Rust is coming from the inside out and bubbling the paint on the rear panel below the window, but above the wheel well. It is also appearing on the back door also below the window. All this on a three year old vehicle that has been well cared for.
The ball joints needed replacing at 75,000 miles.
The location of the oil filter is in a hard location to get at. Can never seem to clean all the oil up after a change and ends up on the garage floor.
The expedition is a great family vehicle that handles more like a car than the truck it really is.
I love. My wife loves it. Heck, my kid loves it.
I have the 4.6 V-8 and it seems to have all the power I'll ever need. I haul snowmobiles in the winter and you don't even know your pulling a trailer. If your hauling heavy loads however I'd recommend the 5.4 V-8.
As far as I'm concerned, I'd buy another expedition if Ford pops for the rusting problem. Really, I mean 3 years old and it's rusting from the inside out? I think it's defective metal preparation prior to painting.
I have a eddie bauer ford also please don't scare me with all these problems.i did have to get the ball joints replaced in mine and the front shakes a little when I put my break on, but they keep telling me there is nothing wrong with it.sure hope not, but not too bad on gas mileage, but also have a caddy it is easier on gas.
