The 2022 Ford Expedition belongs to the 4th generation (TB8, 2022 refresh) (2022-2024), built with 3.5L EcoBoost twin-turbo V6 with the 10R80 10-speed automatic. It takes 5W-30 synthetic blend (WSS-M2C961-A1), 6.0 qt with filter. Oil changes run up to 10,000 miles or 12 months, set by the Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor, with a 5,000-mile fallback if the monitor is reset or fails. This is the first model year of that generation, so it is the build most likely to carry early-production quirks and the most likely to have accumulated technical service bulletins.
A 2022 Ford Expedition is 4 years old in 2026, which at an average 12,000 miles a year puts it around 48,000 miles - early ownership. Around 48,000 miles a vehicle is typically past its earliest wear items and into its first real round of scheduled service. Costs are still low at this stage, which makes it the cheapest point to stay ahead of whatever this vehicle's own schedule calls for rather than catch up on it later. On that mileage estimate it is already past its 30,000-mile service, which its own schedule lists as: Replace the engine air filter.
The fault most worth knowing about on this generation is Using a pre-2022 coolant capacity overfills this truck - the system dropped from 18.0-18.5 qt to 16.0 qt at the refresh. Owners also report A limited-slip 9.75 rear axle refilled with plain 75W-85 and no friction modifier will chatter in tight turns; and Driving regularly on unpaved, dusty or sandy roads overrides the oil-life monitor entirely with a flat 5,000-mile oil change, along with tire rotation and a wheel inspection on the same interval. None of these are certainties on any individual vehicle - they are the patterns worth checking for when you buy or when a symptom appears.

The table above is indexed by service interval. This is the same schedule indexed by odometer reading, for when you know your mileage and want the list. If your odometer sits between these figures, work back to the last one you passed and catch up anything skipped.

Maintenance keeps these away, but when the dash does light up these are the codes this vehicle throws most often - each with what it means and what the repair actually costs.
