Since purchasing this vehicle in January of 2023, it has been to the dealer three times to repair a failed blind spot monitoring system and rear cross traffic alert system due to corroded pins in the connectors of the sensors. According to the dealer, this is due to the connector utilizing only four of eight pins which leaves four pins unused and open to corrosion. On the third trip in, the dealer applied, "super glue" to try and prevent any future corrosion. While there was not a specific accident related to this, I do believe this has the potential to cause issues in the future if not properly addressed by Ford. See attached pdf from dealer for additional supporting information.

For the fourth time our brand new Ford Expedition has had a issue with the SYNC radio B&O Sound system. It initially started out where the 15.5 inch screen locked up and no radio, Bluetooth would work and couldn-??t even control climate. The dealer got to see this first hand and had no interest in investigating. Now the last three times has been a HORRIFYING pop and extremely loud static and popping like fire works inside the car. Two of the three times luckily my wife wasn-??t driving. The most recent time this happened as we were driving down the road and THANKFULLY no car was in the opposite lane as it caused me to jump and swerve because i though we had been hit. This could have ended very badly under the wrong timing and especially with my 4 year old and infant in the car which they also started screaming because it was ear piercing. After a little investigation I have come to see this is no new issue with the Ford Sync B&O sound system. Some people have stated the dealers complimentary changed the amplifiers and seemed to have solved the problem. Sadly the two dealers in my area will not even look into it unless the problem is currently occurring. The bad part is that the next time it does occur could be detrimental to the life of my wife and kids!

I just had the same issue described in the forum listed below. Extremely loud max volume screeching static through the speakers. Tried turning the car off and on several times, tried turning the radio off, tried switching to Serius xm radio, nothing would make it stop and it was completely unsafe to drive it like that. It was too loud to hear anything else over it and it was so jarring. I now have a headache and i-??m nervous to drive it for fear of it happening again. My husband had to disconnect the battery to get it to stop. I have a video but it doesn-??t seem like I can upload it here, only pics. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/extremely-loud-electrical-pop-followed-by-loud-static.9591/page-4
