Ford Expedition 2004Change

Excellent in all matters except paint corrosion in a couple of spots. Exceeded all needs and pleasures a family could ever expect from a vehicle.

As Kirk B. said in his review......you learn to expect the upcoming breakdowns, and they are expensive to fix. Same problems over and over again........electrical, heater / air not working 5 times in 8 years. Blew two spark plugs out of the 5.4 engine due to poor design, and not enough "meat" or metal to contain the compression, so the plug blew out and you run on 7 lazy, noisy cylinders. Back up sensors broken down 3 times and don't work now. Cruise control and radio and heater setting on steering wheel don,t work at all. Several hundred to fix.
Despite all the negative things, I do like to drive the Expedition, but constant break downs regularly.
I will talk to owners of newer Expeditions 2012 or newer to see if they have similar problems. Only if I hear 100% satisfaction, would I consider another one.
Realistically the Infiniti Q56 has the luxury, power, comfort, and goood reputation to get the job done as well or better than the Ford.

i have 160,000kms on our Expedition and it has never let us down. the kids love the car so much its nicknamed ( The Cool Car) Living up north we have alot of winter and i have never driven a vehicle that gets around as good as my Expedition. With 4 good studded snow tires my wife can go anywhere with the kids and feel safe.
the only negative is the fuel mileage but i still Love to drive our Expedition.

This vehicle has been great to me! Very few mechanical problems, nice interior styling, decent exterior.

A few problems -- Very poor fuel efficiency, bland exterior styling and only mediocre power from the huge V8.

Overall, a pretty good vehicle.
