    sideview mirror out when using cru con- bypass?

    My '22 Expy with tow package cancels the warning light on the sideview mirrors when I'm towing. Yes, I understand that Ford views it as a safety issue, but is there a way to get around it? I'd really like to have that extra warning if I'd like to switch to the passing lane. Thanks

    '22 Stealth collision avoidance sensor issues.

    I read a similar post but still would like more info before going to the dealer. Two weeks after my warranty ran out (with only 30,000 miles) I received an error message via email concerning the collision avoidance sensor. There's no damage to the vehicle. The dealer wants $100 to run a scan to...

    running board motors

    This is at least my 4th Expy so I am aware of the running board issues. All those vehicles had fairly minor running board issues, no big deal. My '22, still under warranty, needs 2 new motors according to the dealer. Apparently the tech couldn't get the computer to communicate with the motors...

    inconvenience or safety feature?

    My '22 Stealth engages the brakes at start-up and I have to press the accelerator before taking off. It seems a little crazy to have to disengage the brakes again before starting off. If I'm on a slight downhill it will roll forward in neutral and then I can engage Drive without the brakes being...

    2022 Stealth with weird sound system issues

    The other day when I got into the vehicle there was fairly loud "boom" noise. I looked around and could see nothing wrong. After driving a bit I turned up the radio to find out there was no sound at all. I tried pushing the "talk" button on the steering wheel and again there was no sound, but...

    question on buying '21 or '22 Expy Limited

    I'd like to buy either a '21 or '22 Limited. It looks like all the '22s have the huge video screen while the '21s do not. Is that true? I really don't care for that big screen. Any other major differences between the 21s and 22s? This would be my fourth Expedition Limited, and obviously like...

    Cher trapped in my muffler?

    This topic has appeared before in this forum but I still have questions. After leaving my '17 Limited (52k on clock) unattended for 10 days or so it looks like critters have entered and caused issues. As you can see, the packing looks like long, human hair. I tried stuffing it back in but...

    any major issues with '21s or '22s?

    I've got a 2017 Limited, bought new in 2018 with 50k on the clock. Love the vehicle but looking to buy a '21 or '22 Limited either slightly used or new if possible. Are there any major issues I should look out for? I really like the vehicle but it's time for a newer one. Interest rates at my...

    Cape Cod MA front end work?

    I have a '17 Limited with only 50k on the clock with front end issues. My son says it's either ball joints or tie rod ends. My local Ford dealer hasn't really inspired a great deal of confidence. Has anyone had someone else do work of this nature on the Cape that they would recommend? thanks

    help with heated seat needed

    My '17 Expy's heated driver's seat was great (one of my favorite features in a vehicle) until it wasn't. It went to cold instead. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the problem, but I never used to hear the fan when I activated the heat on the driver's seat. When I heard the fan kick...

    black paint for running board?

    The paint on the running board of my '17 Limited has peeled off in several spots. I have not had any retracting issues (40k on the clock) yet, so things could be worse. First, maybe a laughable question considering all the issues with our Expys and paint, but, any chance it might be a warranty...

    need oil weight for '17 Limited, lost booklet

    Somehow my service records booklet is gone and I forget what Ford recommends. I've been using Mobil 1 and prefer continuing with that. I live in the Northeast. '17 Limited with tow package. 40k on clock. Thanks, Peter

    My '17 hesitates to start when it get's a little colder out, like 18 or 19 degrees F. Is it possible the key fob battery is on its way out? Anyone else have this issue? Peter

    '17 (still under warranty) with start button issues

    Bought this Expy in '18 now it has only 2,500 miles left before the warranty expires. In my last Expy I had window operation problems before the warranty ran out but didn't bother getting it done. Big mistake. Cost me $$$ when I should have brought in under warranty. So, I don't want to make...

    '17 Expy trailer wiring receptacle awkward, any solutions?

    Ford has used this system for years and it makes me envious when I use the much easier one on my son's GMC pick-up truck. For those of you without trailer use, both the 4 plug harness and the 7 plug harness are underneath the rear bumper and a real pain to hook up. I'm sure I'm not the only one...

    "how to" install new rear brakes on '17 Expy 25k miles

    Vehicle was bought new in 2018 and it seems weird that the rear rotors and pads are totally shot. But I need to replace them and looked at a YouTube video to get an idea of what to do. I have been changing rotors and pads on boat trailers for years, but the Expy seems more complicated. Anyone...

    Can you eliminate yellow shading on back-up camera?

    My 2011 Expy's back-up camera had a clear view. My 2017 Expy back up camera has a yellowish tint when I get close to the ball when backing up. I need to put on my cheater glasses to see the ball to begin with, and the yellowish tint makes it even harder. Am I missing something? Can I get the...

    2017 with dreaded paint issue?

    I bought a new 2017 Limited in 2018 that had been sitting on the lot for a year. I've owned a few earlier Expeditions over the years and each one had paint issues on the front edge of the hood, the liftgate, or sometimes in both places. Recently I discovered a tennis ball-sized patch of bubbled...

    wtb passenger side rear mat

    This may be a long shot but I need to replace the black floor mat for my Expedition for the passenger side rear. I believe I bought it for my early 2000's model. It is much heavier than the current floor mats and has much deeper grooves, it it would match the rest of my mats. Although the pic...

    '17 Limited, scratches on driver's window from factory

    Anybody else have this problem? Got a new '17 (42 miles) from the dealer 2/18. It had vertical scratches on the driver's window. Dealer said Ford won't fix it. (!) When I brought it in for some other minor stuff, the Ford rep happened to be in the service manager's office and the manager...

    can't shut off back-up alarm quickly on '17

    I trailer my '17 Limited fairly often. Did the same on my '11, but when I put it into reverse I could shut off the back up alarm easily with one push of a button. My '17 drives me crazy when I back up and cannot disable the sound easily. I have figured how to do it, but it requires several...

    WDH needed on '17 Limited Expy for 7,600lbs?

    I know this topic has been discussed in the "Do I have the HD package..." and I've looked through that and still can't find an answer to this question. My spec decal says I have axle 15 with the 3.31 gears and I am OK with that. It also says I have 9,200 Weight Distributing but 6,000 weight...

    swap tires anyone?

    Sounds crazy but here's the deal- last February I bought a new '17 Expy Limited with 42 miles on it. It now has 4,741 miles on the clock. I didn't notice it at the time but it has Hankook Dynapro A7m (275/55R20 113T) tires on it. These tires, as you can see in the pics have a fairly aggressive...
