The 2024FORDEXPEDITION carries 86 consumer safety complaints in NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation database for this specific model-year cohort. Within that volume, owners reported 10 crashes, 0 fires, 13 injuries, and 0 fatalities. For crash performance, NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program gave this cohort an overall 5/5 rating, with 5/5 front crash, 5/5 side crash, and 4/5 rollover scores derived from standardized barrier and dynamic tests.
Component-level analysis is where model-year complaints become actionable: the top complaint category for the 2024 EXPEDITION is unknown or other with 11 filings, followed by electrical system (10) and service brakes (8). Concentration in one or two component groups is the classic signature of a systemic defect; a flat distribution usually reflects normal aging, warranty complaints, or isolated build-plant variability. This model year has 6 active recall campaigns, which means the manufacturer is obligated to remedy the covered defect at no charge for the life of the vehicle, the full NHTSA campaign numbers are listed below.
NHTSA currently has 4 investigation files overlapping the 2024 EXPEDITION. Owners comparing this cohort against neighboring years should pair the counters above with the complaint-by-year trend on the parent model page, a spike in a single year often tracks to a platform refresh, a new transmission supplier, or an updated ECU calibration.

Bought the car on Feb 14th 2026. We were told Avis car sales in fontana does their vehicle inspection on every car before its sold. We noticed the two back tires on the expedition were bald and showing cords. We told Tawnya and George about the tires and they said they would order them, they'd be in within two days and to bring the car back to get them replaced. When we got home we setup ford diagnostics and found out the oil life was at 29% so they also lied and sent us out with bad oil. We checked the dip stick and yeah super dark oil. We've called two days in a row and keep getting told they are busy and they will call us back, they have not. We have tried to reach corporate but they dont have a department for this. The vehicle is currently sitting because of how bad the tires are, its 100% not safe to drive. Trying to get the dealership to honor the safety fix they promised but they are avoiding it.

The rear portion of the panoramic moonroof shattered spontaneously while the vehicle was being operated, without any impact or external cause.
On Monday, January 12, I was driving down the highway with 2 of my coworkers, when all of a sudden there was a loud pop and glass shattered. My sunroof had exploded. It was a sunny clear day, there were no vehicles in front of us and we were not going under an overpass. We pulled over to take pictures and drove the vehicle straight to Ford. We have since read that this type of incident has occurred before with multiple other Expeditions.
My wife tried to move my expedition from spot to another in our parking lot During that maneuver the gas pedal assembly broke down and the car in high speed created some personal and property damages I have the part handy and ready for inspection up on request The insurance knows about it And I had a police report No warning prior to the incident
Vehicle was driving approximately 65 miles per hour on interstate. Upon crossing a bridge the sunroof exploded sending glass flying inside the vehicle. The vehicle was equipped with a dash camera which also captured audio. No external object struck the vehicle. Two children and an adult in the vehicle were struck with flying glass. The video has been saved and can be provided in addition to the pictures.
I was driving on the I95 and just passed the McHenry tunnel when out of nothing I heared a loud bang and my moon roof spontaneously shattered into pieces. Nothing hit it and after inspection there was also no other damage on the car but the rear part of the moonroof that was completely shattered.
I own a 2024 Ford Expedition XLT. The vehicle repeatedly loses multiple federally mandated safety systems including Blind Spot Monitoring, Cross-Traffic Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, and camera systems. Alerts include: âCross-Traffic System Fault,â âBlind Spot System Fault,â âPre-Collision Assist Not Available,â âFront Camera Fault,â and âCheck Parking Sensors.â Ford has acknowledged this as a known issue with a fix delayed until June. My dealer (Morries Ford, Buffalo MN) is charging $225 each time the defect recurs just to clear errors. This is a safety defect that places my family at risk. Ford is refusing to cover the full repair cost and the dealer is charging for temporary resets.

I purchased this 2024 Ford Expedition brand new from a Ford certified dealer (Conklin Cars, Newton , Kansas). Upon driving off the lot for the first time to a gas station across the street from the dealer, at restart all the sensor gave warnings. Sensors that gave warning include: Blind spots sensors, back-up sensors, Froward impact, lane departure, automatic braking, rear cross traffic, and the cruise display. I took it back to the dealership and the reset the system and upon starting the vehicle after parked, all the sensors stopped working again. I then took the Ford Expedition back to the certified dealer (Conklin Cars, Newton , Kansas) and they game me sheets of paper, Last one give after 4 visits to dealer [XXX]) stating that Ford knows of the an issues, which appear to be right off the factory line. This has been over a year and there have been several close calls for me and my family without these sensors, which is standard in most cars these days. Me and my family expect

I would like to report the seats. I bought my vehicle new. The seats has caused me to have medical issues. It has also caused one other person issues too, so it was not just me. I have never had any sort of back or leg issues before getting this vehicle. I now have severe Sciatica Nerve problems. Which, I have seen the Doctor for. It flares up so bad while I am driving my right leg goes into extreme pain then it goes numb. Which is not helpful since this is the foot I use the gas and brake with. This is my only transportation, so I do not have another vehicle to drive. I have had my son drive this vehicle when we went on a trip. I sat in the middle row captain chair and it was the same issue. This trip was when my daughter in-law (Which is an RN) starting having the same issues as myself.
