2015 Ford Expedition

AT ABOUT 56000 MILES, WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT ABOUT 55 MPH, THE WRENCH LIGHT CAME ON AND THE TRUCK WENT INTO, WHAT I NOW KNOW AS, CRAWL HOME MODE. I HAD TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTART THE TRUCK. ABOUT A WEEK LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED. TO IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IS WAS PURCHASED AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY. I WAS TOLD THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY AND WOULD BE CLOSE TO $500.00 TO REPAIR. AFTER DOING SOME SEARCHES ONLINE I FOUND THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH THOUSANDS OF LATE MODEL FORDS, SOME OF WHICH FORD AGREED TO REPAIR AND OFFER A LONGER WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THERE WERE ABNORMAL FUMES INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOVELAND FORD (999 E. EISENHOWER BLVD, LOVELAND, CO 80537) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE UNDERCOATING AND MUFFLER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000.

DRIVING ON A CITY STREET ABOUT TO GET ONTO A HIGHWAY CAR STARTED TO STUMBLE THEN DIED OUT. WE GOT IT STARTED BACK UP BUT NO THROTTLE. HAD IT TOWED BACK HOME. I HOOKED UP AN OBD2 CODE READER AND THE CODES WERE P2112 AND P2111 ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. I FOUND SOME INFO ONLINE LIKE A RECALIBRATION TEST ( KEY ON, PRESS PEDAL DOWN SLOWLY THEN RELEASE SLOWLY, THEN TURN KEY OFF). STARTED BACK UP LIKE THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. THIS CAR HAS 38,000 MILES THIS SEAMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE, IF WE WERE TO TURN IN FRONT OF SOMEONE AND IT DIED OUT WE COULD OF GOT HIT!!! I WILL BE TAKING IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED, CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY

DRIVING VEHICLE ON STREET, WHEN HIT 40 MPH, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CHECK MANUAL WRENCH. VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND LOSS OF POWER. CONTINUED TO IDLE. WAS ABLE TO PULL OUT OF TRAFFIC. TRIED TO TURN VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STILL ON AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN PUT INTO DRIVE. GOT IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. TOLD THAT THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY STUCK IN CLOSED POSITION- 2015 FORD EXPEDITION, 52000 MILES.

IT STATRED OUT THE CAR LOST POWER AN WENT 5MLS AN HOUR. I THUGAHT THE TRAINNY HAD GONE BUT TURNED OUT NO!! I CALLED THE DEALER I GOT IT FROM SAID HE WAS SURE IT WAS THE THROATLE BODY AS IT WAS STILL MOVEING. TOLD ME TO TURN IT ON AN OFF TRI TO RESET IT AN SO I DID AN YES IT DID THE 1ST TIME BUT AFTER THAT IT TOOK OFF GOING 80 REFUSED TO STOP I HAD TO LITTERLY PUSH ALL BRAKES ON AN PULL THE KEY TO GET IT TO STOP.. WHEN I CALLED FORD MOTOR COMPANY THE LADY 1ST GOT WAS POLIT TOOK THE INFO BUT PHONE DIS COUNCTED THE NEXT WOME I GOT WAS RUD AN UGLY SAID THIS WAS MY OWN PROBLY DISPIT THIS BEING A 2015 AN ONLY HAVEINE THE VEHCLE LESS THEN 6MONTHS.. IM VERY DISPOINTED IN FORD IF MY KIDS AN I HAD BEEN HURT WOW

FILED COMPLAINT FEW MONTHS BACK, 10985979. SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. STARTED TO HAPPEN AGAIN, THIS TIME IT HAPPENED AROUND 15 TIMES IN A 200 MILE PERIOD. HAPPENED DURING ALL DRIVING CONDITIONS, CITY AND HIGHWAY, FROM A STOP TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS. NO WARRING JUST FULL LOSS OF POWER. SHUT TRUCK OFF, RESTARTED AND RAN NORMALLY FOR 6-10 MILES THEN WOULD SHUT DOWN AGAIN. AFTER THE 3RD TIME A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. DROVE TO THE NEAREST FORD DEALER. THEY ENDED UP CHANGING THE THROTTLE BODY ASSY DUE TO A FAILURE OF A INTERNAL COMPONENT.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A STEEP GRADE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO JERK AND SHAKE, THE WRENCH SYMBOL POPPED UP AS WELL AS A WARNING SEE OWNERS MANUAL. AS I SAFELY GOT OFF THE ROAD I HAD WAITED FOR CARS TO PASS BY BEFORE I TRIED TO RE EMERGE ONTO THE ROAD AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE TO A FULL PRESS OF THE GAS PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE WOULD ONLY GO APPROX. 1 MILE HR. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WAS ABOUT TO CALL A TOW TRUCK AND I DECIDED TO TURN THE VEHICLE BACK ON AND I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT LET ME DRIVE WITH NO ISSUES. AFTER MY INCIDENT I WENT HOME TO GOOGLE THE SYMPTOMS IT APPEARED TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH FORD VEHICLES. HOW EVER UNDER THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM MY VEHICLE WAS NOT LISTED BUT YET HAS THE SAME ISSUES. I WOULD LIKE TO START AN INVESTIGATION IN THIS MATTER AS SAME OTHER CONSUMERS MIGHT NOT BE AS SKILLFULLY OF A DRIVER AS MYSELF AND POSSIBLY CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH OVER THIS ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (70 MPH), WENT TO PASS TRAFFIC, TRUCK DOWNSHIFTED, SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT CAME ON AND TRUCK LOST ALL POWER. TRANSMISSION WAS STUCK IN 4TH GEAR AND ENGINE WOULD NOT REV ABOVE IDLE. PULLED OVER AND SHUT OFF TRUCK. RESTARTED AND EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. A FEW DAYS LATER SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN, THIS TIME WAS ON A CITY STREET (20MPH) AND TRANS WAS STUCK IN 3RD GEAR.
