    CDF Failure - Dealer is Rebuilding Trans 2019 Expedition 41k miles

    Took our 2019 Max Platinum in at about 38k miles for harsh shifting (primarily 3rd and 5th), huge pause when engaging 5th in the AM, in July. Have ESP warranty. Dealer used the TSB that was out at the time and re-flashed the trans. It was better for a day or two, then back to the same old...

    1200 miles in 24 hours

    Left Michigan at 4pm Thursday to try to get ahead of the impending ice storm, headed to panhandle of Florida. Made it to Nashville around 2 am, kids were restless (8, 11, and 15) so we got a hotel room. 2 Youngest woke up at 5am and were hungry for breakfast LOL. Back on the road shortly...

    Back in an Expedition

    Hey everyone, I’m back LOL. Back story: we bought a CPO 2018 Expedition Platinum Max in July 2021. Had it from 60-75k miles and traded it in on a Suburban in July 2022. Loved the Expy but had a ton of warranty items including cam phasers, waste gates, Sunroof track, burned out wiper and...

    What’s a safe build date?

    Had a 2018 Expedition Platinum Max that we really liked but we had a ton of issues with it. Traded on a 22 Suburban LT (using a GM Exec coupon) that has been trouble-free, other than a massive freaking blind spot on the A-Pillar that my wife just can’t adjust her seat to see around (I even...

    Trying to figure out which direction we're going to go here... Laundry List of issues with our 18 Platinum Max.......but we love the car. We've had it back for a week now while the dealer gets parts to fix current list of issues, and literally every time I drive it, something else stops...

    Bad Cam Phasers - Causing CEL and Surging?

    (Spinoff of my other repair thread here on this specific issue, since it's becoming a major repair.) 2018 Expedition Max Platinum, CPO purchased at 60k, now has 74k. Has Ford Ext Warranty until 140k. Was flashed for the ECU update to help prevent cam phaser rattle at 62/63k. It's at the...

    Going in for laundry list of issues, is this normal?

    We really LOVE this car. It replaced a 14 Escalade that had its share of issues, but honestly my current repair list is getting long after only a year and 14k miles. We ran an oasis report on the car thru the dealer and it had never been in for warranty work before our purchase (was CPO, we...

    Sunroof just jammed, in a strange way

    2018 Platinum Max. It’s like 25 degrees out in Michigan….car is parked outside, wife runs to grocery store and says it sounds like the sunroof is partially open. I look, and sure enough, the rear edge of the front panel is dropped about 1/4” lower than the second panel. I figure it’s frozen...

    Did '20+ Model Year address all the issues?

    Looking for a replacement for our 2014 Escalade ESV, and with all the transmission issues the 15+ GM fullsize chassis SUVs are having, we are looking at newer Expeditions. Did the 2020 model year address all the issues with Cam Phasers? I know anything 20+ will have a metal oil pan...

    Jumping from GM, what to look for?

    Tired of fixing my wife's 2014 Escalade ESV.......6.2L with low miles, but the magnetic shocks, compressor, and constant electrical issues are driving me insane with only 53k miles on it. Wife only wants an 18+ Expedition MAX with either Active-X or leather. **the kicker is that I really...
