  Typical American car - does not hold up - 1998 Ford Expedition
  By Thomas Fong - August 12 - 8:33 pm

  Poor gas mileage and does not hold up as well as a foreign made Japanese or European vehicle. Ford did not support vehicle for spare parts beyond 10 years.

  Great car but dont buy! - 1998 Ford Expedition
  By sla - September 4 - 1:37 am

  Loved this vehicle until electrical problems started that dealership had trouble fixing. Then we found out the hard way that Ford Expedition and trucks in 98 and 99 have major engine defects involving the cylinder heads. Now needs new engine. Ford wont acknowledge but it is common knowledge.

  Fun / But - 1998 Ford Expedition
  By dlhickman - May 24 - 2:00 am

  This is a fun vehicle to drive, but watch out for the mechanical. The direct ignition system is prone to failure w/these coils running 100+ -- replacement of the eight could set you back 1200-1500

  OMG ITs a Ford - 1998 Ford Expedition
  By JCS - March 24 - 2:00 am

  It has 130,000 miles on it and has been reasonable for repairs. Some quirkiness in the electronics such as lights and chimes that wont deactivate when they should. The tranny is groaning a bit even after service. 4wd system is excellent and the ride is comfortable. Just dont try an Indy car moves on the roadway or you will roll the beast. The brakes are expensive to replace. Seems that everytime it needs a brake job the rotors are toast. I am a very easy driver on the vehicle. I paid 28,000 for it in 98, used with 12,000 miles. They dont hold their value that well because according to Edmonds its only worth about 8,000 for trade.

  Dont buy this year - 1998 Ford Expedition
  By JMJ - November 2 - 2:00 am

  Due to the multiple electronic issues that this vehicle has caused us we are rushing to drop it before our extended warranty runs out. We know many others w/the SAME issues. The best 2 examples I can tell you from our experience was when it would continuously lock/unlock the doors while also having the radio on & the heater on full blast (no keys in the ignition) blamed on a faulty remote key. A more frightful example is where it was starting itself in our garage (again w/out keys). This time it was blamed on water shorting a computer... which sounds like the closest reason yet all of these electrical nightmares have happened.
