl wrap? I’m bringing mine in to at the very least wrap the C pillar like you but am intrigued with what you did on the rear. Any particular reason you didn’t do the tan/gray bumper portion as well...

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    That would drive me nuts. The only benefit of me revisiting the service department was another service advisor chimed in regarding my original service advisor not wanting to fix the wastegate / turbo rattle (because Ford may not reimburse them for the warranty work) and he said they should be...

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    It also just adds insult to injury too since they don’t want to own up to replacing the turbo/wastegate under warranty. But yea, I opened up my hood upon getting the car back to make it everything looked good but didn’t think to look behind the damn hood for random parts sitting there hah!

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    I drove the car straight to the dealer and immediately another service rep said it's probably a 1 time use bolt. Had two technicians come take a look and right away they said it's probably one time use fuel rail bolts. They removed the cover and sure enough, one time use fuel rail bolts. The guy...

    Dealer forgot to put bolts back!!

    Kind of absurd but I had my VCT replaced and two days after getting the car back I notice these two bolts sitting under the front wipers today! Looks like some fools forgot to put these back, anyone know what these go to? I’m assuming something to do with the engine block, VCT or components...

    Folding Cargo Liners

    This really is fantastic. Weather tech was no good. Ordered a Husky cargo mat and don’t love it with the lip around every side (honestly who needs a two inch lip? Are people expecting to spill 40 gallons of liquid in their cargo mat???) and lack of ability to put just one 3rd row up. I can’t...
