Ford Expedition True expeditions require additional transportation conveyances: horses, boats, cars, for example. With a towing capacity around 9,000 pounds, the Ford Expedition can tow any of these. Ford adds a new top end King Ranch model for 2008, as well as an available rear backup camera and power-retractable running boards. The Expedition is meant for utility, not posing.

Default 2003 brakes

I have 2003 expedition with 52,000 miles-had a front and rear brake job done a week ago at Ford and now when I step on the brake pedal the car stops but with constant pressure on the pedal it goes down to the floor-If I let up on the pedal the brakes will engage but the pedal will then go down to the floorbor again-did not do this before the brake job. Ford says the brakes are fine and that what I am experiencing is normal operation and that the situation will improve as the brakes seat. So, is this normal and if not what is the problem

"Ford says"...? Who are we talking about the dealership or did u call Ford Motor Co?

With brakes I'd get a 2nd opinion either way. Safety First buddy!!!

B.S. The pedal should never go to the floor. Sounds like they didn't do a good job on bleeding the system.
