While driving in traffic, my wife's expedition made a loud noise in the engine compartment. A few hundred feet later, it made the same noise, loosing power steering and power brakes, causing her to have to pull off to the side of the road with minimal control of the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the nearest Ford dealership, who informed me that the fuel pump purge valve had stuck closed, causing the fuel pump to suck all of the air out of the gas tank and literally implode the gas tank and destroy the fuel pump itself. A search on the internet (youtube.com in particular) shows that many Ford models 2009 and newer are having this same trouble with their newer style valve. I was told this was not covered under the emissions warranty, despite it being an emissions component, and that

The drive shaft is bad. My expedition is shaking very bad at high speeds it shakes the rear view mirror. I took it back to the dealership where I got it from 3 months after I got it because they thought it was the shocks. They replaced both rear shocks. Contol arms, body mounts. Got all brand new tires which have been balanced and rotated and the vehicle is still shaking at 60 + mpr. A while back in kept hearing a bird chirping noise but later found it that's due to drive shaft. Also of clunking going on under truck.

I think too much exhaust gas comes inside

I was driving in a school zone when a vehicle ran a yield sign and hit me on the drivers side front. My airbags didn't deploy. The impact pushed me through a fence and into a residential yard. I hit my head on the window and the handle that was molded into the drivers side windshield. The left side of my body took the impact and I was wearing my seatbelt. I suffered a tbi and have been unable to work, drive, and function for a year. *tr

My vehicle has been in jerry's Ford in alexandria, va for over 2 weeks this time. Over a month all together over the last 3 months. I can't get them to give me a similar vehicle as loaner or tell me when my car will be fixed. I can't get a manager from Ford to call me back.

Lower retaining bolt between strut and wheel hub has failed causing head of bolt to shear off (see photos) on front passenger side suspension assembly. Bolt head was found lying in driveway and sheared bolt was found on inspection of vehicle. Vehicle may have been in motion at low speed or stationary at time of failure. Appears to be material failure of the bolt in which a cracked formed and propagated across the bolt until the it could no longer withstand shear forces. Am concerned about the 3 other retaining bolts on this vehicle at the other wheels.

The ABS light stays on and the vehicle wobbles when stopping. The brakes look fine and the rotors appear to be good. *tr

When driving at normal speed, once vehicle has stopped for stop light it begins to shake badly.also when in park it shakes, the motor seems to be rattled by standing still. We carried it back to the dealer for service it still has the same issue with the shaking.on city streets. If stop for light it shakes. We had the vehicle since november of 2015, aren't able to drive it much because of the shaking. Afraid to drive ,feel unsafe for road travel. Shakes with a loud noise, such as rattling noise, or vibration. Has continued for as long as we've had the expedition.
