    Shifter .... slow? Sticky?

    2015 Max/EL, 3.5 Lately, shifting into/out of park (mostly all the shifting I do) I've noticed the shifter feels...sticky? Firmer? Not as smooth/easy as it was? Is there a lube I'm missing? Something to clean? TIA

    New recall

    I just received a recall notice from Ford about the AC fan circuity catching fire... They hope to have a fix in 2023. Since the Wall Street Journal tells me that Ford is running out of Blue Oval grill badges, I'm a bit worried.

    Blown hoses, saved the transmission

    A week ago I was driving home (almost there) when two of the four hoses from the my transmission to the transmission oil cooler exploded... Pulled over, got a tow home (everything was closed)....checked it out the next morning, and yep - they're still blown apart and dripping transmission fluid...

    Whoops!

    I walked out to my '15 Expedition this morning...Seems all the transmission fluid has leaked out of the front - the cooler? Waiting for the tow truck to haul it to the shop.. Hopefully, just a cooler - not the transmission itself... 90k miles, no known damage.

    ATB ...

    A few weeks ago I was driving, and my '15 Expy with 90k miles started misbehaving - CEL, no power etc... So, I coasted into a parking space, shut the engine down, and after a bit tried starting it up - started, ran OK for a minute or two, but no power when I tried to drive.... Shut it down and...

    Right rear turn signal

    What is the deal with the right rear turn signal? I've had my truck almost 6 years, and had to replace the bulb in the RR turn signal 4 times. Never had to change any others - just the RR. I'm installing LED's to see if that lasts any longer but it's curious that it's just the right rear.

    The drivers seat on my '15 is getting a bare spot from wear and age (90k miles)... Anything special to fix it? I was thinking of re-dying it black, and some polish, then lots of buffing...

    Rear Wiper replacement - driving me crazy

    Good morning, everyone.. I bought a replacement rear wiper arm and blade for my 2015 4x4 Max. I cannot seem to get the old one off. 13mm socket removes the nut OK. Getting the old arm assy off the stud is a problem. Lots of penetrating oil, lots of wiggling (like 30 minutes or more)...

    Door lock actuator

    OK, not sure if the other door lock threads apply; 2015 EL, 87k miles and little things are starting to go wrong :( This year I've had to replace a running board motor, water pump, and passenger front door window regulator. The current issue is the drivers side door power door lock is...

    Grease in key fob?

    I just had a strange experience...I replaced the battery in my key fob..Opened it up, and there were two little dollops of some sort of white grease on the battery. I'm pretty sure I've replaced the battery before, and I have no idea what grease is, or where it came from. Anyone have an idea?

    Right side hole in dash?

    Hi, everyone... What is the hole on the dash that is opposite the trailer brake controller good for? It's too small for most anything I can think of, and while it's not a big deal I was just curious what its for. Thanks

    Scuffed hard plastic repair

    Hi there.... Several places in my 2015 Expy EL Limited have become scuffed - from cargo, whatever. Parts like the 2nd door door shrouds, the hard plastic liners of the cargo compartment, etc.. Any good fix for these, other than replacing them? Thanks

    Soaking wet passenger front carpeting

    Hi, all... This past weekend I discovered that the carpeting on the front passenger side was soaking wet....with no obvious cause (no spills, no evidence of a leak). Is there some AC drain on that side I cant see? Any other ideas? Thanks

    Hi, everyone. The 5-position switch on the steering wheel that selects radio channels doesn't work consistently on my 15 Expy.... Most likely, it needs cleaning: Or replacing. How does one remove it? Thanks

    Installing Interior LED's

    I bought some LED bulbs for my 2015 Expy EL 4x4 Limited... Now, HOW do I actually install them? For the front (map) lights, I can pull the clear cover off without a problem, but how to get the bulbs out? In looking at some YT videos, it seems that I should remove the entire light...

    Window gasket

    A few months ago my Expedition was broken into, the thief smashed the drivers side windows. I got the glass replaced, but I just noticed that the gasket on the outside of the drivers door window is missing...and water is getting into the door. It drips out slowly, which is a rust threat. Is...

    Thanks for the add

    Hi there. Last year I traded up from a Dodge Ram to a 2015 EL Ltd. Great move on my part! So far I've towed trailers from Montana to Ontario, Canada and back, not a bit of trouble. The family loves the room, too. Anyway, here to learn the tricks for an Expedition...
