problem #3

Explorer XLT 4.0L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 163,000 miles

The Transmission solenoid on my 09 Explorer went out. Apparently this is a common problem with this model. My girlfriend put the car into reverse but it never engaged so the car basically acted like it was in neutral. She rolled backward and hit the car parked behind her. Not happy at all about it
