The windshield trim is detaching and won-??t go back into place. I-??m afraid it-??s going to fly off why driving and cause a wreck behind me. I-??ve read this is a known problem. I shouldn-??t have to pay for a known design flaw.

Over the time of ownership for this Ford Explorer (original owner) the window trim and the gasket under the trim has continued to fall off. The gasket on the passenger side has come out enough to where when you are driving it is slapping the window which is very distracting and unsafe to the driver. Most of the gasket has already ripped off. I contacted Ford and they refused to cover it under the warranty. The trim is a one time use item so to replace it they must break it and it cost over $1000 per Ford. This needs to be a recall item it is unsafe!

While driving my Ford Explorer, the rubber seal trim piece on the driver began to come loose and flap around smacking onto the windshield and side front windows. Luckily, there were no other cars next to me when I swerved slightly after being started by the pieces slamming against the car. Since then, the both the driver and passenger side trim pieces have come completely off. I have not taken the vehicle into Ford to get the pieces replaced because I researched the parts required and it is an expensive fix given the way Ford originally installed the trim molding pieces. This should most certainly be a recall as it could result in serious accidents.

On January 11, 2020, I turned on the ignition of my 2017 Explorer sitting in my driveway and immediately had 4 warning lights and multiple error messages appear. It was the ABS, stability control on and off lights and a wrench. Then there were multiple messages about my four wheel drive not working. I turned the car on and off several times trying to get all of the messages and to see if it would clear. After the third restart the entire dash panel went out completely except for the radio which stayed on continuously for 3 days until it got to the dealership on Monday. None of the vehicles basic necessities were working...no speedometer, gas lights, wipers, or climate control, etc. Only the engine, headlights, and taillights worked. The dealership is currently working on the vehicle and is claiming it is a battery problem. The service department has admitted they don't know if it will fix the problem but they are going to try it. They also stated that "the vehicle cleared itself after the battery died which it's not supposed to do". I have seen multiple reports about the exact same problem with different items being replaced, including the battery, to no avail. This is my family's primary vehicle and I regularly drive my 6 and 11 yr old children around in this vehicle. We also travel the highway and 4 lane suspension bridge extensively. Losing these basic systems could result in a life threatening situation for me and my family. I have seen complaints on the internet dating back to December 2016 and the problem is still occurring. The vehicle was in proper working condition, no major problems prior, and well below the mileage expected for a vehicle of this age when the issues occurred. I don't trust it now.

I turned the rear windshield wiper on due to the rain and the blade flew off, permanelty scratching my rear window. Dealer stated it was not thier fault so must be an issue with the wiper blade.
