While parked overnight, the panoramic sunroof shattered upwards. There is zero evidence of an impact. While opening door to stand on retractable running boards to take a picture, the center area of glass collapsed into the SUV. Rain storms in area and had to immediately tarp roof. Was on vacation 13 hours from home. Had to drive home at 60 MPH and re-tarp the sunroof in excess of 5 times. If this happened while driving there would have been dramatic impact to driver distraction and…

I bought a new 2025 Ford Expedition Max King Ranch back in February. After driving it for awhile.....it was noticed that the front windshield is defective (star shape or spackling) and have been reported to the dealership that I bought from and another dealership way closer to me (West Hills Ford). This is making it hard to drive and it a safety issue also. You only see it at sunrise and sunset. West Hills said they see it no one, even myself can get a picture of it. With that FORD is denying…

In early 2022 I was going to retrieve my wallet from the console area of my wife's 2019 Ford Expedition when thumb was lacerated by something on the vehicle. I was unable to find what exactly had cut my thumb. A few months later on June 7, 2022 my wife was injured when her hand was lacerated by a sharp piece of chrome trim in the console area of the same vehicle. The injury to her hand was much worse than mine and resulted in a significant scar. I have attached pictures of the injury and a…

2020 FORD EXPEDITION
Filed Jun 18, 2026
The transmission (10R80) in the 2018-2022 Ford Expedition and Ford F-150 vehicles are failing at an alarming rate. There are hard shifts, hesitation, and some vehicles, like mine, drop out of gear at highway speeds putting myself and my family at risk of a traffic collision. The repairs are in the many thousands and there are tens of thousands of transmissions that are failing. Something needs to be done to protect the consumer.

There is a very common problem with the passenger side headlight daytime running lights on the 2018-2023 Ford Expedition. The daytime running lights go dim, completely fail, or turn purple, as has happened on my 2020 Ford Expedition Platinum. This has created a safety issue due to the DRLs no longer functioning as intended. There is no fix for the consumer aside from replacing the entire headlight assembly, removing the entire front fascia in the process, at a cost of $1500 or more per light…
