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.

Probably blend door issue.
This is for a taurus, but it would be similar

You could also try flushing out just the heater core. Of course, on my wifes '99 Expedition I chose to cut the heater hoses and install a copper pipe with hose clamps afterwards, instead of trying to disconnect the factory heater hoses at each end.

Be sure and use only low pressure waterhose water & flush the heater core out BOTH ways!! If this doesn't work, then a failing blend door actuator or a broken blend door shaft is at fault.

Good luck & keep us posted.
