Explorer

  • miles
The gas gauge isn-??t reading correctly. I-??m a mother of a one year old son and I didn-??t noticed that my car was reading wrong until I put in gas and it didn-??t give me the correct reading. I have spoken to many people who owns a Ford Explorer and they have said the same thing. I don-??t even know where to start on why it wouldn-??t work. The problem has been reported and I didn-??t get a warning. It just stopped reading correctly. There-??s nothing on my dashboard, no sign or anything. I am confused.
