    Thinking of getting a 2016-2017 expedition with V6 - how are they compared to the older V8 5.4 Liter models?

    I have had several Expys all bought new with Triton V8. Now have a 2018 XLT with V6. No comparison V6 is hands down better. More power, better gas mileage etc

    Top Tier Gas

    I have had the same Ford service manager for 20+ years. He has consistently recommended top tier gas for our Expys. We keep them well past 120,000 miles and have had no problems.

    Life gate automatically opened, car lights flashing

    I had this on our 2018 XLT Expy. Took it to dealer multiple times before they fixed. They said it was “a faulty relay”. The kick to open stopped working after the fix. I also have the popping outside mirror problem.

    Rear Hatch "misbehaving" -- anyone else have this problem?

    I had the same problem with my ‘18. Dealer fixed it, but the kick to lift no longer works. Small price to pay to avoid getting hit by hatch

    Eco Mode

    I use Eco all the time. I assume that changes the shift algorithm to stay in a higher gear as long as possible. No jack rabbit starts. I find it downshifts aggressively when passing on 2 lane roads.

    Adaptive cruise control

    I thought most of the slow down with adaptive cruise control was done by engine braking. If so, brake lights will not come on.

    Rear hatch up and down by itself

    I posted this before, but hope to see if anyone else has this problem. When stopped, my 2018 XLT's rear hatch intermittently goes down when up or up when it is down. Warning chime does not sound. No set pattern when it happens so impossible to duplicate. It has hit me and several other people...

    Front Sensor Question

    2018 XLT. Alert mainly goes off when a car in front of me is turning. Has gone off when I came up on a car in front of me too quickly. Manual says it will not stop itself, but does apply extra braking pressure. Strange, since as others have said, adaptive cruise control will stop the car. I have...

    2018 XLT hatch opening on its own

    The rear hatch has been opening randomly on its own. Happens when engine is off. Happens after one or more side doors has been opened and closed. Whacked me on the forehead last night. Dealer has not heard of this. Anyone else experienced this?
