Explorer 8-cyl

I notice the 2001 Ford Excursion had gear box problems. I just had to replace steering and tie rods on my 2001 Explorer. Also, I had to replace the idle control valve and a friend also has an idol control valve problem on his 2001 Explorer. Are these problems at large. If so, I would love to have Ford reimburse me for these charges on a vehicle that just has 37,600 miles on it.
