    2017 Misaligned Body on Frame from Factory

    OP Update: I went with frame & alignment experts at a local shop. They confirmed that the body was out of alignment on the frame by 3/4 inch to the front left. Had them do the work to re-align the body by loosening the front clip and some of the body mount bolts. As IowaCarpenter warned...

    2017 Misaligned Body on Frame from Factory

    Yep. Ordered it from the factory and drove it off the lot with 7 miles on it. My first Ford purchase at the time having been there, done that with Chevy and Dodge.

    2017 Misaligned Body on Frame from Factory

    Hey All, Have been enjoying this forum and my 2017 Expy Limited since new. Posting an issue since search did not turn up anything similar. Maybe will help someone else. During an alignment at a very reputable shop, I learned that the front body of my truck was not centered on the frame at...

    Choosing an expy.. 2017 or 2019?

    I had a similar decision to make when the 2018 models were just coming out. To avoid the bugs and issues of a completely new design I went with a 20017 Limited with HD tow, 3.73 rear, load-leveling shocks, etc. 3 years later I am very happy with 2017 and saved about $18k by going with the...

    Transmission issues

    You might want to expand your search to the F150 community having issues with this transmission. Not exactly the same issue you are describing, but absolutely in the ballpark...

    2017 paint issue, it is only 2 years old.

    Same issue on my 2017, also black. Noted for others searching. The paint peels off in neat little layers. Not corrosion, but clearly and factory flex paint on plastic issue. My truck is used of towing and road trips a few times a year, otherwise in the garage.

    Paint peeling on 17

    Bringing this thread back from the dead in case it helps someone else the way it just helped me. I have the same issue on my 2007 black Expy Limited. Top lip of the lower plastic cladding just started on the doors. Not nearly as bad as the OP but just happened out of nowhere on a garaged and...

    Misaligned Tailgate?

    Sorry to see that Ford is still having QC issues with doors and tailgate alignment. I have 2017 Expy Limited bought new. Doors, hood, and tailgate were out of alignment. Dealer fixed everything but the tailgate, which they were honest enough to say they might make worse and to try living...

    2017 Door Alignment

    A lot of common stuff going on here with builds of 2017 Expy's. My front passenger door was out of alignment and stuck out at the bottom to a small extent. Dealer was able to adjust the hinges and get it pretty close to - if not perfectly - aligned. I am good with it. My truck also has the...

    Rear Liftgate Alignment

    Thanks for the replies. I have an appointment to have the dealer's body shop fix it. May have to pull headliner to get access to the hinge bolts, so we'll see how that goes. I looked at a few 2017 Lincoln Navigators on the lot and about half have this same issue in one form or another. I...

    Rear Liftgate Alignment

    Anybody notice alignment issues with their rear liftgate? I have a 2017 Expd and the rear liftgate is misaligned at the roofline. It sits lower on the passenger side. I can have it adjusted by dealer, but wondering if it's worth having something else screwed up in the process. Seems common...

    Really struggling...

    Tahoe exterior styling and interior quality are fantastic IMO. Reliability issues and lack of power in the 5.3 kept me away. The number of known issues with the Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade trucks are hard to ignore. But... If the upcoming 2018 Tahoe RST with the 6.2 was available this past winter, I...

    Really struggling...

    I had to make the decision OP. I chose to buy now for the reasons most have already stated: First and foremost: Great truck to drive. Smooth and ample power and transmission, quiet and comfortable, great steering and turning radius, just enough tech for my needs, etc. The 2017 is the end...

    2017 Expedition Door Rattle

    I am new to this forum and new to Ford. Picked up my 2017 Expedition in March and still breaking it in. Only issue I have had has been a very minor, but annoying rattle or tapping sound coming from the front drivers door and occasionally the front passenger's side. This would happen closing the...
