The 2015–2017 Expedition uses the same key setup, so everything on this page applies to those years too. The full picture is on the Ford Expedition key guide.

Same key system as the 2015–2017 Expedition

Ford kept the Expedition's key system unchanged across 2015–2017, so everything about replacing a 2016 key — blanks, programming, and what happens if every key is lost — matches the rest of that run. The full year-by-year breakdown lives in our Ford Expedition key guide.

What drives the price is the key type, whether you still have a working key, and where the car is parked. There's more on Ford programming in general on our Ford key page.
