Filed Feb 28, 2025 · Acceleration · MD

2/13/19- Ford Issued Recall on 2013 Ford Expedition for OSS failure and downshift 2/20/19- I go to the Preston Ford Mazda dealership, Maryland. I view and test drive a 2013 Ford Expedition, during the test drive the RPMs ran high on the Expedition and it felt sluggish and “off” crossing a road, and at one point it jumped, and the wrench symbol came on as we were returning. My concern was shrugged off by my salesman, as he said ‘maybe Fords are just like that’. As we returned, and had the issue with the wrench symbol, salesman advised me “ well when you came and interrupted as they were just getting this thing checked out and tested.” 2/19/19 When I returned following days to purchase, the vehicle was not ready. It turned out the battery had died and they had some other issue with a “computer code”. They put in another battery on hand, and told me I should now be “good to go”, knowing that I was in desperate need of a vehicle, and would likely be trusting if they told me it was now repaired. At this point we were within manufacturer’s warranty, and under 60k miles. -was never informed that there was a recall issued by Ford that EXACTLY applied to our vehicle, and to the issue I Reported during my test drive, under warranty, and Preston Ford Mazda never correctly repaired the issue as they stated, which was reported within all Ford and recall time and mileage requirements. [XXX]-while driving suddenly speedometer went out, the gas gauge stopped working, and then, a moment later while trying to figure that out, the vehicle jumped and shuddered/stopped and the RPMS went wild, revving. Almost hit cars, but was able to pull to the side of highway. Upon turning the vehicle off and restarting, normal operation resumed, but issue with the wrench symbol, gauges, RPMs revving and vehicle jump/stop has now happened repeatedly, leaving me with no safe transportation for my large family.

I was driving on the highway at stepping on gas pedal to go to 65mph and the transmission downshifted to the first gear and went limp on the highway. I attempted to go to desire highway speed and it would not move and I was lucky to get off the highway and not get killed. No light turned on except the fuel gauge moved like crazy. On a different occasion my husband drove it on the highway again and it did it again, downshift to first hear in the middle of highway when he was going at 65 MPH. It was very scary because there was a lot of traffic and he nearly had an accident. Took to my mechanic and he did not find any codes or anything to figure out what happened. After discussing with my brother's mechanic, he said that the problem is the transmission and a sensor that is known to be faulty in ford expedition.

The truck slows down and the wrench comes on the dashboard and after that 3 dashes come up along with the statement "miles to e fuel level low" and the fuel is not low at all. In the book it states power train. This has been happening for about 3 months now.
