Ford Expedition 5.4L V8 shudders and stalls at low RPM in drive and in reverse. This truck only has 49,000 miles and it is likely to be a failed torque converter or transmission which can cost over $2,000 to repair. It drives mostly normal when od is disabled, but the issue does not go away.

My wife and I own a 2003 Ford Expedition XLT 4WD since 2004. Every since we owned this vehicle we have had problems from the rear lsd being replaces twice, the electrical harness replacement, all power locks replaced (due to coming open by themselves), and recently the two coil packs blowing out of the motor. We spent over a thousand dollars to get vehicle to pass smog due to outrageous spark plug prices along with labor cost of $400. I am fed up with Ford and want everyone to know how their quality is so sub-standard. This vehicle has been in the shop around 6-7 times and I have to worry every time I drive it. Please issue a recall on the spark plug issue as Ford agrees it is a defect, they will not take responsibility for their shabby work- [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
