BACK OVER PREVENTION
Potential Consequences:
Rear-view cameras It is available for inspection. It has been reproduced by Gullo Ford dealership in Conroe, TX. They finally replaced it in 2020 but it continues to black out monthly for periods of time. As far as I know only the dealer has looked at it. No warning it just goes black or distorted. Invoices, letter to Ford, etc. available but I don't know how to upload. Continuing problems we have had with the [XXX] back-up camera and why its not covered now by warranty. Over the 42 months from basically inception we have had the truck up there at least 6 times to have it looked at and repaired, it still goes off for weeks at a time even though they said they replaced it the last time. Well it still doesn't work. The rear-view cameras have been out of service probably 25% of the time we have owned it (42 months). To me, this is a major safety issue. We are grandparents with alot of kids in neighborhood. You can't see out the back of an Expedition clearly without the camera. We also see Ford has recalled your 2020 similar models for the same problem. The rear-cameras are not working now. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

WHEELS:LUGS/NUTS/BOLTS/STUDS
Potential Consequences:
When I recently got tires rotated my vendor (not the car manufacturer) informed me there are known problems with lug nuts on Ford Expeditions; that apparently something about two-layer metal causing swelling and difficulty for tire repair shops to effectively remove them which causes (to a degree) stripping of them. Tire shop employee informed me and also showed me the result after they rotated and you can tell there is an issue.

Defect Description:
SUSPENSION:REAR:SHOCK ABSORBER
Potential Consequences:
The rear shocks/struts have each failed twice so far. I have had both replaced once, and the rear passenger side replaced through Ford. I am being told by El Cajon Ford the rear driver's side needs to be replaced again (and the passenger side also because they are supposed to be changed at the same time. I have the Platinum warranty for Ford, which covers the MacPherson Strut (which is what my vehicle has on the rear, it does not have individual shocks). I have had the vehicle less than 4 years, and am looking at putting the 5th set of shocks on the vehicle. For clarification, the MacPherson strut has a shock as part of its assembly. It is not a separate unit, it is a component of the MacPherson strut.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Car stops accelerating at various speeds on numerous occasions, and cannot get vehicle to propel. No propulsion occurs. Must bring vehicle to complete stop, turn off, and turn back before it will accelerate. Large wrench appears on screen, but disappears after the car is restarted. Safety issue because you cannot maintain speed or accelerate, was almost rear-ended and created potential accident trying to pull vehicle over. Took two visits to the authorized dealer to diagnose the problem as their was no "code" apparent to dealer, and was almost rear ended in between those visits. Vehicle owner quickly googled problem and noticed that N. Carolina Consumers Council had successfully petitioned NHTSA for this issue on other Fords, but that recall appears not to have included these Expeditions. Dealer replaced the throttle body.

WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
During a recent routine mileage based tire rotation and balance at an independent service center , the technician had difficulty placing the socket onto the lug nuts to remove them. He had to tap the socket wrench with a hammer to get the socket onto the nut. Tech illustrated where the lug nuts had swollen and he had seen this on other Ford vehicles. This factory lug nut is a 2-part assembly and swells over time to the point where a standard and factory supplied socket on the vehicle would not work properly if there was a situation where the tire needed to be changed .ie.. a flat on the side of the highway. This vehicle is less than 5 yrs. old... I purchased a complete new set of 24 lug nuts before leaving. A true safety issue of one being able to use the vehicle equipment to safely remove and replace a tire without concern over whether the socket will fit the lug nuts AND removing the lug nuts from the socket. I have opened a case with Ford.
