The 2012 Ford Expedition: Engine repair
Engine repair for the 2012 Ford Expedition: the work is done by a shop we trust, never by CarmaCars. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your Expedition and the shop
Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Expedition. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 5.4L 8-cylinder. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. The 5.4L 8-cylinder with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
How the arrangement works
You agree everything with the shop before work begins. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. You approve the shop's quote before any work.
A rental while you wait
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. We collect the rental when your car is back. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. Ask what warranty the shop gives on its parts and labour.
Between shop visits
Top up the washer fluid with a winter mix in the cold months. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow.
Your move
Send a request: the car, the problem and when suits you.
