•Steering assist fault and yes it is available to inspect •Power steering went out while driving. Could not turn properly as vehicle was hard to turn wheel and was almost hit on icy road. Had two children and pregnant wife in vehicle with me. •Problem is continuous and has been verified by dealer as well as an independent service center. •It has been inspected by local Ford dealership •No there were no prior warnings. It just happened when driving and now happens every time on startup. No power steering. This began in November 2022. We have been patiently waiting on Ford to receive these parts as it's been confirmed that there is a failure in the power steering module. There is no update or time frame for receiving parts and getting a repair. After searching for answers it seems this has happened to many others with these same year Expeditions and F-150

We own a 2016 Expedition King Ranch Edition which we purchased new in 2016. Last September we received a recall notice on the air conditioner blower motor. Three or four days after we received the notice, our blower motor failed. We took the car to Wichita Falls Ford in Wichita Falls, Tx, which is where we normally have it serviced. They did not have the recall replacement parts at that time, and so replaced it using the original parts that they were able to obtain. About six weeks later, that blower motor also failed. They told us they were no longer able to obtain the original parts and that the recall replacement parts were still not available. We use air conditioning year round here in Texas, but we were able to get through the winter without too much discomfort. However, seven months later and apparently parts are STILL not available. The car is pretty much useless to us for the foreseeable future, now that summer temps are upon us. Are we the only ones in this predicament? I ask because it doesn’t seem to us to be a priority for Ford to come up with this part. I contacted Ford through online chat and email a couple of weeks ago to no avail.

Bought the 2016 vehicle January 2017. Shortly after purchase I noticed slight bubbling in the paint on the edges of the hood and especially the bottom of the lift gate. It has progressed over the years and now the paint is coming off- a large piece off the front hood and all along the bottom of the lift gate. Ford has no recalls on it yet, but it's a well cared for vehicle, garaged at night and when not in use during the day. The paint should not be bubbling or coming off. Thank you- Suzanne

I was driving at ~40 mph and the car suddenly lost power and decelerated. The wrench dash light came on. The car was forced into limp mode. The p2112 code showed on my OBD scanner. The code indicates a throttle body actuator stuck closed. The car started to run very rough, was stuck in 2nd gear and would only do 5 mph. Upon turning off and restarting vehicle the wrench light turned off and the throttle response was normal. I will have to replace the throttle body at my expense as the car is past warranty. I will keep the part for inspection. The road was relatively empty so it did not cause an accident. In heavy traffic at highway speeds this might have caused an injury wreck. The sudden deceleration without any brake lights could easily result in a rear end collision. If the deceleration happened in the middle of an intersection, a side impact or offset front collision could be the result. I have multiple scan tools and am quite proficient at using them. I also have access to the ford service manuals for my vehicle. No one has inspected the part. The vehicle had no warning lamps prior to incident. The wrench light came on at the same time the car suddenly decelerated.

Multiple times while driving the vehicle I had trouble getting the brakes to work while driving and needing to slow down or coming to a complete stop. This almost resulted in an accident 2 times. We thought it was the current related to recall 22S11 which we had fixed already in July 2022. However, it is an issue that is not a reported recall at the moment. It is for the Hydrolic Control Unit. Ford will not replace this part at their cost and is forcing me to pay even though it is a major safety issue.
