2009 Ford Expedition

WHEN DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED, ONCE VEHICLE HAS STOPPED FOR STOP LIGHT IT BEGINS TO SHAKE BADLY.ALSO WHEN IN PARK IT SHAKES, THE MOTOR SEEMS TO BE RATTLED BY STANDING STILL. WE CARRIED IT BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE IT STILL HAS THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SHAKING.ON CITY STREETS. IF STOP FOR LIGHT IT SHAKES. WE HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2015, AREN'T ABLE TO DRIVE IT MUCH BECAUSE OF THE SHAKING. AFRAID TO DRIVE ,FEEL UNSAFE FOR ROAD TRAVEL. SHAKES WITH A LOUD NOISE, SUCH AS RATTLING NOISE, OR VIBRATION. HAS CONTINUED FOR AS LONG AS WE'VE HAD THE EXPEDITION.

2009 FORD EXPEDITION. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO MOON ROOF FAILURE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN HE ENTERED THE VEHICLE, HE DISCOVERED THE MOON ROOF WAS LEAKING. THE MOON ROOF WOULD NOT FULLY OPEN OR CLOSE. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER, IT WOULD COST $1994.00 TO REPAIR IT. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER, THE TRACK MOON ROOF WAS AN ALUMINUM FRAME WITH PLASTIC PARTS, WHICH WAS ATTACHED TO A STEEL BODY. *JB

WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, MY WIFE'S EXPEDITION MADE A LOUD NOISE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. A FEW HUNDRED FEET LATER, IT MADE THE SAME NOISE, LOOSING POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES, CAUSING HER TO HAVE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH MINIMAL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALERSHIP, WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE FUEL PUMP PURGE VALVE HAD STUCK CLOSED, CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP TO SUCK ALL OF THE AIR OUT OF THE GAS TANK AND LITERALLY IMPLODE THE GAS TANK AND DESTROY THE FUEL PUMP ITSELF. A SEARCH ON THE INTERNET (YOUTUBE.COM IN PARTICULAR) SHOWS THAT MANY FORD MODELS 2009 AND NEWER ARE HAVING THIS SAME TROUBLE WITH THEIR NEWER STYLE VALVE. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EMISSIONS WARRANTY, DESPITE IT BEING AN EMISSIONS COMPONENT, AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY THE $2600 TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF A FORD FACTORY PART THAT CAUSED THE REST OF THE DAMAGE AND LEFT A MOVING VEHICLE WITH NO POWER STEERING OR BRAKES - NOT TO MENTION THAT A DAMAGED GAS TANK COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL FIRE HAZARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 FORD EXPEDITION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HOOD AND THE REAR LIFTGATE ON THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO CORRODE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ALUMINUM CORRODED AND THE PAINT STARTED TO FALL OFF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 152,000.

THE BRAKE SENSOR HAS MALFUNCTIONED AND I AM NOT ABLE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE OUT OF PARK. IF I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL MULTIPLE TIMES, IT WILL FINALLY SENSE THE BRAKES AND LET ME DRIVE. ALSO, SOMETIMES DURING DRIVING THE BRAKE LIGHTS WILL NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN PRESSED. FORD HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BASED ON THE DATE OF MANUFACTURE. HOWEVER, MY MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED AS IT WAS BUILD 6 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE TIMEFRAME OUTLINED BY FORD. CLEARLY THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED SINCE THE PROBLEM IS OCCURRING IN A WIDER TIMEFRAME THAN WAS DETERMINED BY FORD. *TR

I WAS DRIVING IN A SCHOOL ZONE WHEN A VEHICLE RAN A YIELD SIGN AND HIT ME ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT. MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. THE IMPACT PUSHED ME THROUGH A FENCE AND INTO A RESIDENTIAL YARD. I HIT MY HEAD ON THE WINDOW AND THE HANDLE THAT WAS MOLDED INTO THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDSHIELD. THE LEFT SIDE OF MY BODY TOOK THE IMPACT AND I WAS WEARING MY SEATBELT. I SUFFERED A TBI AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO WORK, DRIVE, AND FUNCTION FOR A YEAR. *TR

THE HYDRALIC CONTROLLER WENT OUT AFTER GETTING THE BRAKES REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. THEIR WAS NO WARNING THAT THE PUMP HAD GONE OUT. THIS ALLOWED THE BRAKES TO FAIL MAKING THE CAR A HAZARD ON THE ROAD. I WAS INFORMED BY THE FORD SERVICE TECHNICIAN THERE WAS NOT A WARNING LIGHT OF FAILURE, WAY TO CHECK IT, AND THE PART WAS NOT SUPPOSE TO FAIL. THIS CAUSING A EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN IT GOES OUT. I HAVE GOT THE OLD PART WHICH COST OVER $1000.00. *TR
