    Purchase a vehicle that is a 'Buy Back'?????

    I have come across a vehicle that is labeled as a 'Buy Back'. The reason the vehicle was bought back was listed with this Auto Stop/Start - failing randomly What does that mean? Auto Stop/Start is not something I understand? this vehicle is a 2023 and admittedly has a very nice asking...

    SP-580 vs SP-580x .... I can buy the 580 on sale....should I?

    Thank you for your response. My vehicle has run exceptionally well these last 104,000 miles with the Factory installed Motorcraft plugs. So, in the six years since I bought the vehicle, new, the manufacturing of the plugs is not as well made as they used to be? No misfires and getting as much...

    SP-580 vs SP-580x .... I can buy the 580 on sale....should I?

    I will be doing a spark plug change. I see that the 'x' version of this plug is the current one being sold. But I can buy the 580 at just $8 a plug from a local parts store. they are normally $12 but they have them on sale (or clearance?) I have a 2017 Expedition and so would assume the...

    I have received the Notice from FORD that the 'new' parts for the recalled blower unit is now available. My 2017 has 94,000+ miles on it and I have had NO problems with the blower. So, I will wait a couple or so months before calling the dealer to get an appointment to have it replaced...

    Blower Motor recall personal experience

    Interesting? I appreciate your insight. May I ask.....what and where do you look to see if there is any melting/burning? I change my own oil and my son (a Master Tech for Lexus/Toyota) do all the work on my 17 Expedition which now has 94,000 miles (I bought it new). The only problem I see in...

    Blower Motor recall personal experience

    Hello, I see that Ford keeps pushing forward when they will attend to the Blower Motor Recall. I called my local Ford dealer and they informed me they have to evaluate my situation first to determine if something needs to be done now or not? I thought Ford was SUPPOSED to replace ALL vehicles...

    2015-2017 recall for blower motors

    I had not received the notice that the 'parts' would not be available now until the 2nd quarter? Should I still be calling the dealer to find out what exactly is going on??

    Flashing check engine light upon hard acceleration. P2096 only code: "Post cat fuel trim sys too lean bank 1"

    "...........had a miss" would be the best answer. I had this happen a couple of weeks past. In Atlanta, I attempted to pass someone. Admittedly I 'stomped' the gas peddle and I didn't think I was accelerating.....made the mistake of 'stomping' it again. I keep foregeting about 'turbo lag'...

    Towing trailer first time

    Dumb observation maybe....... in the 'olden days' I would have to flip a switch or press a button or .......... to activate the trailering ability on a vehicle. I DON'T SEE ANYTHING on this vehicle where I have to do that? I guess when I connect the trailer (electrical?) the Expedition will...

    Towing trailer first time

    First, I have 'towed' a boat many times and have hauled a vehicle on a trailer before with a different vehicle.....but that was more than 10 years ago but less than 15? The vehicle I used back then was bigger tho, it was a Chevy/Suburban with a big V8 and a H/D suspension and trailering...

    Towing trailer first time

    Hello, I own a 2017 Expedition Limited 2 wheel drive. I will be towing a trailer for the first time in its 5 year life. What I will be towing is a trailer with a vehicle on it. I know I can read what the owners manual says but I think hearing from folks who actually tow things would be the...

    Android Auto

    I have a 2017 Expedition Limited. I have been using the 'factory' navigation and really not had much problem using that. In fact it has been reliable and gotten me to wherever I needed to go. But............... I am thinking of utilizing the Android Auto app on the vehicle via my phone. Can...
