Explorer XLT V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 157,000 miles

I THINK I HAVE NOW REPLACED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE ON THIS SUV

SOME THINGS MORE THAN ONCE. WHEN YOU READ COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEMS OVER AND OVER FORD SHOULD HAVE ISSUED SOME RECALLS OR SOMETHING; INSTEAD THEY WILL LOSE LOYAL CUSTOMERS LIKE ME WHO HAS ALWAYS PURCHASED FORD CARS AND SUV'S

A PIECE OF JUNK - I WILL BE PURCHASING A NEW CAR SOON AND THERE IS NO WAY ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH WOULD I BUY ANOTHER FORD

Explorer V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 400 miles

When we turn the steering wheel all the way like when making a u turn, it sounds like the car is breaking. Its like metal rubbing together somewhere. We took it back to the dealer a few times and of course they cant find anything wrong with it. We took it to other Ford dealers and they all say the same thing. This is not normal. But Ford doesn't care.
