All Electronic Stability Control Esc Complaints
FUSE RELAYS KEEP BURNING OUT! I HAVE BROUGHT OVER 10 RELAYS IN 2 WEEEKS. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL 2003 FORDS AND IS VERY EXSPENSIVE TO FIX. I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED! THERE ARE VIDEOS ON YOU TUBE TO PROVE THAT ALL OF THESE TRUCKS HAVE THIS PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD I HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE FUSE BOX BUT EVENTUALLY I WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM OUT OF THAT FUSE BOX BECAUSE THUS IS A DEFECT IN ALL 2003 FORD EXPEDITIONS. THE CAR CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE IN 2 VERY DANGEROUS CAR ACCIDENTS! IT HAS STOPPED ON ME ON THE HIGHWAY AND STREET! WHEN I SAW THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL EMMISION RELAYS AND THE FUSE BOX I DECIDED TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT...
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE JUST SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND SHUT DOWN. I MANAGED TO GET THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT STARTED AND I CONTINUED ON, AFTER A FEW MILES THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN. I GOT IT STARTED AGAIN AND WAS TRYING TO MAKE A REST STOP A FEW MILES AWAY. WHILE PULLING INTO THE REST STOP THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AGAIN AND RESULTED IN A COLLISION BECAUSE OF NO STEERING OR BRAKES. THE LOSS OF POWER HAPPENED 8 TIMES THAT DAY. WHILE LOOKING FOR ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM, I FOUND ON THE NHTSB WEBSITE THAT OTHER VEHICLES OF THE SAME MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR ALSO EXPERIENCED THIS SAME PROBLEM THAT TURNED OUT TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE FUSE BLOCK. I TOOK IT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. THEY SAID IT...
MY PASSENGER WINDOW AND BOTH BACK WINDOWS HAVE DROPPED SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THIS FIXED MORE THAN ONCE ON THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW, WHAT HAPPENS IS ILL TRY TO PUT THE WINDOW UP AND THE WINDOW MOTOR MAKES A STRUGGLING NOISE AND I AM UNABLE TO ROLL UP THE WINDOW. AT THIS POINT I'M SURE IT MUST BE A DEFECT BECAUSE OF HOW IT HAS HAPPENED TO EACH WINDOW MORE THAN ONCE. ALSO THE BUMPER THAT GOES AROUND THE ENTIRE CAR IS EXTREMELY FADED AND I AM UNABLE TO GET FIXED I HAVE GONE TO GET ESTIMATES FOR A PAIN JOB BUT HAVE BEEN TOLD DUE TO THE MATERIAL IT IS JUST GOING TO FADE I WOULD NEED TO GET IT SANDED AND HAVE THEM DO SOME SPECIAL TREATMENT I CANT AFFORD AND THEY WILL NOT JUST PAINT OVER IT FOR ME BECAUSE THEY GUARANTEE THERE...
