I have a 2003 Expedition with only 31000 miles. At 26000 miles I noticed a grinding vibration when I turned right or left.. I went to the dealership and was told this is a common problem with 2003,04 Expedition. The cluthes in the rear differential goes bad every 30,000 mile and the cost will be $1250 dollars to repair. If Ford know this is a problem, why haven't they issued a recall? we as owners shouldn't have to continue to pay this every 30,000 miles. My E-mail address is [xxx]. please respond.

I kept feeling a "slipping feeling" in the rear of my 2003 Ford Expedition. Like a gear and notches of the gear were not lining up properly to inter-lock and turn. It would feel like a jumping, slipping. I took it local dealership, they replaced the rear clutches. Since that time, it has been in two different dealerships in less than a year and the rear clutches have been replaced five times and now I am about to take in for number six.
