I have to give credit where credit is due and say that when I initially purchased my 2008 Ford Expedition from this place I began experiencing transmission problems within the first week. They put me in a loaner for free and took it to a Ford dealership to have it diagnosed and looked over. It turns out the main issue that I was having was the transmission control module needed to be reflashed under a Ford TSB would still cost close to $ 300. I paid for that out of pocket and in the days following the transmission was making a funny sound. Ford couldn’t find any other problems with it and stated that it was most likely due to the reflash. Since then I’ve noticed rust spots in the door jambs and I took it to a body shop to have the rust repaired. The rust I noticed was inside the drivers side rear door and the tailgate. $ 500 later the rust was repaired and repainted however the body shop warned me that this vehicle although the carfax was clean had been in a collision and the entire left side had been repainted very poorly. I had a mechanic look it over or any other rust issues that I should be aware of in the future and he stated that my exhaust is on the way out also due to rust and my timing chain tensioner is on the way out. There’s salt embedded throughout the frame. His recommendation is that I have the entire thing thoroughly cleaned and possibly apply a rust converter which will also cost me hundreds if not thousands of dollars. When I purchased this vehicle I purchased it slightly above nada value. Their sales pitch is that they sell quality vehicles just like CarMax which is why they were very unwilling to negotiate on the price. This vehicle is absolutely terrible and I have definitely bought someone else’s problems. As of now I’d recommend than anybody in the market for a used car steer clear of this place it is been nothing but a headache I should have kept my old beater.
