I have a 2005 ford expedition limited. My complaint is the throttle body failure. When driving down the road, the engine will shut down and you loose all power to the vehicle. I have had this happen at speeds of 55+ mph as well as speeds of approx less than 10 mph, such as while in a parking lot. This problem started in the summer of 2009, and has happened every month since, sometimes several times during the month.…

2005 ford expedition will die while driving and a wrench light appears on the dash. This has happened more than 5 times in the last month. The dealer has stated that there are thousands of these occurrences with the throttle body needing to be replaced at an $800 owners expense. The expedition is not the only model having this problem. *tr

I was driving 60mph down the highway and the dash lit up with "check electronic fuel control." i was able to get the vehicle to the side of the road as the engine turned itself off, no power steering, and limited braking ability. After a few minutes it restarted and i was able to limp it back home and i plan on taking into the local ford dealership in the morning. *tr

I bought my 2005 ford expedition in march 2007 with 21k miles on it. I have had to replace 2 different injectors in 16 months because the vehicle will start cutting back and acting like it wants to cut off when it stops at a light . The most recent replacement came when i drove it 5 miles from home and it jerked continuously the entire inside of the vehicle smelled like gas very strongly as well as the exhaust. The…

Our 2005 ford expedition eddie bauer was driving extremely rough, was difficult to start, and there was also a strong smell of fuel in the cabin. We were able to make it to the nearest local ford dealership. They inspected the vehicle and informed us that two of our fuel injectors had gone bad, which had also damaged two spark plugs. Apparently they froze open and allowed too much fuel into the system. Since ford is…

It takes 20 minutes to fill up my gas tank. Ford put some time of restriction or rerouted the fumes at the gas cap. I have to actually hold the nozzle back and inch from the opening and shoot the gas at the tank. This is a very dangerous situation and i am sure much more dangerous than the original problem the engineers were trying to correct (due to a lawsuit). Now ford is saying that they will need to put the car…
