The contact owns a 2018 Ford Explorer. While driving at an unknown speed, there was a sulfur odor coming through the air vents in the vehicle. The failure caused the contact to become nauseous and dizzy. The contact was concerned for her safety. Winner Ford (250 haddonfield-berlin rd, cherry hill, NJ, (856) 428-4000) diagnosed that the sulfur odor was coming from the exhaust and the catalytic converter. The dealer informed the contact that the vehicle was operating normally. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and opened a case. The failure mileage was 3,500.
