Consumer Complaints(112 total, showing 10)

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Vehicle has roughly 64,000 miles on it. As we were actively driving, vehicle suddenly lost power and completely shut off. This was a sudden stall. Vehicle would not crank back up but starter would engage. Upon scanning the trouble codes, multiple codes came up in regard to the fuel pump issue that is currently under investigation. (P008A, P00C6, P0304) This issue poses a serious risk as while actively driving, could cause an accident and should be an active recall for this year make and model.

STEERING,SUSPENSION,WHEELS

1. There was front suspension failure where the lower ball joint has separated, causing the steering knuckle and wheel assembly to detach and collapse while driving- yes it is available to inspect if done tomorrow 2. Driver could not control car, passengers and other cars on road in immediate danger. Car was swerving with loss of control 3 Independent service center looked-this should have not have happened. 4 No happened yesterday was going to bring to dealer after Ind looked at it 5. No warning

VISIBILITY/WIPER

I am reporting a potential safety defect involving the HVAC air vent assemblies in my 2022 Ford Expedition. I have now had TWO separate vent directional-control/deflector handles break during normal use. The plastic attachment points are extremely thin and fragile and appear inadequate for a component specifically designed to be routinely adjusted. This does not appear to be an isolated incident. Broken HVAC vent controls/deflectors have been reported MULTIPLE times by Ford owners across various online Ford forums and owner discussions. The number of similar consumer reports raises concern that this may be a recurring design or material defect rather than normal wear or accidental damage. When the control breaks, the vent can no longer be properly aimed. This creates a potential visibility issue because HVAC airflow is necessary to clear condensation and fog from the windshield and front side windows. In hot humid climate, windows can fog rapidly. Losing the ability to properly direct airflow can delay clearing the glass and reduce driver visibility. The defect also prevents proper A/C airflow from being directed toward the driver. Florida vehicles can reach extremely high interior temperatures when parked. Reduced ability to direct cold air toward the driver can contribute to excessive heat exposure, discomfort, fatigue, dehydration, and potentially heat-related illness, which may impair safe vehicle operation. Having two separate vent controls fail under normal use, combined with numerous similar reports from other Ford owners, suggests a possible systemic durability defect. I am requesting that NHTSA review complaints involving 2022 Ford Expeditions and other Ford vehicles using the same vent assemblies to determine whether an investigation or corrective action is warranted.

POWER TRAIN

The contact owns a 2022 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that while driving 20 MPH, the transmission was sticking. The failure was a recurring failure. The dealer was contacted, and the vehicle received a software update; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE

Unknown

LANE DEPARTURE

The ipma module which controls the lane keep assist has stopped working permanently. The dealership has quoted the cost to replace the ipma at over $1,000. The warning light stating that the front camera module and lane keep assist are unavailable appears each time the vehicle is started up.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

ABS break lights and Service Advanced Trac lights flashing and beeping. Eventually Break fluid low lights came on and car would not break when driving . Leaked break fluid on driveway. Car was unable to be driven, no breaks .all happened very quickly and without any reason .i had it towed to a break mechanic and he said it was the ABS modular break line that was broken and there was no more break fluid and it had leaked out . He suggested I send it to the dealership. It sounds like the exact same issue as the recall # 25S47 on campaign 25V314 but my vin number does not fall under they but shows it is the same Kentucky plant and year so I do believe it is the same issue

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE,VISIBILITY,STRUCTURE

The contact owns a 2022 Ford Expedition. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Numbers: 25V455000 (Fuel System, Gasoline), 26V204000 (Visibility), and 26V368000 (Structure); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.

POWER TRAIN,ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

While driving on the highway, my 2022 Ford Expedition suddenly lost acceleration. The gas pedal stopped responding completely and the vehicle gradually lost power until it shut off. It had to be towed and the battery was fully drained afterward. It was later diagnosed as a fuel pump failure. This was a sudden loss of propulsion in traffic and created a serious safety concern. Police pulled over and were able to get me towed to the nearest safe stop as my car stopped on a bridge with no shoulder.

SEAT BELTS,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE

The collision avoidance system repeatedly faults and becomes unusable. Also, the 2nd row bench seat belt locks without warning. This posses a great risk in a crash.
