Buying a used 2024 Ford Expedition? Check these 7 recalls first
Two of the 2024 Expedition's recalls are engine oil leaks, one described as sudden — those are the campaigns to chase paperwork on. Front brake lines that can leak and trailer brakes and lights that may fail are also open safety items, while the camera blanking, missing airbag label, and peeling console chrome are minor. Owners filed 72 unverified NHTSA complaints, with forward collision avoidance and service brakes among the top areas alongside electrical.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Look under the engine and where it parks for oil spotting or a suspiciously clean bay.
- Confirm both oil-leak recalls and the brake line recall show completed on this VIN.
- Test the forward collision warning and brake feel; complaints cluster there, though unverified.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
