problem #1

Explorer XLT 4.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 70,000 miles

The low tire pressure indicator kept coming on, visited my local ford dealer and they found a bad/loose sensor floating around in my tire( silly me had just replaced all 4 tires at the goodyear dealer) and Ford dealer indicated that they (Goodyear) had damaged the retainer straps causing the low pressure and that I was on the hook for the new sensor/strap, I agreed but then mentioned that after my last visit to them they had assured me that all of my wheel hubs/bearings were ok to travel but I ended up being out of state and my right rear wheel bearing self-destructed locking up my right rear wheel. When I returned to pick up my truck I was informed verbally that they had replaced 3 of my tire pressure sensors/straps at no charge and that I was still responsible for 1 sensor/strap assembly. I was still kinda bugged but figured that it was a mute point and paid the bill. Also they verbally mentioned that they had also checked all of the wheel hubs/bearing assemblies. Hmmmmmm
