Tl* the contact owns a 2003 ford expedition. while driving 75 mph, the engine stalled without warning. the contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road. the contact restarted the vehicle after a few minutes and it returned to normal. the vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the main fuse block needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 120,000.
The engine stops running without warning. i was driving on the freeway at 70+ in heavy traffic. all of a sudden the engine shuts down. i put the vehicle in neutral and engaged the flashers. i tried to restart the vehicle while maneuvering to the side of the road avoiding multiple close calls. once stopped, i put the vehicle in park and tried to restart. after a couple of minutes the car restarted. i took the vehicle to the autozone to see if there were any fault codes. one code indicated the fuel pump was an issue. they advised me that they have seen this before and directed me to go to the dealership. the dealership could not look at it immediately so i had my son pick me up with another vehicle. the following day they ran a diagnostics ($95 fee that was totally unnecessary since this is a well know failure) on the car and indicated that it was the faulty central junction fuse box located inside the vehicle on the passenger side near the feet. pn 3l1z-14-a068-aa-a11 @$517. installation costs $215. when ...
Tl* the contact owns a 2003 ford expedition. occasionally, the vehicle would not immediately start due to a faulty fuse box. the fuse box was replaced by the owner and the failure was remedied. eventually, while driving, the vehicle shut completely off and could not be restarted. the cause of the failure was not determined. the manufacturer and local dealer (vista ford in woodland hills, ca) were notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 160,000.
The complaint is in regards to the circuit board. the car may stop at random times. we have been in the vehicle going 35 miles an hour and the car suddenly stopped. it appeared that it was a fuse that burned out.... that seemed to fix the problem temporarily but then it happened again at a higher speed. luckily there were no injuries. ford seems to be aware of this problem and should issue a recall. i was told from dealership that what happens is that the water runs down the side and gets into the fuse box. this is causing a short. so, the reason it worked the first time was because we added a new fuse. but, the second time that it stopped it burned the fuse box. now, i had to tow the vehicle and replace the part costing over $500. after researching this issue it appears to be a number of complains with the same issue. ford should issue recall.
