2006 Ford Expedition fuel system problems

Filed Jan 8, 2024 · Engine, Fuel system · CA

the service engine light continues to turn on. the timing belt continues to fail and has already been replaced once. the camshaft on both sides have been replaced. the solenoids have also been replaced and the diagnostics codes still pop up (p0022) (p0021) are just some that i can remember. the engine does not have enough power on the driver side and throws the timing belt off which causes the loud rattle coming from the engine. when reaching the speed of 40-45 mph the truck begins to shake. recently in november 2023, when fueling up with gas , the truck began to shake and not respond. when accelerating, the truck takes off very slowly and the gears dont kick in on time. when the gas light comes on , the truck begins to function well. but as soon as i put gas again. it feels like the truck is going to fall apart. the driver door gets stuck when trying to open from the inside. the back door on the left does not open from the outside. the gear handle can be moved up and down while the truck is not turned on. please help!!

While driving at 45 MPH on 2 lane road the truck acted as if it had run out of gas. I shifted into neutral and coasted to a parking lot at a store on the other side of the road. Thankfully there was not opposing traffic or I would have stopped in my lane and blocked traffic.

It takes forever to dribble gas into the tank at the filling station; the back pressure in the filler pipe cuts out the pump so bad it takes over 20 minutes to fill the large tank; this is unacceptable in bad weather and more than annoying on a tight schedule as it encourages speeding to make up for lost time!

As I was slowing down and made a right turn into a parking space, the vehicle accelerated on its own, running over the concrete stop and the curve. The car continued to accelerate and ran head on into a tree that was approximately 10 feet away from the parking space. The driver airbag did not deploy. My car was totaled as a result of this accident.

Engine went in to fail safe mode and stalled while coasting to pull off. Put in neutral shut off key and then restarted. No more problem..until a year later. Fail safe then stall. Restarted and check engine light on. After 10 miles fail safe and stall. Restarted check engine light on took to dealer. Diagnosed as throttle body $650 repair. Obviously; I am not the first victim! Shame on you ford for not stepping up and taking care of your customers and replacing the throttle bodies. To consumers..fail safe doesn't mean safe to keep driving, it is designed to keep the engine running just long enough to maintain power steering and brakes while you pull over. Good luck!
