    Battery Issues or Phantom Drain Issue?

    My 2018 has been giving me issues with starting up recently. About once a month, it will crank for about half a second and then stop. Battery voltage will read 12v or less. I figured old battery, so I installed a new Interstate battery from Costco a few days ago. New battery's voltages were...

    Disable 3rd Row Seat Recline Buttons

    Does anyone know of any way to disable the 3rd row's seat recline buttons on both sides? Or a clever way to block them? I have two car seats in there for my toddlers and they are constantly playing with the buttons. It's driving me nuts. Thanks in advance.

    Battery Grounded to Painted Metal

    Has anyone noticed Ford grounds the battery to painted metal? I've seen a few Ford models like this. I'm no expert, but shouldn't the battery be grounded to bare metal?

    Michelin Premier LTX DT vs Defender LTX M/S

    I'm looking to replace my factory Hankooks on the OEM 22" wheels and am between the Michelin Premier LTX DT vs Defender LTX M/S tires. From what I understand, these are both recently updated tire versions. I drive mostly highway in Texas with the occasional road trip somewhere around the US...

    Lean to One Side

    I’ve seen quite a few Expeditions that are slightly leaning to the right. It is very obvious to me when driving behind my wife’s Expedition. Has anyone noticed this? I measured my Expedition at each corner from the ground to top of the wheel well and noticed the right side is a 1/2 inch lower...

    I live in Houston and had to drive through a flooded area today that was somewhat deep. Do you guys have any recommendations on what to check or replace? Does anyone know what costs are to replace transmission fluid and is it necessary? Thanks in advance.

    Disable 2nd and 3rd Row Seatbelt Airbags

    Is it possible to disable the seatbelt airbags in the 2nd and 3rd rows? I am using those rows for infant seats that are not compatible with airbag seatbelts. Currently using LATCH but will need to switch to seatbelt soon as weight is getting closer to the LATCH limit. Thanks in advance.

    Duct Tape Under Expedition From Factory

    Has anyone found parts under their Expeditions duct taped? I saw something hanging under my Expedition today and looked under and was surprised to see a whole piece duct taped. The Expedition was purchased 3 months ago, has less than 4,000 miles, and only this dealership has touched it. I...

    Bouncy CCD Suspension

    Our 2018 Expedition with CCD is a dream on the highway but seems to be very bouncy on local bumpy roads. It is almost as if the springs are too strong for the damper, causing the suspension to do several cycles before settling. Some regular road bumps feel as if we are being launched off of our...

    Brake Upgrade Options

    I've noticed the brakes on the Expedition are not as effective as my other vehicles and has what sometimes feels like slight brake fade during regular braking. I'm wondering if this is common and if there are any known upgrade options (big brake kit, pads, etc) that other owners have done...
