2017 Ford Expedition Engine

Water pump failure, coolant leaking everywhere now on garage floor, loud sound coming from engine when driving home previously presumably from water pump. No warning lamps or indicators prior. Just a different loud sound from engine (water pump).

Coolant leaked into the starter causing the vehicle to not start. The EcoBoost seems to be a major issue for Ford, and this most recent issue should be covered under a recall.

Everything is full of oil. Itis being replaced right now at a total of 11,000$,by an independent ford mechanic . I know of three other people with this engine in my area that the same thing has happened to. There were no lights or warning signs ofany trouble.

Few times engine goes on idle and wrench light comes on, manage to move to shoulder and turn engine off and back on and like nothing happened, but is doing the same more often, very dangerous in highways all of sudden power in engine is gone, should get recall to make sure fuel systems or engine is ok

We were on vacation and on our way back to the hotel from hiking on our last night in North Carolina. The check engine light came on and the car started sputtering and the accelerator would not work. We were slowing down and the car just would not go. We put it in park and turned the car off and sat there for 10 minutes. We turned the car back on and and then the wrench light came on. We had to keep turning the car on and off for the last 5 miles of the drive home which took us over an hour with letting the car cool off and turning it back on. When we did manage to go, we could only drive 25 mph. This was on a holiday weekend. We had to pay another $150 to stay where we were to get the car towed to the dealership. We then had to wait for the dealership to open to take the car and fix the problem which then cost me $800. Now prior to even going on vacation, I had the car completely checked over and service done. Nevermind, that the warranty had just expired on it. But who thought that with actually taking care of your car, it would break down and as soon as weeks after the warranty is up. I looked online and saw that this issue has been an ongoing issue for thousands of other Ford Expeditions. I would like my money back and this to be recalled. I've attached all the paperwork. It is due to an inoperable throttle sensor where the throttle then fails to work. Please recall this issue and have them return my money.

This car is having very shacky starts in the past 2 months, the engine has lots of vibration. the car currently only has 67,000 miles.

Ford Expedition suddenly lost acceleration while driving. This results in the accelerator producing no power, essentially placing the vehicle into neutral. After turning vehicle on & off, it worked properly. Took it into auto repair place & was told this is a common problem and the THROTTLE MOTOR had to be replaced. After replacement, vehicle was towing a boat and the same thing happened and the check engine light came on. However, this time, after about 20 seconds, the vehicle shifted back into gear, the engine light turned off, and vehicle operated properly for the rest of the drive.

We have now twice on our vehicle had a throttle body issue where the car suddenly loses all power and the wrench warning light comes on. It is very scary when it happens and is a safety issue. If we stop the car and turn it off, it usually will let us restart and continue driving for a little bit, but the first time kept reoccurring. The first time was in 2021 and was repaired at a dealer while out of town, second time just happened today 4/15/2023.

I was driving on the freeway when a wrench light came on, the car slowed and then stopped. The engine was still running. I got off onto the shoulder but was worried that 80 MPH traffic would hit me. I turned the car off and called my husband. I started the car, the light was off. I drove to the nearest exit to get off the highway but still did not feel safe. The wrench light came on again, the car slowed then stopped. I did that one more time to get to a parking lot..same event with the light, etc. I called a tow truck and they towed the car to our mechanic. He ran diagnostics , cleaned the throttle body, and it's running fine. He said if it happened again they would have to replace the throttle body. Now we are worried this will happen again when we are on the highway.

We were on family trip and we were going up A hill and out of no where our expedition starting losing power and started to make A rattle noise and luckily we were able to pull off exit where the check engine light came on and almost turned off before we parked … just left me and my husband and my two kids stuck on the side of the road for three hours there was no warning no leaks no indications there was any problems with the vehicle we paid $275 to get it towed to the only place that was taking a vehicle on a Saturday they quoted us $16,000 that our motor was gone… So we called Ford … Pay $1200 to get it transported to the dealership where we paid $10,500 to have a whole new motor built they said it was a fluke accident they don’t have a real reason for it to happen our warranty just expired last year we had just had the oil change there before we left so there was no lack of maintenance done to the vehicle then I had to spend $550 to get a rental car to get family home … I have seen where they have recalls on the eco-boost motor for every other vehicle except for expedition my expedition is the eco-boost and Believe the issue stems from the eco-boost motor my vehicle was just barely out of powertrain warranty at 69,000 miles…. Also I have received two recalls now for the brake system which I have replaced rotors twice already which may been a part of the recall they’re just now sending us and the other recall is for the climate control front blower motor may overheat which I’m not sure if that could cause issues with our engine as well I would just like to have some help with my vehicle

The throttle body failed, causing the vehicle to go into limp mode while on a stretch of interstate hwy. The engine decelerated from 65 to below 5 mph immediately, causing cars and transfer trucks to have to swerve recklessly to avoid hitting me at full speed. My family was in this auto with me, which makes this even worse. From a quick search on the internet, this is a known problem and there hasn't been a recall. Will someone have to eventually die before Ford hales the problem? I now have my Expedition in the shop for repair and I'm on the hook for the cost to repair a known problem! FORD, be a responsible company and value your customer's safety!!

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND STARTED TO VIBRATE - THE WRENCH APPEARED IN THE DISPLAY. I WAS ABLE TO COAST INTO A PARKING LOT AND BRING IT TO A COMPLETE STOP. I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT AND IT SEEMED TO RUN OKAY. THE NEXT DAY I WAS DRIVING AGAIN AND THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND THE WRENCH CAME ON IN THE DISPLAY. I TURNED ON TO A SIDE STREET AND TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT - WHILE DRIVING HOME IT DID IT AGAIN AND THE WRENCH CAME ON AND THE CHECK ENGINE. HAD I BEEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN I LOST POWER IT COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS IF THERE WAS NOT AN EMERGENCY LANE OR OFF RAMP. I SEE OTHER FORD OWNER HAVE REPORTED THIS SIMILAR PROBLEM AND IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE CAUSED BY THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING IT AND WILL HAVE IT TOWED TO MY MECHANIC TO HAVE IT FIXED. AS THIS APPEARS TO BE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM SHOULD IT BE REPAIRED BY FORD?
