problem #3

May 102014

Expedition

  • 112,000 miles
Wipers fail, came within inches of major crash several times, due to poor or no visibility from rain or snow because of wipers complete failure. Also, power windows fail, interior lights fail, radio fails, 4 wheel drive fail and it was stated on line that air bag failure is also a problem. Can not drive in rain or snow! when looking up the GEM module part (generic electronic module) it was stated in several online parts sources that the 2001 Ford Expedition had a windshield improperley sealed at the factory on the assembly line. Thus water leaks on the GEM module shorting it out; and it was stated that in several of the same vehicles that their entire fuse box fails which is located directly under the GEM module which is mounted on top of the fuse box causing entire electrical failure. I feel it is the responsibility of Ford to recall these vehicles and fix the problem. It is an assembly line failure, I can not renew my licence due to safety standards until this issue is addressed and Ford corrects the problem.

Water appears to have leaked into the electrical system causing the wipers to not function at all. When the wipers are turned on, we hear the wiper motor click; but wipers do not clear the windshield.

The light for the wipers system has been on since we bought the car from the dealership. It has never been able to spray fluid.
