NHTSA Complaint #11582607 — 2019 FORD EXPEDITION

In May 2023, our 2019 Expedition Max began experiencing intermittent stuttering at various speeds. Initially, we didn't consider it a major issue since the Check Engine light never illuminated. However, the problem worsened over time. Upon seeking advice, we took it to the dealer for inspection, only to be told a day later that they found no issues. We suspect the technician simply connected a diagnostic machine to the car's computer to check for faults. Despite our concerns, we ultimately had to replace the entire transmission, a process that dragged on for four months. My main concern is the car's apparent inability to detect serious engine problems. We originally purchased the vehicle to accommodate our large family, but now I'm deeply worried about their safety. This raises serious questions about the reliability and safety features of this model, prompting me to urge for a recall and replacement of faulty components.
