2019 FORD EXPEDITION
Filed Aug 24, 2026

The transmission does not appear to be shifting between 5th and 6th gears. This creates a safety concern because the vehicle does not always accelerate when expected, specifically when entering or merging with highway traffic. I took the vehicle to a Ford dealership on August 24, 2026. I described the symptomsā¦

There are two other complaints filed with NHTSA regarding this problem. In my case the left turn signal DOES NOT CANCEL AFTER RETURN TO CENTER. This is a potentially dangerous situation, since other drivers don't know what moves you might be intending to make. Ford claimsā¦

2022 FORD EXPEDITION
Filed Aug 16, 2026
I am reporting a potential safety defect involving the HVAC air vent assemblies in my 2022 Ford Expedition. I have now had TWO separate vent directional-control/deflector handles break during normal use. The plastic attachment points are extremely thin and fragile and appear inadequate for a component specifically designed to be routinely adjusted. This does not appear to be an isolated incident. Broken HVAC vent controls/deflectors have been reported MULTIPLE times by Ford owners acrossā¦
