“The fuel pump went out on our 2007 Ford excursion while being operated. When examined, the mechanic stated that we were lucky the vehicle didn't catch fire or blow up since the wiring burned out on the fuel pump in the fuel tank. (I have pictures of the fuel pump that was removed). Someone needs to investigate these fuel pumps and determine what caused the wiring to burn up.”
NHTSA complaint #10418730, filed 2011-08, 86,000 miles“My truck was purchased new and I have recently had more fuel gas waste quickly in the past year. I recently had the fuel line changed in june 2017 because a spark plug burnt out and caused it to have a leak that was dangerously close to the gas tank. I have 123k miles on it and the check engine line comes on every time after half a gas tank is done. I had the truck driving and it shuts off on its own. Sometimes it will have a strong shaking of the motor or no warning at all while driving on the road. …”
NHTSA complaint #11065695, filed 2018-01, 123,800 miles“2007 Ford Expedition 119 wb. My fuel pump stopped working. When I pulled it out of the gas tank I was shocked. One connection had been burned and melted away. I would think that anything getting that hot to melt the plastic and have burn marks on it inside a gas tank would be really bad. I have pictures.”
NHTSA complaint #10410587, filed 2011-07, 48,000 miles“While driving on the interstate or fwy at about 55-60 MPH - I start to increase in speed, while going with the flow of traffic my Expedition eddie bauer model spurts/hesitates/loses power but never cuts off every time before the speed increases. We took it to the Ford dealer several times an they are unable to determine what is wrong with the vehicle. The Ford dealer told us they can't do not about it until the engine light comes on. …”
NHTSA complaint #10522630, filed 2013-07, 85,000 miles“Vehicle experienced a no start. Was towed to Ford dealership for repair; diagnosed as failed fuel pump. Fuel pump was replaced and old pump returned to me. The old pump has a melted and scorched electrical connector where the wiring comes into the pump motor, which in the presence of gasoline vapors, had the potential to be disastrous. I noted several other similar NHTSA complaints regarding this vehicle in this model year. Pictures available upon request.”
