Drive control malfunction

[expeditionmax2019]

I have a 19 max Limited. I am experiencing drive control malfunction on display. It happened a few times and now is more regular. I can’t switch between different drive modes such as sport and economy. Any thoughts?

what drivetrain do you have?
Any codes or just a warning message? and what is the specific message/code?

Uh oh. I hope you don't have the same issue i had with my '19 Expedition that sat for months at the dealership due to Ford sending the wrong parts multiple times and parts being backordered (surprise surprise).

In my situation, it was an intermittent connection with the mag-ride electronic damper sensors. Long story short, they ended up having to replace the entire MAIN wiring harness of the car, as in the entire interior had to be disassembled and removed (seats, carpet, consoles, EVERYTHING). This was after they tried replacing specific modules without fixing the problem.

I got so fed up with not having my car and had to have a functional SUV that I ended up buying a new Expedition, and finagled a deal for the dealer to take the risk of the wiring harness replacement not solving the problem. I actually have no idea if the wiring harness replacement solved the issue, bc the dealer sold my car immediately afterwards.

Mine had a CCD strut with an electronic failure that caused that message.....

Same here I have 2018 Ford Expedition Platinum edition and I have had this issue since 2021. I’m currently trying to see what they offer for a by back and looking at a Lincoln Navigator.

how did this end up for you? My 2019 just started displaying these messages today. We have been experiencing a delayed start, sometimes no start, when the starter button is pushed for the last 2 weeks. Error messages just popped up today. The clock in the car swaps back to a 24 hour (military) time as well.

Sounds like a battery issue - either battery is dying, or the connections aren't 100%.
