I purchased this truck one year used with low miles. It has been a solid truck, no reliability issues. Starts in the winter and has great traction. Have taken a few long trips and it is very comfortable. Mileage for what it is is good. I get about 15 city and 21 highway and that eco boost turbo has plenty of power. Overall I am very happy with it.

So disappointed in Ford

I bought this car used and after only one week the blower motor went out which happened again three times within the next year. When moving across the country I was stranded for two days in a motel because something in my acceleration broke. In my last oil change I was shown coolant in my oil which means head gasket. That should be a couple thousand. Today I got in and the AC is t working. Not to mention how many plastic pieces have broken when pulling the seats forward. For the amount of money this car should be my dream but instead it is a money pit. I’ve sunk $3500 into it and I haven’t even owned it for two years. They are so confused at the dealership that I take it to saying they’ve never seen this before. I’m always waiting with the credit card for the next repair. This car has spent more time in the shop then my done 2003 Chevy.

2017 Expedition EL Platinum power running boards

I bought this Expedition used (12K miles) two years ago. I have been very satisfied with everything. After returning from vacation, I scheduled a regular oil change (36000 miles and 3 years old) with the local dealership and also mentioned the power running boards were noisy and acting up. The running board pivots and motors need to be changed at over $1500 per side. Since the mileage is 762 miles and 20 days out of bumper to bumper warranty, it's on me. The service writer gave me Ford Customer Service number. Customer Service could find NO warranty information other than the VIN and date of service. The vehicle had been a Canadian rental fleet vehicle which I bought through a US Ford dealership. Since there is nothing in the base, there is no warranty....just my tough luck.

Electrical Nightmare!

Bought this new. Had it 20 months now. At 76000km now. It’s spent 2 months on and off at the ford dealership since new. All electrical issues. Wipers, heater, side sensor, parking sensor, rear defroster, door locks, horn beeping twice absolutely every time I open or close the door.... you name it! It’s been a nightmare! When the pad under the front of the expedition filled with ice and become disconnected at the front and started scooping ice off the road at highway speed, I called roadside assistance and they asked if I could crawl under and disconnect the back of the pad! I ended up calling neighbors to come help out as it was -20 degrees out and I had children on board. Absolutely the worst vehicle I’ve ever owned. Ford itself doesn’t know how to fix their own product! Also has rear stabilizers broke before the first oil change, they were replaced, and have been replaced again since then. The only thing good about it was the ride was smooth and felt safe when the heater worked. I wouldn’t recommend this vehicle for anyone who makes a lot of miles with a family.... it’s unreliable. One highly distracting feature is the climate control for the back passengers is never an easy set up. Every time you start the vehicle you have to go through the menu to give permission to the back seat so they can set their own temperature!!! It’s frustrating!

Car is to expensive for what I got. Bought Platinum Model replacing an Expedition 10 years old. Workman ship was not what I expected for a top of the line SUV. Sun room slider was not flush with opening. A number of plastic pieces on drivers seat broke. Passenger side mirror became to pucker on simulated chrome. Sync3 will not allow favorite stations from FM-AM-Sirius to be on same bar. Rear lights are regular bulbs and weak for SUV, headlights are not very bright. Expected a lot in the 10 years from one model to the 2017. Drives ok, great acceleration for a V6, millage is poor. Have to fiddle with displays to get them close to what I want, but not what I want. Map system navigation is poor and does not update quickly when In use. General layout is ok (same as 10 year old model).
