Here are the most widely reported Ford Expedition issues for different model years:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Electrical Issues<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Included in the list of the 2016 Ford Expedition&rsquo;s common problems are electrical problems concerning the model&rsquo;s remote start feature. Other complaints involve burnt wiring, malfunctioning heated seats, power liftgate problems, and touchscreen display issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blower Motor Only Works on High<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Several 2007-2016 Ford Expedition models equipped with manual temperature and fan controls may experience <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blower-motor\/ford\/expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"blower motor\">blower motor<\/a> problems. The blower motor on the affected units may only work on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/what-is-a-car-blower-motor-purpose-symptoms-and-more\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"certain settings\">certain settings<\/a> (commonly on the highest setting).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In most cases, a faulty <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blower-motor-resistor\/ford\/expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"blower motor resistor\">blower motor resistor<\/a> is the culprit behind this issue. Replacing the resistor is a common fix for this problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spark Plug Ejection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A common complaint among many owners of 2003 Ford Explorer involves the vehicle&rsquo;s spark plugs. According to reports, the V8 engine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/spark-plug\/ford\/expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"spark plug\/s\">spark plug\/s<\/a> on the affected units may eject from the cylinder head after an average of 133,300 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"2003 Ford Expedition Spark Plug Replacement Made Simple!\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9qDcK2haOoo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Drivers report hearing loud popping noises from under the hood, prompting them to stop their vehicle and inspect their engine. Upon inspection, owners found that one of their Expedition&rsquo;s spark plugs was disconnected from the head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to RepairPal, this problem also affects many units belonging to the 1997-2007 model years. Ford has issued several TSBs for this problem.&nbsp; According to reports, the threads on these vehicles&rsquo; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/cylinder-head\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"cylinder heads\">cylinder heads<\/a> are the cause of the problem because they were too short or soft to handle the pressure from engine combustion. The cylinder head of the affected models must be repaired to solve this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ignition Coil Failure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Still related to spark plugs, several Ford Expedition vehicles from different model years have to deal with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/ignition-coil\/ford\/expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"ignition coil\">ignition coil<\/a> failure due to excessive spark plug gap. This issue affects some units from the 1997-2011 model years. The check engine light typically illuminates once the engine detects an issue with your ignition coils. Repairs may include replacing the bad ignition coil\/s, spark plugs, and coil boots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Air Suspension Failure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The list of 2000 Ford Expedition common problems includes issues with the vehicle&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/air-suspension-kit\/ford\/expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"air suspension\">air suspension<\/a>. Although there were only a few complaints for this model year, it is worth noting that air suspension repairs can cost up to $1,500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"article-search-widget\">\n<div class=\"cp-search\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cld.partsimg.com\/image\/upload\/w_auto,dpr_auto\/carparts\/logos\/badge_wordmark\/full_color\/CP_LOGO_COLOUR_RGB\" alt=\"CarParts.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"56\">\n<\/div>\n<form id=\"cpsearchform\" name=\"cpsearchform\" action=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/search\" method=\"get\" target=\"_blank\" accept-charset=\"character_set\" aria-label=\"search CarParts.com\">\n    <input type=\"text\" class=\"keyword\" name=\"q\" placeholder=\"Search for parts on CarParts.com\" value=\"\" aria-label=\"Search CarParts.com\"><input type=\"submit\" class=\"btn-search\" value=\"Search\" aria-label=\"Search\">\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>One owner reports hearing air rushing from the canister as the back end of their Expedition started to drop. Others say their vehicles felt bumpy and uncontrollable after the same incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Owners of affected units may need to replace faulty suspension components to solve the issue. Some experts suggest converting the air suspension to a regular one using conversion kits. Make sure to consult your trusted mechanic before attempting any repairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EGR Sensor Issues<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some 1997-2007, 2012, and 2017 Ford Expedition units suffer from rough idling caused by a sticking engine gas recirculation (EGR) sensor. When this happens, your EGR valve may remain partially open and affect your ride&rsquo;s fuel economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this symptom is accompanied by an illuminated check engine light, it&rsquo;s best to go to a nearby auto repair shop for proper inspection. Both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/egr-pressure-feedback-sensor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"EGR sensor\">EGR sensor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/egr-valve\/ford\/expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"valve\">valve<\/a> may need to be replaced to solve the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cracked PCV Hose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"2001 Ford Expedition in Silver Clearcoat Metallic\" class=\"wp-image-42228\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-928x696.jpg 928w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2001-Ford-Expedition-in-Silver-Clearcoat-Metallic.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption>Several Ford Expedition units from 1997-2004 are affected have an issue with the PCV hose.
