    2018 Bluetooth Sync issue

    Good morning, We have a 2018 Expy XL. So the very basic package on the Sync from Ford. Has been working great with my Android phone until I tried to update the software. I had it updating via wireless, actually sat there for 15-20 min and it kept showing the "updating circle" but never...

    AC not cold at idle

    I read something similar on another thread but thought it would be odd to just manifest itself at idle. Will ask dealership when I take it in.

    AC not cold at idle

    Thanks for all of the replies everyone! Will take it to the dealer and have them assess. Glad for once some went askew while under warranty. Appreciate all of the input!

    AC not cold at idle

    So even if that is disabled when I start the vehicle? Ugh. I was hoping there was a fan defective at idle that was supposed to provide the air flow. Has anyone added an auxiliary fan to solve this

    AC not cold at idle

    Good morning, We have a 2018 Expy and live in Texas. So, the heat here is significant in the summer. I noticed that when the Expy is at idle, the temp of the air coming out of the AC vent is basically luke warm, certainly not anywhere near cold. Once I start moving, all is well and it blows...

    2018 Expy Passenger window exploded outwards!

    I agree on the point of impact. Odd thing is that it is behind the mirror, yet the mirror is undamaged. No marks. Going to give Ford a chance to step up to the plate on this one, but I do not have high hopes. Already called Acme Glass.

    2018 Expy Passenger window exploded outwards!

    I'm sorry but I find no humor in this. It was dangerous and thankfully there was no one sitting in the passenger seat. I posted here only to see if anyone else had experienced this as there are numerous accounts of rear glass suddenly shattering in the older Expys.

    2018 Expy Passenger window exploded outwards!

    I looked around, was just acres of pastures, not a soul in sight. I had just turned the heater on...but that should not put anyone at risk of being around a window getting blown out like that. God forbid there had been a child sitting there.

    2018 Expy Passenger window exploded outwards!

    Gotcha. Well I have had something hit a window from the outside on another vehicle, definitely had glass everywhere inside. This is just so weird how it is completely arched outward, much more than normally for the glass. Doesn't show well in the photos. And I never heard anything hit it like...

    2018 Expy Passenger window exploded outwards!

    I was not home when happened. Was on a 1 lane each way highway headed to Dallas. Was not pellets or gone, nothing in vehicle. No reason why pressure in cabin would suddenly escalate to such an extreme to blow out a window. I was just driving along listening to radio.

    2018 Expy Passenger window exploded outwards!

    So driving down a 2 lane highway with no other cars around me, suddenly the front passenger blows OUT with a loud noise! Definitely blown outward, not inward like something hit me. Hardly any glass inside, definitive hole where everything radiates from and the remaining glass in bowed outward...

    Engine shuts off when in park for extended period

    Hi all, I wasn't sure which thread might have already addressed this question. We have a 2018 Expy Max 4x4. We often take our dogs and at times, for 15-30 min, leave them in our vehicle with the engine running. Usually we are at a dog show and loading the rest of our equipment after the dogs...

    Expedition Max XL Fleet

    I was wondering the same. My husband was thinking it was likely a large company that bought several of these, didn't use them all as expected and sent the others to auction. Who knows. I have put about 4000 miles on it so far, towed a 31' TT with it (it did awesome!) and have,knock on wood...

    Expedition Max XL Fleet

    https://www.zeckford.com/inventory/used-2018-ford-expedition-max-xl-4wd-4d-sport-utility-1fmjk1gt8jea50763 This is a great deal. Just bought a similar unit, only difference is mine is silver instead of black. Love it!

    Any 30'+ Travel Trailer owners out there?

    What is your GVWR on your trailer?

    Towing and offroading impressions

    I've been researching this quite a bit. If you look on the dash, you should see the integrated brake controller, will be to the right of the steering wheel, by the radio. Also, if you look at the door label, under "axle" it will have a 3L if it has 3.73 differential. It will also have a 7-pin...

    2015-2017 Gear ratios and towing

    We are on the same page. Decided yesterday that I am going to get the camper set up for travel like we would have it, full of water, etc and go weigh it. Then make a decision on what I want to pull it with. Wish I could do a pick up but just can't since we travel with 3 - 100# dogs that need...

    Photos of Trailer(s) that you tow with your Expedition

    Thanks. We have a 33' rockwood ultralite and are wanting to get an expedition to pull it. At the moment we are using a 1 ton van which does great, but I need to replace my older Tahoe and am looking at the expeditions. Trailer is about 8300-8500# loaded, tongue weight about 10%. So I'm trying...

    2015-2017 Gear ratios and towing

    Do not trust the dealer, trust the yellow sticker on the truck door frame. Dealers will quote you maximum figures for the vehicle platform, not necessarily the one you are looking at buying. I have been looking at the yellow sticker. I have yet to find one over 1382# payload capacity. I was...
