NHTSA Complaint #10576581 — 2005 FORD EXPEDITION

I HAVE TALKED TO A FEW OTHER OWNERS OF FORD EXPEDITIONS (LATER MODELS 2004-2008) AND THERE IS A DEFINITE ISSUE WITH RUST AND OTHER COMPONENTS RUSTING OUT. IT SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH RUST ESP WHEN THE BRAKE LINES ARE BASICALLY ALL RUSTED OUT IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. ALSO THE CROSS MEMBER FRAME UNDERNEATH HAS A LOT MORE THAN ACCEPTABLE AMOUNT OF RUST, NEVER SEEN THIS MUCH EVEN WITH A TRUCK I HAVE NOW A 1997 DODGE WITH 190,000 MILES DOESN'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO THE RUST I SEE WITH THE FORD. RUST BUBBLES ON THE REAR LIFT GATE HANDLE AREA AND JUST ABOUT ALL AROUND THE WINDOW AREAS AND THE HOOD. MIND YOU THAT THE TIME WE'VE HAD THE VEHICLE ONLY MAYBE A HANDFUL OF TIMES IT WAS OUT IN SNOW OR EVEN RAINY WEATHER - LOW MILES FOR THE YEAR 67,000/8 YEARS+. THE LINES AND RUST REPAIR WILL COST MONEY $$ TO FIX I BELIEVE THAT FORD KNOWS THERE'S AN ISSUE AND STIFFS THE CONSUMER KNOWING THAT THE MATERIALS RUST OUT CAUSING A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE. ANYBODY FOR A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT HERE? *TR
