Crankcase (pcv) Problems of Ford Expedition

Started as small oil leak. After placing dye in crankcase found drivers side head gasket leaking. I am having both head gaskets replaced for 17k. There is only 49k on this truck with all normal driving. From other complaints that have been posted I do not understand why Ford has not been made to respond to the problems with their product line. This problem has been in complaints since '98. Isn't time that some accountability be taken by the manufacturer?.

The contact stated while driving vehicle experienced sudden acceleration. When depressing the brakes the rmps revved very high. When lifting foot off the brakes the vehicle accelerated. He eventually depressed the brakes hard enough so that the vehicle stopped. The cruise control was not in use. He took his vehicle to the dealer. They told him that the pcv had a leak in the vacuum system. The vehicle is now being repaired.

Since we have owned this 2003 Expedition we have had the windshield replaced due to noise and loose stripping, then, the contracting person put in the wrong years windshield. The emissions canister was cracked and was replaced. The muffler would pop after turning off the engine, but couldn't be fixed until verified by Ford. I waited for 3-4 hours one day with 3 children while they let my car run and shut off. We finally called ahead, and had them wait outside on us until we killed the engine to hear it pop. It was a poor muffler weld and was repaired. The side molding rattled badly, and was terribly faded, and that was replaced. The door gets a lot of wind noise , and a whistle in the window. They said window passed the dollar bill test and was fine but it still whistles. They, put a clear strip along inside of door to help noise. It doesn't. Then ,the rear continental tire had such horrible, uneven wear, it was extremely dangerous. Bought new tires for $600. Then rear differential malfunctioned, and would make a grinding on turning left or right. They fixed that in March 2005, and it just started doing it again. Now, there is a strange noise when revving the engine to drive coming from under the hood. It is going in tomorrow for the noise and the rear differential. On top of all the repairs, we have had a squeaky brake issue. Also, they have said they were good. They just get a lot of brake dust, just sand them. Our side windows shimmies all the time. ! I did invest in an extended warranty!.
