problem #1

Aug 022012

Explorer Eddie Bauer 4.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,149 miles

The last and final problem I have encountered with my 2006 Ford Explorer within the first year of ownership is the Front Sway Bar Bushings leaking! Again thankfully for the extended warranty this did not cost me anything, but when do the problems stop with this thing? I have ALWAYS driven Fords, but if this is what has become of the FORD Company it will be my LAST! Especially after reading all of the other complaints, sure wish I would have found this website a year ago, but like all of you I didn't. I have had MAJOR problems to include, 4x4 module, coolant problems (radiator, thermostat housing), transmission problems, suspension problems. This afternoon I call Ford Customer Care #800-392-3675 to lodge a formal complain as so many of you have done and was told the same thing,,,not enough complaints to issue a recall, blah, blah, blah...but they sure are sorry for all of my issues...but at least they have mine!

One more thing...sure hope someone files a class action lawsuit...I'M IN!!!
