One problem related to steering noise has been reported for the 2000 Ford Expedition. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2000 Ford Expedition based on all problems reported for the 2000 Expedition.
At high speed, on long sustained, steep grades 5-7%, at high rpm, the steering locks up for 2-10 seconds. The steering makes a noise and then breaks free. I have brought this to the dealership 4 times and they say they can not find a problem and can not reproduce this event. Every time I drive into the colorado mountains this problems recurs. This problem never shows up on flat terrain. This problem is extremely dangerous. The Ford representative has indicated to me that 5 other complaints have been given but that no one has ever reproduced the problem. ****dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut-over to artemis****769312.
