Before you buy a 2014 Ford Expedition

  • Look underneath for rust.Rust on the frame or underbody weakens the structure and can be expensive or impossible to repair. Surface rust is normal; flaking or holes are not.
  • Check by VIN for open recalls.A recall is a safety fix the carmaker must do for free, even for later owners. Typing the 17-character VIN (on the dashboard and driver door) into nhtsa.gov/recalls shows any that were never done. Codes like 18V332 are recall numbers.No recalls are on record for the 2014 Expedition, but a quick VIN check is still worth it.
