Failure Date: 06/11/2019

My dash vents are not sending any a/c out the front vents, and I also feel heat from the floor board of my car along with exhaust emissions. I know that the san diego police had the same problem with their Expeditions and they were recalled and repaired,now they changed to Ford explorers . Is there anything still on the books for the Expeditions? the vehicle can be in any function,it is just not working, and also I hear a tumpping noise in my right rear panel. I am unable to send any pictures because everything is covered.

Rusted out rocker panels, brake lines, front end radiator mounts, fender mounts. The entire under carriage is rusting away.

Failure Date: 01/15/2015

Our 2004 Ford Expedition eddie bauer suddenly turns off while we are driving at any speed. In a year's time, it has turned off four or more times. Most of those times, we were traveling at speeds of about 60mph. All of the power shuts off, steering and brakes included. We turn the key off and it does restart. Luckily we have not been in any terrible accidents!.

Paint failure ref. TSB# 06-25-15 robert e. Pope 2776 lantern la. Audubon PA. 19403 tel. 610-666-5326.

7 Equipment problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2013

My truck has started making a very loud noise coming from the front under side of the vehicle. Upon further investigation we have discovered that there was excessive rust and corrosion on the frame. This has caused parts of the engine to shift and rub/ collide with other parts and cause the noises. Our mechanic and my husband both feel that the rust and corrosion have made the vehicle unsafe to drive. There is no way to tell when any part of the engine/vehicle could break free, possibly causing more damage and or an accident while driving. Our vehicle is very well maintained and the amount of rust and corrosion is excessive for the year and mileage on the vehicle. The lack of ability to tell when or where the framework may give out makes it unsafe in our opinion to drive. Especially with children in the vehicle most of the time. The corrosion is also so excessive we believe it is not repairable by any body shop. My frustration with this is that we had not planned on getting a new vehicle and were planning on driving it for quite awhile longer. Other then the rust and corrosion the vehicle is in fairly good condition. . I believe that the rust and corrosion sounds very similar to that described on the windstars and should be investigated along with the windstars problems. Finally there is also excessive bubbling of the paint in various locations of the vehicle.
