NHTSA Service Bulletin 11024019: 2025 Ford Expedition
Official manufacturer communication context for 2025 Ford Expedition, with affected products, buyer checks and links into Carchieve recall, problem and VIN research.
Reviewed June 2026 from NHTSA manufacturer communication and service bulletin records. Carchieve is independent and not affiliated with any vehicle manufacturer or government agency.
Some 2025 Expedition/Navigator vehicles equipped with 24-inch wheels from the factory may experience vibrations felt at highway speeds that have been isolated to the wheel/tire assemblies. This may be due to tire flat-spotting. Dealers should refer to Pinpoint Test G located in the Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 204-04A, for help with diagnosing this condition. If Pinpoint Test results conclude that any tires require replacement, replace all four tires on the vehicle with the new factory tire design. The new factory tire design can be identified as Goodyear part number 102224387 / Department of Transportation (DOT) alphanumeric code 1M69B JA3R (this can be found on the tire's sidewall). To order for new tire on the Tire Sales Tool website, click on the Search By: Part Number link, located under the Find button > in the Part # field, enter 102224387 > in the Prefix field, Select 9001 / Goodyear / Cooper / Dunlop / Kelly. The previous version of the factory Goodyear tire (DOT 1M69B JA2R) must not be used. Upon receiving the new tires, verify the correct DOT alphanumeric code (1M69B JA3R)
