2010 Ford Expedition Recalls, Ratings & Complaints

Incident: March 16, 2026 · Filed: March 19, 2026

The transmission is malfunctioning. The shifting in the gears has become rough with kick or clunk feeling. This happens when increasing speed and decreasing speed. The Transmission has even gotten stuck in 2nd, and 4th gears. Our safety was at risk because when the gears were stuck the vehicle would not increase in speed, in the flow if traffic. The transmission has been inspected by 3 Transmission Mechanic shops, and has been confirmed by all 3. There have not been warning signs or lights on the dashboard to alert us of the problem. This appears to be random and out of the blue. The truck is available for inspection upon request.

My vehicle will just shut off. No warning. No lights. It shuts off, I have to turn on my hazards, put it in park and restart the vehicle. It has shut off whether I am going forward/straight or turning, going 25 MPH - 40 MPH. it has shut off as I am turning and cars are coming down the street; at a school zone; under an under pass; one time we were on the freeway and it kept wanting to shut off but had to really press on the gas to keep it going and thankfully we made it to the service center. Sometimes it feels like the gas peddle is pushing my foot back. you press on the gas and nothing happens. Other times it seems to accelerate on its own. I have had this happen multiple times since we bought the vehicle in May of 2022., sometimes 4 or 5 times in a day. I have taken it to two different service places and neither could replicate the problem. One mechanic told me he thinks it could be the body control module. I take my niece and nephews to and from school and it certainly does not feel safe, but it is my only working vehicle and it is aggravating and I am getting tired and frustrated of this happening. PLEASE HELP.

FIRST INCIDENT IN MARCH 2019 FROM PARKED POSITION, PUT CAR IN DRIVE AND IT "RACED" OUT OF CONTROL, TRIED TO BRAKE AND FINALLY STOPPED THE CAR JUST SHORT OF JUMPING CURB ACROSS THE STREET. IN MAY 2019 WAS LEAVING A PARKING AREA AND CAR REPEATED SAME THING. TOOK LONGER TO STOP, BUT HAD THERE BEEN ANOTHER CAR OR PEDESTRIAN IN FRONT OF ME, COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS. WITHIN THE LAST WEEK, (JUNE 15), IF CAR IS IDLING EITHER AT LIGHT OR IN PARK, ENGINE WILL START RACING. TURN OFF CAR AND RESTART, IT WILL START AGAIN, BUT WITHOUT MY TOUCHING ACCELERATOR, WHEN CAR IS IN DRIVE WILL "CRUISE " AT 25 MPH. CAN EITHER BE STATIONERY IN PARK OR SITTING AT LIGHT WHEN CAR IN DRIVE. AM GETTING AFRAID TO DRIVE. HAVE ONLY HAD CAR SINCE MARCH 12, 2019 AND LAST INCIDENT WAS YESTERDAY JUNE 25, 2019.

FORD VEHICLE SHUTS OFF SPORADICALLY WITH MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING AND STATIONARY. THE BRAKES ALSO SEIZE UP TO THE POINT WHERE THEY OVER HEAT AND COULD CATCH FIRE. THE MOST RECENT EVENT HAPPENED MAY 15TH AFTER PICKING THE CAR UP FROM MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TO TRY AND REPAIR WHAT FORD DEALERSHIPS HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO REPAIR. IT SHUT OFF ON THE WAY HOME. MAY 16TH THE BRAKES LOCKED UP. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A OVER A YEAR. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS AND WAS RECENTLY AT AUTO NATION FORD IN UNION CITY GA FOR OVER A MONTH AWAITING A PART THAT NEVER SHOWED UP. I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP AND TOOK IT TO ANOTHER LOCAL SHOP THAT WAS ABLE TO SECURE THE PART AND REPLACE IT, BUT THAT STILL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SO FAR, I'VE SPENT UPWARDS OF $8000 IN THE SPAN OF A YEAR AND THE ISSUE STILL HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVE. REPAIRS FROM BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS TO THE CALIPERS AND HYDRAULIC SYSTEM AND EVEN A FULL 4X4 TRANSFER CASE ASYMBLEY SO FAR NONE OF THE REPAIRS HAS WORKED. IT HAS SHUT OFF IN THE PAST WHILE DRIVING TO WORK ON THE EXPRESS WAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AREAS. THIS VEHICLE IS JUST UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND OTHER VIDEOS OF FORD OWNERS THAT ARE ALSO GOING THROUGH THIS ISSUE WITH THE SAME RESULTS. I HAVE VIDEO WHICH IS THE BEST VISUAL SINCE THERE ARE MULTIPLE WARNINGS THAT POP UP.
