Time limit on recalls?

I bought a used 2000 Expedition a few years ago and just saw the recalls for it listed here:

2000 FORD EXPEDITION Recalls

Is it too late to have these issues taken care of, if they haven't already?

no it is NEVER to late to have recalls fixed. The federal government is the one who tells dealers that they WILL fix the problem as long it is brought in.

Safety recalls never expire. Do not confuse safety recalls with "Owner Notification Programs" which have specific limits.

There is a tool on Ford's website that allows you to search for any open recalls by your VIN. Any Ford dealer will also do this. Take advantage of one of these avenues and learn what is still open on your specific vehicle.
