2003 Ford Expedition XLT 4.6
Summary:
Uses a lot of gas, but there is no safer ride out there
Faults:
When purchased the following things were repaired or replaced at no cost under original warranty: 1-side door lower plastic panel, they said it's a mfg defect and they fade right away. The new ones look great. 2-Both sides rear-view mirrors mechanism, they were vibrating too much. 3- rear ac (hard snapping/clicking sound when operating) they said it's a cheap plastic clip that needs to be replaced in All the units with a better one.
Now the car has no warranty and the airbag light flashes intermittently, then stops for a few days, then back on.
Passenger side front seat seems to be starting to break on the side.
General Comments:
Comfortable family ride. Handles better than the previous version.
Space behind the third seat is too small to be useful.
Ford is famous for having brake dust all over the rims, so It's of no concern.
It's good to have an SUV that the mechanics are not afraid of.
I love to be high on the road and see above all other cars while driving on the freeway.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'm sure it'll be safe when it flips taking a turn too fast.
