2006 FORD EXPEDITION Engine And Engine Cooling Problems

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. ENGINE FAIL-SAFE LIGHT IS DISPLAYED. WAS BARELY ABLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE AREA. RESTARTED ENGINE, EVERYTHING CAME BACK UP AGAIN. *TR

MY TRUCK WENT INTO FAIL SAFE MODE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS CAUSED THE TRUCK TO STOP SUDDENLY WITH NO USE OF GAS PEDAL BUT THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. THIS ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT OVER AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART IT AND IT RAN FINE THE REST OF THE DAY. NOW I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. *TR

MY TRUCK WENT INTO FAIL SAFE MODE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS CAUSES THE TRUCK TO STOP SUDDENLY WITH NO POWER TO ACCELERATE BUT THE ENGINE STILL RUNS. THIS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST BE CRUSHED BY A TRACTOR TRAILER BEHIND ME. I HAD SEVERAL CHILDREN IN THE CAR TOO!! *TR

AUGUST 21 ON THE WAY TO WORK (4 MILE DRIVE) THE TRUCK STARTED TO SHAKE AND LOST POWER,CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, WE TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER,AND THEY CAN NOT FIGURE WHAT IS GOING ON,SO THEY SAID THE ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE CODES ARE P0022-P0305-P0307-P1184-P2198-P2273 MY FAMILY JUST CAME BACK FROM A 3000 TRIP ,I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HAVING THIS HAPPENING TO US DURING THIS TIME. I BEEN LOOKING FOR THE SAME TYPE OF TROUBLE TO THIS TRUCKS AND FOUND THAT THERE IS A NUMBER OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT HAVING TO REPLACE ENGINES RANGING FROM 38,000 MILES TO ABOUT 60,000MILES. THE PRICE OF THIS CARS ARE WELL OVER $35,000 TO HAVING TO SPEND ANOTHER $7,000 WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS OF OUR ECONOMY RIGHT NOW A NORMAL PERSON LIKE ME CAN NOT AFFORD ANOTHER RIP OFF BY ONE OF THE BIG COMPANIES,LIKE FORD. ALL I'M ASKING IS...

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 FORD EXPEDITION. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 25-55 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND SHAKE VIOLENTLY, THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, AND SMOKE APPEARED FROM THE TAIL PIPE. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE DRIVEN GREATER THAN 60 MPH. THE HIGHER THE SPEED, THE MORE THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE AND VIBRATE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED EVERYTIME THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN. THE DEALER HAS HAD THE VEHICLE SINCE JUNE 24, 2008, BUT THEY STILL CANNOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE UNAVAILABLE. UPDATED 09/29/08.*LJ THE DEALER REPLACED THE CONVERTER. UPDATED 09/29/08. *JB

MY 2006 FORD EXPEDITION SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN FOR THE THIRD TIME NOW WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD. THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN SUDDENLY AND GIVES OUT THE ENGINE FAIL SAFE MODE MESSAGE ON THE BOARD. DEALER SAYS NOTHING SHOWING UP ON THE DIAGNOSTICS. HOW COULD THAT BE. THERE'S GOT TO BE A REASON WHY THAT SUV SUDDENLY SHUT ITS ENGINE DOWN. ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN IF THIS WILL NOT BE RESOLVED. *TR

2006 FORD EXPEDITION HAS SAFETY ISSUES WITH ENGINE. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE ENGINE GAGS OR SHAKES UPON IGNITION. CONSUMER IS MOSTLY WORRIED ABOUT THE WOBBLING WHEN MAKING TURNS. CLAIMS THERE IS LOSS OF POWER. *KB THE REAR LATCH WOULD STICK AT TIMES TO THE POINT WHERE THE DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE. *JB

2006 FORD EXPEDITION THAT CUTS OUT WHILE DRIVING, STARTED AT APPROX 18K AND HAS BEEN TO SAME FORD DEALER 5 TIMES. PROBLEM HAS NOT RECURRED SINCE LAST VISIT TO DEALER BUT COULD COME BACK AND IS SERIOUS SAFETY FACTOR AS A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER WITHOUT WARNING. LAST REPAIR NOTED A ADJUSTMENT OR REPAIR TO THROTTLEBODY. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2006 FORD EXPEDITION IN APRIL OF '06, BEGINNING IN NOVEMBER OF '06 MY ENGINE BEGAN STALLING. THE CONSEQUENCES INCLUDED LOSS OF BRAKING POWER, FREEZING OF STEERING, VEHICLE SLOWING WITH NO CONTROL. I BROUGHT THIS TO MY DEALERS ATTENTION ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS AS THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT 2007. I AM VERY CONCERNED OF THE POTENTIAL FOR ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES. *TR

LOUD GRINDING NOISE ON INITIAL START UP ON 2006 FORD EXPEDITION, FORD MOTOR CLAIMS IT IS FROM A/C COMPRESSOR, YET, CANNOT GIVE ME A WRITTEN GUARANTEE THAT THE VEHICLE WILL NOT CATCH ON FIRE, BLOW UP OR STALL. VEHICLE SITTING ON DEALER LOT BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. *JB

1. FREQUENT HORRIBLE GRINDING NOISE ON COLD START-UP. 2. LOUD CLUNKING NOISE AND FEEL VEHICLE SHUDDER IN REVERSE UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. *JB
