NHTSA Complaint #11468082 — 2019 FORD EXPEDITION

This vehicle has only 10300 miles and never driven off road and the struts have failed. An independent garage confirmed the drivers side front strut is leaking and both rear. My Ford dealer stated they would replace the front and one rear under warranty but the second rear strut is leaking within Ford's "tolerances". This is just Ford's way of avoiding a warranty claim and hoping the bad leaking doesn't start until after the customer's warranty expires so they can reap thousands of dollars in repair revenue. I was also told by the Ford dealership that the FoMoCo replacement struts often arrive at the dealership leaking and they would not call me in for an appointment to replace until they have confirmed they received replacement struts that are not defective. My research shows this is a common problem with this vehicle and the NHTSA should investigate and force a recall since failed struts can cause a serious accident.
