1998 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Every winter the wire from one of the lights on the running boards get snow/ice on them, and the wire breaks.
The drivers side heated seat quit working, right after the warranty was up.
The rear window wiper/washer works intermittently.
Sunroof wouldn't open (just passed warranty). The dealer wanted $1K+ to replace the track/motor, etc. I got it fixed at a local garage for $60...
General comments?
I went from a Trans Am to the EB, and although it is not a race car, it is the nicest all around vehicle I have ever owned. It is very comfortable to drive, has lots of room for all. I can't wait to get a 2003+ some day!
