    Customer Satisfaction Program 22M03 - Certain 2018-2020 Navigator - Replace Front And/Or Side Cameras If Foggy

    Too bad it doesn't cover the rear view camera. Mine is not too bad, but definitely has some "fog" in the frame.

    Difficulty reading oil level

    Cannot seem to get a clean dipstick to be able to read the oil level. Whether waiting 15 mins after driving, or letting sit much longer, I pull it out, wipe it off and re-insert. Upon pulling out the second time, the dipstick comes out "wet" way past the reading area. Previous service was done...

    Headlights turn on by themselves?!

    I'm guessing it's related to the drizzle/rain interacting with the hands-free function on the door handles with the fob in range. This happens when I wash the car with my fob on me.

    2019 Expedition won’t start randomly and all warning lights go off.

    Also realized that it might be easier to verify the green LED in the start button comes on when the brake pedal is pushed

    2019 Expedition won’t start randomly and all warning lights go off.

    Could be the brake pedal switch. Do the brake lights come on (might need someone to look). Sounds like what happens when you press the Start button with foot off the brake.

    Leaving running boards deployed - pros and cons

    What I do in this case is simply not fully close the doors until I'm ready for the boards to retract. You can bring either front or rear door to the almost closed position and the boards will stay deployed. I guess it depends on how long you are loading/unloading things though. In my case, it's...

    Leaving running boards deployed - pros and cons

    Follow-up, according to the 2020 Owners Manual, if deployed, the running boards will return to the stowed position when the vehicle speed exceeds 5 MPH. In other words, they will only stay deployed when the car is stopped to allow for cleaning the top surfaces and to access the roof. Ford...

    2019 Expedition Limited - Auto start/stop not working

    Here's what my 2020 AS/S display looks like when running and when stopped (along with the grayed out AS/S indicator).

    Leaving running boards deployed - pros and cons

    I haven't verified yet in the 4th Gen, but our 3rd Gen would not keep the boards deployed beyond one engine on/off cycle. You could deploy them while the car is running and they would stay out after shutdown, but would retract again on the next start. Perhaps 4th Gen behaves differently.

    2019 Expedition Limited - Auto start/stop not working

    We bought our '20 in December 2022, original battery, and mine has never activated either. I discovered a "screen" in the Information Display that indicated AS/S did not activate due to battery charging. When you are stopped and see the grayed-out AS/S indicator with the line through it, you can...

    Battery Issue?

    In the two months I've owned my 2020 with 75K miles and original battery, I've never had Auto Start/Stop available (screen says battery is charging), and the FordPass App alerts me the vehicle is in "deep sleep" every time I shutdown due to low 12V battery. I haven't had any issues with door...

    2021 Limited Max known problems?

    Make sure you go through the vehicle settings menu and check that the power running boards are enabled. The default is OFF. I found this out when I disconnected my 12V battery and the settings went back to the default. Another thing I learned after buying my used 2020 Max Limited with 74K...

    Traction Control ??

    Are you in a 4x4 mode? I've never experienced a wheel slip or TC activation when in 4x4.

    4H / 4A / 2H

    I concur. I saw the same thing. 4A stays lit, but Drive Mode is back to Normal. Have to manually rotate the dial to get back to Grass/Gravel/Snow mode. Of course, then I always rotate the knob in the wrong direction and have to correct back the other way.

    4H / 4A / 2H

    There's another thread that reports the same thing--Sport Mode drives all 4 wheels. Curious if the 4A light switches ON when Sport Mode is selected? I would assume so.

    Traction Control ??

    I was basing my comments upon observing the off-road power distribution display. I was not going 50 mph, much slower, and was not seeing any power to the fronts in Normal and 4A at slow speeds. Maybe at 50 mph it always sends power to the front as you say, but I did not test it at those speeds.

    Traction Control ??

    I am new to my 2020 Gen 4 Expy and only have the 4A version (not 4H or 4L that comes with towing). On my first drive in slippery/snowy conditions, I also experienced unnerving sliding a couple of times (rear end kicked out) when going around corners. I didn't notice if the TC light came on, but...

    Deep sleep mode

    Same. The FordPass for our "new to us" 2020 is doing this every time we shut down. Upon opening the door to drive it, we sometimes get a SYNC screen giving a countdown to either start the car or go back into deep sleep. Did a 12V battery health check, and came back less than optimal. One other...

    ‘20 Expedition Limited Max 3.5 Auto Start/Stop Problem

    While this does not fix your problem with the Auto Start/Stop, I wonder if the Expy will restart in N like many other Auto Tranny cars? This would be better than shifting to P in traffic, as you say.

    Retail Cost of Replacement Key Fob?

    Yea, my car was a lease/rental also. The other thing I noticed is the Auto Start/Stop has been disabled. Is always grayed out on the display. Maybe that's a good thing, though.

    2020 Limited: Ghost wrench light?

    Even though the light goes out, a Trouble Code may still have been saved. Perhaps get the codes read, free at most auto parts stores.

    Free Autostop Eliminator and compensation for a '22 Expedition

    We recently bought a used 2020 Expy that I believe should have Auto Start/Stop. It has the button next the Hazard Lights Button, at least. I am familiar with this feature on other cars, so have been prepared for the engine to stop in the Expy, but I have yet to see it. I guess it's possible that...

    Retail Cost of Replacement Key Fob?

    Recently purchased a 2020 Expy MAX that came with only one fob. We had the selling dealer promise a second fob (in writing), but they're dragging their feet, it seems. Maybe it's a supply chain issue (availability of the part?) or it's just not a priority for them, but they're not returning my...

    Updated 2015 EL Limited to 2020 MAX Limited!

    We had our 2015 EL Limited for the past two years. No problems whatsoever. But, we found this very nice 2020 MAX Limited the other day and traded for it on impulse really. So far thrilled with the new design and features!

    No Horn

    Interesting. We bought a used law enforcement car 2 years ago and the horn has never worked. Now I know what to look for!
