My 2019 expedition has 6 thousand miles and the front shocks are already bad. Regular driving. Have only had it 6 months. Has anyone else had this issue?
Dealer is replacing front shocks as we speak.

I bought my Expedition with about 70K miles. By 90K, 1 rear shock blew. By 95K the other rear shock blew. Within another 20K, one of the replacement rear shocks blew. I then replaced both with Bilsteins. My mom also had both her rear shocks blow under 10K on her 2019 Explorer. I had a ton of suspension problems on all of my previous Fords too, so I've just kind of come to expect that their suspension components are crap.

If you’re wondering if anyone else had problems with leaking shocks on the new generation of Expeditions, read this: https://www.expeditionforum.com/threads/3rd-shock-blown-out-on-2018-xlt.40601/page-12#post-387395

I bought a new 2015 (3rd generation) Expedition Limited 4x4. At about 6,*** miles - the RF shock began leaking. It was ordered by the dealer and remained on backorder for at least a month.

Classic POOR quality - with nothing done to improve it by Ford.
