My wife has a 2019 explorer with an eco boost. Only issue so far is water getting into the rear hatch. Like sloshing around in the door. Took out the drain plugs, but have yet to figure how it's getting in. Dealer won't cover it.
Now steering wheels are starting to come off Tesla cars. You’re cruising down the freeway at 80 mph, and suddenly you notice the steering wheel you’re holding is no longer connected to the car 😱
engineers COULD design a perfectly good car, the government enacts new regulations that FORCE manufacturers to make cars more complex and full of crap nobody wants. Usually for "safety" or the "environment"
Some of the problem is bureaucrats got into telling auto manufacturers what to do. From about Nixon on, the industry has been hammerlocked - gas crunch was the final straw, and Carter cemented it all in place. Anything 73 or earlier is fine by me.
My Edge became a money pit after 100000kms. It's very well taken care of too. The wastegate started rattling and throwing low boost codes since near new. 2.0 ecoboost.
I live in Poland and have a Turkish built, Ford Tourneo Courier, a European car, 1000cc three cylinder turbo petrol, or gas engine, six speed manual, or stick shift, and its build quality is absolutely brilliant, well finished, good interior trim, reliable, good gas mileage and very practical.
Transit Connect here in the US. My Father has had 2 of them, a 2013 and a 2014. In my opinion they are low quality garbage too. Very flimsy, junky components. Seems like a Kid's Toy more than a work van.
My wife and I just purchased a Mazda cx-30 for her to daily. It’s everything a small vehicle should be. Traditional 6 speed automatic transmission, no turbo, fewer bells and whistles, decent on gas, and handles like a go-kart.
I just miss having full size suvs based on trucks being reliable, the standard used to be it ought to take you 200k miles before you have any major issues where as now it's pretty much if you make it to 80k without the engine and tranny going out on you than count your blessings, its all a shame really.
I have a bunch of old fords. My most reliable is a 1996 F350 long wheel base crew cab with a 7.3. It has 365k and still runs like a champ. My newest vehicle is a 2010 it runs pretty good . I refuse to buy anything newer. I live in a no rust area of the country so my 3 1994 f150's all run great and the kids use them everyday.
The Q1 Project of the mid-1980s was a response to declining quality...the First Gen Taurus was intended as a demonstration (both within the company and to the car-buying public) that they were changing their ways. The Big Three have been chasing the Japanese carmakers for 50 years now, and still haven't really figured it out.
I've been a Ford guy all my life but after my most recent, and learning that all of their vehicles are made the same (if not worse), I'll never own another. I liked owning an American made vehicle that didn't cost an arm and a leg to maintain/repair, but those days are long gone. My next vehicle will likely be a Honda.
@@Belizeanbanman my uncle had a Honda Accord and the transmission went out, he recently went to a Toyota Camry SE and he’s relatively happier with the Camry.
Unfortunately, Scotty is right all this technology has made cars too complicated. Once that truck passes 80000 miles it will become a money pit. Then it will become too expensive to repair.
I haven’t had a single computerized component fail. The only thing electronic that failed was the automatic door step which was replaced early on and no issues since. I’ve never even had a check engine light because I had all the recommended maintenance done on time. The truck still looks brand new outside and inside, and still drives like new. Even the drivers seat looks like it has less than 50k miles. It makes a huge difference when you take care of and maintain your vehicle. Preventive maintenance is the key. My 2020 kia sportage is also freshly mint and has 80k miles and looks brand new without a scratch with 0 issues because I have maintenance done on time. That vehicle has also never had a check engine light . I serviced its transmission every 20k miles to be safe. You have to pay to play sometimes, and its well worth it.
Car companies want to go back in time when a car lasted about 100,000 miles Good long lasting, low maintenance cars were made from 1980 till 1996 ( with a little give and take according on who made em) It is sad that cars can be made to last a hell of a lot longer now but the car manufacturers decided that new car sales make more money
I had a 94 Celica. Great little car honestly. Sold it to my brother. It had over 500.000 miles on it. When the body was just shot. More Bondo and sheet metal. Then there was original body panels. They rust away from the power train.
New Toyota v6 twin turbo has more problems than ford. My 2019 f150 come this v8 10 speed . Apply car play. Vs 2021 lx570. V8. 8 speed . No apply car play. $33000 vs $100000.
Having a 2014 Expedition with the V8, I can say that it has been a very reliable and trouble-free vehicle so far. Very basic too, compared to the oversized iPad on wheels in this video.
That’s just a lemon he’s got I have 2 20 and 9 year old expeditions. Neither of which have any problems. The 15 is fully loaded with tech too and no issues. find what works best for you. Not other people.
Make up ur mind Scotty @0:49 you say “it’s not like this thing is made in Mexico, it was made in the USA!” You always claim everything in Mexico is crap and the US builds superior quality yet this ford is full of issues?
I'm just gonna stick to my 2004 Chevy Silverado short bed with 200000 miles on it still runs great. Anyhow I don't like all this new electronic junk they can have it. I don't even have power windows.
Worst years for Ford 😂 that's great that ur truck has lasted you that long but those 5.4 triton motors plus the electronics and transmissions were garbage I'd say 2000 to 2008 was a bad time to own a Ford
Has the owner ever heard of the Lemon Law? I used it once on a Ford Aerostar that would just stop in the middle of the highway for no reason. They took it back and paid me the purchase price back. I would suggest that the owner gives it a shot. Only works for new cars.
After he gets done with having to pay a lawyer and going through litigation he will have paid for his Expedition 2 times over. Ford doesn't care, they have attorneys on retainer making the same amount of money regardless.
@Deus Vult That's not how it works. If the manufacturer denies the claim after you have submitted it in writing to the dealer, an attorney will take the case on consignment..... The manufacturer would be responsible for attorney fees if the plaintiff wins The lemon law claim is black and white...the vehicle either qualifies or it doesn't.
Oh man! I just rented one in January for a ski trip, it was a '22 4WD Expedition Max. About 2 hours into the drive on the highway when trying to pass someone the transmission would SLAM down a gear and I would lose all power. After a few times the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and the Pre Collision Assist warning came on and the car went into limp mode! What a piece of JUNK! Take it up to 65mph and then mash the gas and see what happens when it downshifts.
I’ve owned 2 expeditions, Both of which I still drive. My 2003 Eddie Bauer has 270k miles and counting. My 2015 which I bought last year with 81.5k miles now has 109k miles 0 issues with either vehicle. I’m sticking with these until they straighten this quality thing out!
@@G_Wagon44 rear climate control, leather package, dvd player, heated/ventilated seats, foot adjusting pedals, 6 cd player, sunroof. And this is all back in 2003. The ventilated seats was a steal back in the day that’s why we bought it over a Toyota or any car for that matter.
I own a '98, a '04, and an '05 expeditions. The '05 has 320,000 and the '04 has 340,000 miles. Both run like new and everything works properly. Maintenance is everything and ALWAYS use Motorcraft parts. All those aftermarket & 'high performance' parts are garbage and cause problems. 👍
I work at a Ford dealership for 2 years. In the small strand of those years, our shop has so many lemons, and we've had so many cars fubar from factory. I'm getting out. Cant sell the product anymore with blind faith.
I heard Ford keeps pushing vehicles out of the assembly even if they see an issue and let the dealers deal with it, unlike Toyota which stops the entire assembly line to fix a problem.
I agree. My 2000 Crown Vic LX w/ a 4.6 liter V8 (289) still gets up & goes w/ 110,000 on the clock. For an extra added low end kick, l removed the air silencer and cut out the bottom of the stock air box, reinstalled the box & put a K&N airfilter in it. I call it a *"POOR MANS COLD AIR INDUCTION KIT"* cuz it only cost me my time and the cost of the new filter & filter cleaning kit, less than $100. A brand new cold air induction kit for my car pushes the $400 mark.😲😲😲
@@thealgorithmisbrokenyeah my dad bought a ford f150 in 2015 and after 40k miles the whole engine went out. I will never trust them. Especially when my used toyota Camry with 274k miles still runs without any major issues ever
My father drove a ‘63 Chevy Impala when I was a kid . It had crank windows. I once asked if he wouldn’t like a car with power windows. He replied: “Just another thing to go wrong.” Judging by today’s cars, he was AHEAD of his time!
The 2021 F-150's had all kinds of chip issues! My 2021 F-150 was replaced by Ford with a 2022 F-150 under Michigan Lemon Law. I only had 300 miles on it and I couldn't safely drive it or tow my boat because of constant electrical fault messages and the turn signals not working right. The Ford dealer tore out the dash twice and replaced the APIM Module 2X, but nothing would fix my problems. A Ford engineer neighbor told me to get out of my lease as quick as possible due to all the defects. On a good note, FoMoCo replaced the truck with a 2022 F-150 XLT with all the same options and it is GREAT. No issues at all and everything works fine. They also reloaded all my lease miles and said I could buy the truck at the end of the lease at the 2021 price, if interested. That means I could get a $63,247 truck for $43,000. I plan on buying it!
The only motor to buy in a Ford is the 5.0L V8. It has all the power you need and it gets deceit gas mileage. They ruined the Explorer with their Eco Boost motors only. There was nothing wrong with their 3.5 V6 in it.
We rented a 2022 expedition king ranch. That twin turbo v6 is a rocketship for a huge vehicle. We loved it but didn't have to live with it. Drove it hard and returned it.
Drove one of the Ford bronco sports with the tiny 1.5L engine and 8 speed transmission as a rental. That thing SUCKED driving in town. Never knew what gear it wanted to be in. Shifting back and forth constantly. I can only imagine that severely over boosted engine won't last and the transmission is probably screwed. It is doing 10x the shifts of a normal vehicle with in town driving.
That's funny you say that. I drove my bosses wife's Bronco sport and I thought the same thing. It was constantly hunting gears. It refused to downshift properly going up hills too. I've owned Ford's with sticky electronic shift solenoids and that's what this thing was like. Pretty bad considering it was only 2 years old tops.
As the owner of both a 2018 Explorer and a 2021 Edge I can attest that Ford builds junk. When you pay assemblers $18.00 an hour this is what you get. I’m a Union guy and my next vehicle more than likely will be a Toyota.
Maybe. You should have a handle on it in 2 or 3 years. Last time I peeked at replacing my old tacoma was [I think] around 2012 give or take. I was unimpressed by the screen, the console, and interior in general - it made me want to leave and not come back. If I was given one... I might entertain redoing the dash etc. Admittedly, I like tactile things that don't take my eyes off the road: levers for a/c, volume knobs for radio, etc. I'm not at 15,000 feet when driving, where a nice comfy cushion of 10-15 seconds of 'eyes off' time doesn't miss much [outside of being near airport approach patterns].
I totally agree with him the problem is all the manufacturers are making that kind of crap nowadays. Even Toyota went to TwinTurbo V6. That’s why I kept my V-8 Toyota. Not the best gas mileage but runs like a top. But that thing doesn’t give you any gas mileage either.
Quality is going down for just about all brands at the same time when prices are going up, makes no sense. No wonder used car prices keep going up and they will continue to do so.
It seems to me that their CEO is kind of a dopey dolt... I like buying American but I'm afraid I'm done with Ford, it's really s shame. Fortunately I bought my F150 in 2016 before the quality chaos began.
I only buy 1 owner dealer maintained cars or trucks, nothing newer than 02. Even if its a model or color I dont like, havent gone wrong yet. That gen still believed in preventative maintenance.
We were all told that all of this🐂💩 electronics was added to these vehicles to in order to save us repairs because sensors are supposed to let us know to make minor repairs before major repairs are necessary. But yet, we end up constantly replacing sensors and or the sensors are causing other systems problems 🤦♂️. Good for the dealerships I guess. Next, we were told that the electronics will make the vehicles more fuel efficient, and it would, except for the fact that all of the extra added 🐂💩 emissions tech negates the fuel efficiency it would have had, in order to have less CO2 emitted🤦♂️. My 92 6.2 litre deisel Single cab Sierra still gets 25 mpg and very few emissions. These new Sierras still can barely get that kind of mileage. What a crock of 💩 these companies and government officials are feeding us.
I'm an unhappy owner of a 21 F-150 Powerboost. Between all the issues I've had, the awful service experience, and the recalls, I will never buy another Ford vehicle. Great video.
I have a 2022 Ford Bronco Sport and the heater went out with 42000 and now they don't wanna replace it for free because it's over warranty. Complete GARBAGE FORD IS
The key and the lock wear together. If one key gets used all the time it is possible that the spare won't work at all. Swap them out from time to time so that everything wears together. Fortunately there are now aftermarket ignition lacks which can be programmed to your existing key so you don't have to mess with paying someone to program them. There are procedures for programming keys yourself for many vehicles. Just search for your vehicle. As a backup, know your key code.
I drive a 2020 Ford F450 turbo diesel as my work truck. Transmission was crap from the start. Then there was a recall. Still crap. Took it back under warranty. Then back a third time. Then Ford finally put in a new transmission.
Our 2020 f550 work truck also has transmission problems. It's also on it's 3rd engine oil pan which is currently leaking. All fixed previously by the local Ford dealer. Screw the new Ford's.
Ford was the best American brand for a long time, but seems they are on the downtrend. Why everyone hasn't switched to Japanese vehicle by now blows my mind. They have only been putting out a much superior product for oh, what, the last 50 years!
Yeah, I had a ‘94 Ford Ranger put tons of miles on it with no problems....4 cylinder 5 speed stick. That was before all this computerized crap started showing up in cars! Now they have what they call connected wifi crap that you don’t need and can’t fix by yourself.
Timing chain water pumps shattering and shooting through the engine. Transmissions failing at 80k miles no abuse. I have no choice for a while with my 2018 escape but after this I can’t do it anymore
I mean it has 50000 miles it might not be and I see this sometimes what can happen Is if you hut the front bumper with a pole u can crack that module and the systems can act up
Sometimes someone gets unlucky and gets a bad one. My family has 6 ford's and 3 of them have over 200k miles with zero problems. I know some people who have had bad experiences and some that have had good ones.
@@Patriot-pq1kuour new f250 is on it's 3rd oil pan due to non stop leaking. 6.7 diesel. Also about once a month when I go to start it the starter makes a grinding sound. This thing slso eats front tires like crazy. I'm going Toyota next.
I have a 2018 Explorer with no issues, but I mostly drive a 1999 Mercury Grand Marquis and 1996 Ford F250 and I enjoy the older ones more then the new one.
I've been a diehard Ford guy my whole life but I'd never buy a new Ford. Everyone I know has issues with their new Ford's. Their build quality has gone downhill hard the last 20-25 years. I needed a new truck so I bought a Ram. Nice simple 5.7 hemi with enough room under the hood to damn near stand beside the engine to replace the spark plugs. Pop the hood on any modern Ford with any engine option and good luck seeing the ground. Had my Ram 5 years now and zero issues so far.
On the key not being able to be removed…. Make sure the neutral switch on the shifter is working. Try removing the key when in neutral instead of park, or try to to put the car from reverse to park several times and see if it will remove.
I have had ford vehicles for 65 years. I currently have a 22 King Ranch Explorer. 400Hp 3.0 Twin Turbo. Have 13k miles. No issues gets great mileage and all power I need!
This is why I buy cars with tested technology and simple engines. The only newer technology I do like is my automated cruise control since I drive long distances. I have used it for four years now and there haven’t been any problems. But other than that, I don’t want a heated steering wheel, power seats, cylinder deactivation in the engine, eight screens throughout the car, etc.
I've owned both Ford and GM vehicles. From my experience, the fords are way more reliable. The transmissions on my GMC Denali crapped out of me at 90,000 miles. My Ford Expedition has over 160,000 miles still on the original transmission running strong, never had any issues.
I’ve seen an older Expedition with the 5.4L V8 get over 300,000 miles with no issues other than basic maintenance. New vehicles are meant to be thrown away!
I had an 82 F150 with a 4.9 (300) inline 6cyl with a 2 barrel carb and a 3spd automatic transmission and still got 21mpg on the freeway. It didn’t have any smog crap and it did just fine. It was a Great pickup and I sold it with almost 600K miles and it still wasn’t burning oil

Ford’s slogan in the 80s and 90s was Quality is Job 1. Apparently that isn’t the case anymore.
Now it's 'Quality is Job None'
Never was...our 97 Taurus needed a second engine and 3rd tranny and many other parts.

I have a 2011 Expedition that has been wonderful. Every time I get an oil change they try to get me to trade it.
Yep , we need more basic vehicles. People have forgotten what a vehicle is actually for.
V8 is the way to go
Things are too complicated these days. Imagine when it's 10 years old?
That’s just a lemon he’s got I have 2 20 and 9 year old expeditions. Neither of which have any problems. The 15 is fully loaded with tech too and no issues. find what works best for you. Not other people.
No one keeps them for 10 years anymore anyway.

Make up ur mind Scotty @0:49 you say “it’s not like this thing is made in Mexico, it was made in the USA!” You always claim everything in Mexico is crap and the US builds superior quality yet this ford is full of issues?
I'm just gonna stick to my 2004 Chevy Silverado short bed with 200000 miles on it still runs great.
Anyhow I don't like all this new electronic junk they can have it. I don't even have power windows.

“Quality is job 3!”

Been using it as my landscaping work truck for the past 13 years too!
No surprise. You might want to keep it lol they dont make them like they used to.
4RW70 transmission with a 2valve 4.6 V8 or a 4.2 V6. Simple to fix and reliable 👍
Worst years for Ford 😂 that's great that ur truck has lasted you that long but those 5.4 triton motors plus the electronics and transmissions were garbage I'd say 2000 to 2008 was a bad time to own a Ford

Has the owner ever heard of the Lemon Law? I used it once on a Ford Aerostar that would just stop in the middle of the highway for no reason. They took it back and paid me the purchase price back. I would suggest that the owner gives it a shot. Only works for new cars.
Has to be within the first 12 months.

Wrong.....
@@johnpeters9793 so tell me what's the stipulations than.
After he gets done with having to pay a lawyer and going through litigation he will have paid for his Expedition 2 times over. Ford doesn't care, they have attorneys on retainer making the same amount of money regardless.
@Deus Vult
That's not how it works.
If the manufacturer denies the claim after you have submitted it in writing to the dealer, an attorney will take the case on consignment.....
The manufacturer would be responsible for attorney fees if the plaintiff wins
The lemon law claim is black and white...the vehicle either qualifies or it doesn't.
Too Much Tech = Too much Crap you do not need
Scotty You Should Send a Copy of this Video to Ford, Maybe they'll make Changes to these Ford Pickup Trucks, Which I doubt, (But-Maybe) ! ! !
I saw a Ford e-mustang on the road here in California. Ford really blew it with that one. Looks like a small SUV.
It is an SUV .
All the shenanigans of an suv driver with the horsepower of a muscle car
🤦♂️
It is a small suv.
FoMoCo has always been known for financial & marketing emphasis.
it is one. if there's a bright side to it; it's a family-suited mustang. if that makes sense lol.
Oh man! I just rented one in January for a ski trip, it was a '22 4WD Expedition Max. About 2 hours into the drive on the highway when trying to pass someone the transmission would SLAM down a gear and I would lose all power. After a few times the dash lit up like a Christmas tree and the Pre Collision Assist warning came on and the car went into limp mode! What a piece of JUNK! Take it up to 65mph and then mash the gas and see what happens when it downshifts.
I’ve owned 2 expeditions, Both of which I still drive. My 2003 Eddie Bauer has 270k miles and counting. My 2015 which I bought last year with 81.5k miles now has 109k miles 0 issues with either vehicle. I’m sticking with these until they straighten this quality thing out!
What did the Eddie Bauer Edition come with? I’ve always wanted one
@@G_Wagon44 rear climate control, leather package, dvd player, heated/ventilated seats, foot adjusting pedals, 6 cd player, sunroof. And this is all back in 2003. The ventilated seats was a steal back in the day that’s why we bought it over a Toyota or any car for that matter.
Yes the old straight up v8 hard to beat. Crown Vic's expeditions mustangs f150 really hard to beat straight up body on frame v8 tried tested and true.
I own a '98, a '04, and an '05 expeditions. The '05 has 320,000 and the '04 has 340,000 miles. Both run like new and everything works properly.
Maintenance is everything and ALWAYS use Motorcraft parts. All those aftermarket & 'high performance' parts are garbage and cause problems. 👍
I work at a Ford dealership for 2 years. In the small strand of those years, our shop has so many lemons, and we've had so many cars fubar from factory. I'm getting out. Cant sell the product anymore with blind faith.
I agree was a tech back in 07 at ford models back then we’re ok but now garbage
You are doing the right thing not to push this crap on the public.
I heard Ford keeps pushing vehicles out of the assembly even if they see an issue and let the dealers deal with it, unlike Toyota which stops the entire assembly line to fix a problem.
Fix or Repair Daily
Sounds just about exactly right! 👌
Ford = JUNK
289 ford , 302 Ford boy those were the days
I agree. My 2000 Crown Vic LX w/ a 4.6 liter V8 (289) still gets up & goes w/ 110,000 on the clock. For an extra added low end kick, l removed the air silencer and cut out the bottom of the stock air box, reinstalled the box & put a K&N airfilter in it. I call it a *"POOR MANS COLD AIR INDUCTION KIT"* cuz it only cost me my time and the cost of the new filter & filter cleaning kit, less than $100. A brand new cold air induction kit for my car pushes the $400 mark.😲😲😲
Here in Ireland Fords rust badly.
Same in America

FORD = Fix Or Repair Daily for last couple of decades. Still true.
With the Start / Stop, believe me it’ll cost you more money for another starter than you save in fuel
Yups batteries and the starter will eventually go out. And they ain’t cheap!!
2016 F150 eco boost with 100k on it. Not a single issue since day 1, only oil changes.
Just wait.
@@thealgorithmisbrokenyeah my dad bought a ford f150 in 2015 and after 40k miles the whole engine went out. I will never trust them. Especially when my used toyota Camry with 274k miles still runs without any major issues ever
My father drove a ‘63 Chevy Impala when I was a kid . It had crank windows. I once asked if he wouldn’t like a car with power windows. He replied: “Just another thing to go wrong.” Judging by today’s cars, he was AHEAD of his time!
The 2021 F-150's had all kinds of chip issues! My 2021 F-150 was replaced by Ford with a 2022 F-150 under Michigan Lemon Law. I only had 300 miles on it and I couldn't safely drive it or tow my boat because of constant electrical fault messages and the turn signals not working right. The Ford dealer tore out the dash twice and replaced the APIM Module 2X, but nothing would fix my problems. A Ford engineer neighbor told me to get out of my lease as quick as possible due to all the defects. On a good note, FoMoCo replaced the truck with a 2022 F-150 XLT with all the same options and it is GREAT. No issues at all and everything works fine. They also reloaded all my lease miles and said I could buy the truck at the end of the lease at the 2021 price, if interested. That means I could get a $63,247 truck for $43,000. I plan on buying it!
The only motor to buy in a Ford is the 5.0L V8. It has all the power you need and it gets deceit gas mileage. They ruined the Explorer with their Eco Boost motors only. There was nothing wrong with their 3.5 V6 in it.
We rented a 2022 expedition king ranch. That twin turbo v6 is a rocketship for a huge vehicle. We loved it but didn't have to live with it. Drove it hard and returned it.
Ford gets a bad rep for being really bad. When the glove fits .
Drove one of the Ford bronco sports with the tiny 1.5L engine and 8 speed transmission as a rental.
That thing SUCKED driving in town.
Never knew what gear it wanted to be in. Shifting back and forth constantly. I can only imagine that severely over boosted engine won't last and the transmission is probably screwed. It is doing 10x the shifts of a normal vehicle with in town driving.
The new "bronco" is a pile of crap
@iowameatgoats , I like the classic look, but Fords quality is in the toilet.
That's funny you say that. I drove my bosses wife's Bronco sport and I thought the same thing. It was constantly hunting gears. It refused to downshift properly going up hills too. I've owned Ford's with sticky electronic shift solenoids and that's what this thing was like. Pretty bad considering it was only 2 years old tops.
As the owner of both a 2018 Explorer and a 2021 Edge I can attest that Ford builds junk. When you pay assemblers $18.00 an hour this is what you get. I’m a Union guy and my next vehicle more than likely will be a Toyota.
Makes me really want to keep my 99 150 with a very reliable 4.6 V8
Yup
Only problem is that the 4.6 is weak.
You said it 4.6L = reliable. People will complain it's weak. But that's why it lasts for so damn long.
@@SLUSHIE1ST I think you mean slow not weak these engines were very durable it’s why police/taxi cap used them for over two decades.
1999 F250 5.4 4x4 , 327k miles , other than regular maintenance I've only had to replace the alternator and the starter.. just the facts.
In sport mode the auto start/stop is disabled. You don't have to take the extra step of turning it off.
That start stop is terrible for the engine.
Just bought a 2023 toyota tacoma v6, i love it and the build quality is excellent.
Awesome, I bet it'll outlast any EcoBoost powered vehicle with ease.
@@CJColvin it’ll surely beat any cvt transmission too. Toyota, Honda Subaru cvts and cvts in general are garbage!
Maybe. You should have a handle on it in 2 or 3 years. Last time I peeked at replacing my old tacoma was [I think] around 2012 give or take. I was unimpressed by the screen, the console, and interior in general - it made me want to leave and not come back. If I was given one... I might entertain redoing the dash etc. Admittedly, I like tactile things that don't take my eyes off the road: levers for a/c, volume knobs for radio, etc. I'm not at 15,000 feet when driving, where a nice comfy cushion of 10-15 seconds of 'eyes off' time doesn't miss much [outside of being near airport approach patterns].
@@CJColvin plenty of first gen ecoboost F150s in my area with a few hundred thousand trouble free miles.
@331stang95 Yeah but they won't outlast the Tacomas nor the Tundras mate.
2019 ford expedition platinum max at 86k miles no issues. i stay on top of my maintenance, in fact, earlier than manufacturer's schedule
I totally agree with him the problem is all the manufacturers are making that kind of crap nowadays. Even Toyota went to TwinTurbo V6. That’s why I kept my V-8 Toyota. Not the best gas mileage but runs like a top. But that thing doesn’t give you any gas mileage either.
Quality is going down for just about all brands at the same time when prices are going up, makes no sense. No wonder used car prices keep going up and they will continue to do so.
Amen Brother
Thanks government for making auto manufacturers get rid of V-8s
We need the V8s to get rid of government ✌️
@Clifford Cullen Exactly mate, but these EcoBoost lovers just don't seem to care if the V8 dies.
It seems to me that their CEO is kind of a dopey dolt... I like buying American but I'm afraid I'm done with Ford, it's really s shame. Fortunately I bought my F150 in 2016 before the quality chaos began.
I love the new 10 speeds. Being a trans builder at Aamco, I’m seeing a lot of these. Job security 👍
😂
LOL how much does a 10 speed cost to rebuild these days?
More gears , more to go wrong !
😂
Yeah it’s the Ford stock tune from factory that wears them out. They can handle up to 700WHP no problem, but the tune Ford has in them sucks!
Ford has been failing in quality for years. I used to be a Ford fan but not anymore. I buy either Hondas or Toyotas now.
Your right Scotty. Today's cars are expensive crap. I always buy older cars . Easier to work on and cheaper parts. You can do it yourself.
Couldn't agree more brother
Yup. I'll take the "old tech" any day.
Yeah... and the old cars run on all cylinders and don't shut off at a red light. Blame this garbage on the Government pressuring manufacturers..
@@Nobamaable Exactly mate and doesn't have all of these stupid EcoBoost engines as well.
I only buy 1 owner dealer maintained cars or trucks, nothing newer than 02.
Even if its a model or color I dont like, havent gone wrong yet. That gen still believed in preventative maintenance.
We were all told that all of this🐂💩 electronics was added to these vehicles to in order to save us repairs because sensors are supposed to let us know to make minor repairs before major repairs are necessary. But yet, we end up constantly replacing sensors and or the sensors are causing other systems problems 🤦♂️. Good for the dealerships I guess. Next, we were told that the electronics will make the vehicles more fuel efficient, and it would, except for the fact that all of the extra added 🐂💩 emissions tech negates the fuel efficiency it would have had, in order to have less CO2 emitted🤦♂️. My 92 6.2 litre deisel Single cab Sierra still gets 25 mpg and very few emissions. These new Sierras still can barely get that kind of mileage. What a crock of 💩 these companies and government officials are feeding us.
I'm an unhappy owner of a 21 F-150 Powerboost. Between all the issues I've had, the awful service experience, and the recalls, I will never buy another Ford vehicle. Great video.

That ford is an absolute lemon. He should get a lawyer.
$55K for that piece of junk! You can buy a low mileage RX350 and you will live without headaches.
The key and the lock wear together. If one key gets used all the time it is possible that the spare won't work at all. Swap them out from time to time so that everything wears together. Fortunately there are now aftermarket ignition lacks which can be programmed to your existing key so you don't have to mess with paying someone to program them. There are procedures for programming keys yourself for many vehicles. Just search for your vehicle. As a backup, know your key code.
That truck is still under warranty, I know in Avon Ohio we build 400 f250 thru f750 , businesses can’t get them fast enough
400 per day
We have a 2017 ford explorer now it’s 2023 no issues
Been a Ford family for a really long time. I'm sure a ton of Ford owners will agree with me: F'ing Ford transmissions man..
It’s perfectly normal for the 10 speed to skip a gear. That freaks a lot of people out most think it’s a problem with the transmission.
Worst thing they did was put that indicator on the dash that shows what gear its shifting to.
It's designed that way. Just like semi's they will skip gears all the time. Depends on the load and demand.
I can sum up Ford's problems with three words 1. Bill 2. Ford 3. Junior
Another Scottyism: “Ergo Dynamicly”. Love it!
I drive a 2020 Ford F450 turbo diesel as my work truck. Transmission was crap from the start. Then there was a recall. Still crap. Took it back under warranty. Then back a third time. Then Ford finally put in a new transmission.
Our 2020 f550 work truck also has transmission problems. It's also on it's 3rd engine oil pan which is currently leaking. All fixed previously by the local Ford dealer. Screw the new Ford's.
Ford was the best American brand for a long time, but seems they are on the downtrend. Why everyone hasn't switched to Japanese vehicle by now blows my mind. They have only been putting out a much superior product for oh, what, the last 50 years!

I've been a diehard Ford guy my whole life but I'd never buy a new Ford. Everyone I know has issues with their new Ford's. Their build quality has gone downhill hard the last 20-25 years. I needed a new truck so I bought a Ram. Nice simple 5.7 hemi with enough room under the hood to damn near stand beside the engine to replace the spark plugs. Pop the hood on any modern Ford with any engine option and good luck seeing the ground. Had my Ram 5 years now and zero issues so far.
On the key not being able to be removed…. Make sure the neutral switch on the shifter is working. Try removing the key when in neutral instead of park, or try to to put the car from reverse to park several times and see if it will remove.
I was going to say this also. I have this issue with my Subaru I have to take it in and out of park a few times to get the key out.
I get so sick of the "worshipping at the alter of Toyota" there's good and bad in all of them, he just refuses to take Toyotas name in vain.

Agree that's why I keep my older vehicles
I have had ford vehicles for 65 years. I currently have a 22 King Ranch Explorer. 400Hp 3.0 Twin Turbo. Have 13k miles. No issues gets great mileage and all power I need!
This is why I buy cars with tested technology and simple engines. The only newer technology I do like is my automated cruise control since I drive long distances. I have used it for four years now and there haven’t been any problems. But other than that, I don’t want a heated steering wheel, power seats, cylinder deactivation in the engine, eight screens throughout the car, etc.
I've owned both Ford and GM vehicles. From my experience, the fords are way more reliable. The transmissions on my GMC Denali crapped out of me at 90,000 miles. My Ford Expedition has over 160,000 miles still on the original transmission running strong, never had any issues.
I’ve seen an older Expedition with the 5.4L V8 get over 300,000 miles with no issues other than basic maintenance. New vehicles are meant to be thrown away!
I had an 82 F150 with a 4.9 (300) inline 6cyl with a 2 barrel carb and a 3spd automatic transmission and still got 21mpg on the freeway.
