My 2002 ford expedition has always had transmission shifting problems. Over the years, it will sometimes not go out of 4x4 without some gentle coaxing.

I believe this is a solenoid body or harness…

Over a course of one year of purchasing vehicle, it has been in the shop 7 times for an engine/transmission issue, unsure as ford has not been able to identify the problem. When i contacted ford, they denied to buy the vehicle back due to the mileage on the vehicle. As of today, the vehicle has not been fixed although drivable, for how long until it gives out?*jb
