The rear-view camera on my 2017 Ford Expedition is malfunctioning. When I shift into reverse, the rear-view image appears, but once I finish reversing and shift into Drive, the image does not go away. The reverse camera feed remains frozen on the screen, even while driving forward. To clear it, I have to manually put the vehicle into Park and then back into Drive. This has to be done nearly every time I reverse, which is a distraction and a potential safety risk while operating the vehicle. I’ve read that Ford recently issued a recall involving over 200,000 vehicles for a similar issue caused by a fault in the SYNC infotainment system. My vehicle has experienced this exact problem for years, but my VIN does not appear to be part of that recall. The issue occurs almost every time I use reverse - causing the camera to stay on the screen of the Rear-view camera system / SYNC infotainment system Please investigate whether this issue is broader than currently recalled. This malfunction compromises safe operation of the vehicle and should be addressed by Ford.

Our dog was not seen laying under the car due to not having a back up camera and was run over and died as a result. We have four small children and this is a huge issue and has been happening since we purchased the vehicle.

Master cylinder leaked into brake booster. Paid for those repairs which apparently are covered under other 2017 VIN # but not mine? Now the ABS transducer is messed up and the car needs new hydraulic pump & module.

The blend door actuator has failed on multiple occasions. There was a recall last August and we had the equipment repaired at the Ford dealership in Ayden. Just after one year it is not failed again. I called and the warranty for the equipment was 12 months. I am disappointed that we are now stuck with paying to repair what is a known equipment issue. My concern is there could be a fire or electrical concern throughout the truck. There are no warning lights, only a constant clicking sound in the rear of the truck where the blend door actuator is housed.

This incident happened on July 20, 2023. I was driving to my house when I notice that there was smoke coming out of the glove compartment of my 2017 Expedition EL. I immediately stopped at the median and opened the hood to make sure there was no fire. After that, I walked to the passenger door and when I open the door I noticed a lot more smoke coming from under the glove compartment. I open the glove compartment and notice that there was fire coming from the blower motor and on the wires around it. At this very moment, I find this issue a friend of mine happened to drive by and stopped to ask me if I needed help. He saw what was happening and provided me with 2 bottles of water. We removed the glove compartment and try to put some water toward the fire but it was too late. The fire had spread throughout the dash and subsequently, the entire vehicle was lost. I didn't have time to remove any personal items from the vehicle since the fire spread really fast and also was making a wising sound, believe to be the airbags when they deployed. Even though we have insurance I don't think it is fair for the manufacturer to clean their hand on issues like this, we lost a vehicle and they should find a way to replace it.
