July 30, 2023, I was in car wreck with my Ford Expedition, 2017. The other car ran red light and hit my Ford in left front ahead of front wheel. Other car traveling approx 35 mph, by police report. Side airbag fizzled with smoke an did not deploy. Neither front airbag deployed. No airbags deployed. Ford was considered a total loss by both insurance companies involved. This vehicle has 5 star safety rating and that was considered in my purchase. I purchased Ford in oct 2016, new. It was always serviced by Ford dealer here. This vehicle does not deserve 5 star rating.
Recalls fixed 11/15/2022 on my 2017 Ford Expedition. I purchased in March 2018 after picking up my Ford from winner Ford, dover DE yesterday 11/15/2022 I realized my backup camera screen is fuzzy, the stopped working before I even left the premises. In 2022 Ford recalled Expedition backup carmera camera with distorted screens but not for 2017. I have had 2 batteries. There has to be an electrical problem. My remote start stopped working in 0ctober 2022 after the recalls were fixed but my keyfob can still lock and unlock, my driver power seat does not move when started or turning off, my doors will not lock using the door buttons, when I open my drivers door there's and alarm as if there's a light on or a malfunction. Fordpass sync will not update to the system to newest version and my Ford. I have Ford connected service on my Ford pass app.
Tack welds on vehicle roof rusted out along passenger side, causing water and other structural damage to electrical components, vehicle body, and other vehicles components. Water leak caused mold and mildew damage to headliner, carpet, etc. Air quality in vehicle diminished for passengers, variety of children age ranges.
The rocker panels have rusted completely out. I've found information online where people have brought it to Ford dealerships attention to be told Ford knows water leaks into the rocker panels and sits and rots out. My kids have all caught their ankles and cut them horribly. Our back up camera only works once in a great while.
