New (Used ) 2004 Expedition Owner

Hi,
I just bought my wife a 2004 EB Expedition. We love it so far. We have some questions before we go back to the dealer for repairs. I hoping this forum will help.
1) Does the sunroof automatically stop in the closed position? Ours don't stop and sometimes we have to move the switch back and forth to close it tight and level.
2) Does the auto door locks automatically unlock when we shut the key off? I thought ours did, but the doors only lock when we start out.
3) Does anyone have a "miss" or "bump" at around 40 MPH at extermily light pressure on the gas pedel?
4) Are there any major issues that I should be on the look out for?

Thanks
Mark

Unless there is a difference in design, I can tell you about my 2004 Navi.
1)Yes the sunroof stops in the closed position. And it is level and tight.
2)Yes the door locks automatically unlock the doors when the engine is shut off/ or the key removed.
I hope this bit of info is useful to you.

1) Yes.
2) Don't use the auto locks, but check your Owner's Manual. I'm sure you can program them to unlock when you shut off and/or remove the key.
3) No.
4) The only problems I've had so far are sunroof that leaks sometimes into the middle seat AC vents and the clicking blender door gear in the rear AC.

3. Yes that bump is on my 2004 as well. I believe it's a form of disengagement somewhere, perhaps a freespool for downhill and idle runs.
2. My truck locks when the speed is over 5mph in forward I believe, and does not unlock automatically, it will however unlock your doors if you attempt to lock them with the keys still in the ignition. A feature I'm not fond of as when I travel I typically leave the engine running while fueling and would like to be able to leave the engine running when making a quick potty break.
