Ford Expedition 4th Generation (U553)

20182024 · U553 · suv

Fourth-gen Expedition (U553) — first aluminum-body Expedition on the T3 platform shared with the F-150. Single engine across the line: 3.5L EcoBoost twin-turbo V6 (375hp standard / 400hp Platinum / 440hp Stealth Performance 2022+). 10R80 10-speed automatic. RWD or 4WD. Max trailer 9,300 lb. Three-row 7- or 8-passenger. EL/Max remained the long-wheelbase option.

Watch out: 3.5L EcoBoost cam-phaser failures on 2018-2020 builds — Ford CSP 21N03 covered some VINs but many owners report $3,000+ phaser/timing jobs out of pocket past the warranty window. 2018-2020 10R80 transmissions had launch-era harsh-shift TSBs that improved with reflashes. Late-build trucks (2021-2024) are more sorted.
