2010 FORD EXPEDITION Engine Problems

FIRST INCIDENT IN MARCH 2019 FROM PARKED POSITION, PUT CAR IN DRIVE AND IT "RACED" OUT OF CONTROL, TRIED TO BRAKE AND FINALLY STOPPED THE CAR JUST SHORT OF JUMPING CURB ACROSS THE STREET. IN MAY 2019 WAS LEAVING A PARKING AREA AND CAR REPEATED SAME THING. TOOK LONGER TO STOP, BUT HAD THERE BEEN ANOTHER CAR OR PEDESTRIAN IN FRONT OF ME, COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS. WITHIN THE LAST WEEK, (JUNE 15), IF CAR IS IDLING EITHER AT LIGHT OR IN PARK, ENGINE WILL START RACING. TURN OFF CAR AND RESTART, IT WILL START AGAIN, BUT WITHOUT MY TOUCHING ACCELERATOR, WHEN CAR IS IN DRIVE WILL "CRUISE " AT 25 MPH. CAN EITHER BE STATIONERY IN PARK OR SITTING AT LIGHT WHEN CAR IN DRIVE. AM GETTING AFRAID TO DRIVE. HAVE ONLY HAD CAR SINCE MARCH 12, 2019 AND LAST INCIDENT WAS YESTERDAY JUNE 25, 2019.

FORD VEHICLE SHUTS OFF SPORADICALLY WITH MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS WHILE DRIVING AND STATIONARY. THE BRAKES ALSO SEIZE UP TO THE POINT WHERE THEY OVER HEAT AND COULD CATCH FIRE. THE MOST RECENT EVENT HAPPENED MAY 15TH AFTER PICKING THE CAR UP FROM MY LOCAL REPAIR SHOP TO TRY AND REPAIR WHAT FORD DEALERSHIPS HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO REPAIR. IT SHUT OFF ON THE WAY HOME. MAY 16TH THE BRAKES LOCKED UP. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A OVER A YEAR. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS AND WAS RECENTLY AT AUTO NATION FORD IN UNION CITY GA FOR OVER A MONTH AWAITING A PART THAT NEVER SHOWED UP. I PICKED THE VEHICLE UP AND TOOK IT TO ANOTHER LOCAL SHOP THAT WAS ABLE TO SECURE THE PART AND REPLACE IT, BUT THAT STILL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SO FAR, I'VE SPENT UPWARDS OF $8000...

EXPEDITION SHUT OFF RANDOMLY, TOOK TO DEALER TOLD WAS FINE AND 2 DAYS LATER WHILE MY WIFE AND 3 KIDS WERE DRIVING. ENGINE FAILED WHILE DRIVING. NO LIGHTS ON DASH OR WARNING. LOST CONTROL OF VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING AT 30 MILES AND HOUR. NEEDS NEW ENGINE. FORD IS COMPLETELY BLOWING THIS ISSUE OFF. MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.

I WAS ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM AN IDLE POSITION TO ENTER A HIGHWAY. IN THE PROCESS OF ACCELERATION, MY ENGINE BEGAN TO KICK AND STUTTER LIKE IT WAS NOT TAKING IN ENOUGH GAS. I HAVE REPORTED THIS MATTER TO MY FORD DEALERSHIP WITHOUT A SATISFACTORY ANSWER. A COLLEAGUE OF MINE WHO OWNS THE EXACT SAME STYLE, MODEL AND YEAR VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME EXACT ACTIONS AND ALSO VISITED THE SAME FORD DEALERSHIP (WORLD FORD) AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE KICKING OR BUCKING OF THE ENGINE WAS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE TORQUE CONVERTER THAT FORD IS UNWILLING TO REPLACE (A $2000 JOB). THE DEALERSHIP HAS PLACED FLUID IN THE ENGINE WITHOUT ANY RESOLUTION. THIS IS MY 3RD EXPEDITION. WHILE I AM HAPPY WITH FORD, THERE IS CLEARLY A DEFECT (DUE TO SIMILAR ACTIONS IN ITS OTHER MODELS). THEY CHOSE TO IGNORE THE PROBLEM. I NEED A RESOLVE IMMEDIATELY. *TR
