-the contact owns a 2004 Ford Expedition. The contact stated that whenever she turned the rear air conditioning unit on, she could hear a loud banging noise from the rear of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealership where the contact was informed this was a known failure. The contact also mentioned she experienced the same failure a few years ago and the vehicle had the rear blend door actuator replaced at an authorized dealership. The failure and current mileages were approximately 134,000. Updated 10/20/10 updated 10/22/10
Rear A/C actuator suddenly failed with no warning. ABS light came on and dealership said that an animal chewed through the wires to the ABS computer, which was odd because I live in the city of los angeles where this was unheard off. Cost me $688 and the ABS light remained on. I don't even have proof that they did anything. Transmission stopped shifting into overdrive. Dealership said that the ABS computer needs to be replaced. Cost me $450. ABS light went off, but transmission still doesn't shift into overdrive. Dealership now says that my overdrive band is worn. They quoted me $3,300 to fix. I have also had 3 break jobs which cost $600 a piece performed in less than 3 years. Which I never had this problem with any vehicle I' ever owned. This truck is only 3 years old and has had a tremendous amount of expensive problems.
