Potential Consequences:
My brake fluid is low warning light came on and I checked it and my brake fluid was completely empty there was no apparent leaking from anywhere within eye sight.

I have two kids and work full time I cannot go without a vehicle and I do not feel save driving it my breaks stopped working due to the leaking fluid which is FORDS fault.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
We were on family trip and we were going up A hill and out of no where our expedition starting losing power and started to make A rattle noise and luckily we were able to pull off exit where the check engine light came on and almost turned off before we parked … just left me and my husband and my two kids stuck on the side of the road for three hours there was no warning no leaks no indications there was any problems with the vehicle we paid $275 to get it towed to the only place that was taking a vehicle on a Saturday they quoted us $16,000 that our motor was gone… So we called Ford … Pay $1200 to get it transported to the dealership where we paid $10,500 to have a whole new motor built they said it was a fluke accident they don’t have a real reason for it to happen our warranty just expired last year we had just had the oil change there before we left so there was no lack of maintenance done to the vehicle then I had to spend $550 to get a rental car to get family home … I have seen where they have recalls on the eco-boost motor for every other vehicle except for expedition my expedition is the eco-boost and Believe the issue stems from the eco-boost motor my vehicle was just barely out of powertrain warranty at 69,000 miles…. Also I have received two recalls now for the brake system which I have replaced rotors twice already which may been a part of the recall they’re just now sending us and the other recall is for the climate control front blower motor may overheat which I’m not sure if that could cause issues with our engine as well I would just like to have some help with my vehicle

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
The throttle body failed, causing the vehicle to go into limp mode while on a stretch of interstate hwy. The engine decelerated from 65 to below 5 mph immediately, causing cars and transfer trucks to have to swerve recklessly to avoid hitting me at full speed. My family was in this auto with me, which makes this even worse. From a quick search on the internet, this is a known problem and there hasn't been a recall. Will someone have to eventually die before Ford hales the problem? I now have my Expedition in the shop for repair and I'm on the hook for the cost to repair a known problem! FORD, be a responsible company and value your customer's safety!!

At the present I have a vehicle that can not be driven. The low brake fluid alarm and light came. So I stopped purchase some brake fluid and fill the master cylinder up. Not 5 minutes later the alarm goes off and low brake fluid light is on. Now I have no or little brakes. Brake Pedal goes straight to the floor. Too dangerous to drive. My vehicle is now in my drive way after another bottle of brake fluid and slowly driving home. Don't know where the fluid is going Don't see any on the ground. I was told my vehicle vin # was not included in the recall.

Additional Notes:
At the present I have a vehicle that can not be driven. The low brake fluid alarm and light came. So I stopped purchase some brake fluid and fill the master cylinder up. Not 5 minutes later the alarm goes off and low brake fluid light is on. Now I have no or little brakes. Brake Pedal goes straight to the floor. Too dangerous to drive. My vehicle is now in my drive way after another bottle of brake fluid and slowly driving home. Don't know where the fluid is going Don't see any on the ground. I was told my vehicle vin # was not included in the recall.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
At roughly 95,000 miles the bearings in the rear differential went bad on our Expedition EL. We drove it this way for a few months until we could get it properly diagnosed and repaired. It was repaired by Stearns Ford under our extended warranty (aftermarket) several weeks ago, and has been fine since the rebuild.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
At approximately 100,000 miles our park assist camera began to distort, and over the course of several weeks it finally stopped working. This has not caused any issues so far, but could pose a minor safety risk until it's fixed, as reversing in a large SUV like our Expedition EL leaves much to be desired without a park assist camera.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
On 8/15/22 I was driving when all of a sudden my brake pedal went all the way to the floor, the braking system dash light chimed and lit up a warning, and the dash read low brake fluid. I pulled over with almost zero brakes, was able to add a bottle of brake fluid. I was able to limp the car home and when I got there again no brake fluid and all warning lights on again. We added another bottle of brake fluid and let the car sit. After an hour we went back and started the car and got the same warnings. We popped the hood and again zero brake fluid, even though we have added 2 bottles. There was nothing visibly leaking. We were able to get the car a mechanic that verified there is a leak in the master cylinder and it needs to be replaced along with the brake booster. The vehicle is available for inspection. There is a recall on this model truck for the same problem but I was told my vehicle was built 10 days past the date allowed in the recall. Having this happen with no warning was extremely dangerous given that I had almost no braking power. It was a challenge moving the car off the road and back home. I had no indication anything was wrong prior to 8/15/22 until the pedal went to the floor that day. Vehicle has only been inspected by my mechanic.
