| Went out to warm up our ford expedition for work. upon starting it heard a loud boom and the engine sounded loud. had it towed to garage. found out that the #7 spark plug blew out. for safety sake, ford should admit to the defect in the engine, and issue a recall. | |||

| Purchased 2003 expedition xlt in 9/03 and had the following problems within one week of purchase: a/c noise & decreased volume when max a/c is on; rattling noise from side panels (which also showed fading within 3 months and were replaced); washer fluid light showed low when full; foam loose around defroster. by 12/03, stereo system replaced due to loud whining noise; has been replaced 3 times (problem still recurring); 2/04 sun roof leaking profusely into 2nd row seat area (same problem occurred a month later though repaired). when dealer's subcontractor repaired moonroof the second time, the technican neglected to screw rear seatbelt bolt tightly back to side panel. seatbelt bolt broke away from side panel while child was sitting in seat! dealer repaired and checked all seat belt attachments at my request but did not offer to determine source of problem until i insisted. service mgr initially reported he thought it was a factory defect, until they researched the problem in detail. i strongly recommend that ford have a policy that any safety devices removed or tampered with during any repair should be double checked for proper operation prior to returning vehicle to owner. *ak | |||

| 2003 eddie bauer expedition - we have the dvd player which was already in place when we purchased the vehicle. when the screen is down, it is almost impossible to see out the back window. i don't see how this can be legal, as it blocks the drivers view from approaching emergency vehicles, as is what happened to me the other day while driving with my children.*ak | |||
