My 2011 Ford Explorer has been leaking water into everything including the console, seat belts, down the doors and staying inside the doors, into the spare tire storage area, and down all sides of the interior. The water leaks so badly that at times I've had more than an inch of water on the floor boards of my vehicle. The only thing that has permanently stopped working is the motor that controls the moonroof. I have no idea where the water is coming from and this is causing concern as the water is getting into all aspects of my vehicle including electrical areas. My research indicates that it could be many different places but I also seeing 10s of thousands of complaints from Explorer owners about this problem.

I recently purchased this 2011 Ford Explorer. I was driving on the interstate and the suv started feeling like a boat floating in water. The swaying felt like the front and rear suspension was not connected somehow. I immediately removed my foot from the gas and tapped my brakes to slow. It felt as though I would lose control of the vehicle. The swaying wasn-??t noticeable until you reached speeds above 50 initially. The suv would be ok on some days. But I drive and hour to work each way and it-??s highway. Now I am noticing the sway at lower speeds as well. I am having it checked out by an alignment mechanic shop. But since this started, we have seen many things written about this problem in forums and FORD actually had some recalls.

My power steering totally went out. It kept saying power steering fault and just stopped working. Then it started saying something about trac terrain fault or something. I've only had this car since 2018 and then found out today there was a recall on them for power steering. We bought our car in Oklahoma and now live in Alabama. The power steering has been weird on me before but turning off the car and restarting it would fix it, but it has went out saying fault while I was going around a turn and I had to brake quickly, throw on my hazards, turn off the car and restart it. But now nothing is fixing it, I had to tow it to my house from an hour away because I was stuck at work at 1am. I am the only person in my family able to work and work about 52hours a week and don't know I can afford to fix this issue that apparently was known but not fixed in my vehicle before it was sold to me (not your fault, the delearships fault, but they are 10 hours away...)

I have a 2011 Ford Explorer limited, at random times while driving it will make a grinding noise, the vehicle will slow down and then the traction control lights will flash. If the traction control lights stop flashing the vehicle will pick up speed and drive normal but if the traction control light continues to flash for a long time eventually the traction control system will disable and then the warnings lights will say service advance trac and collision warning malfunction warning. If I let the vehicle sit for hours it may reset but it has continued to do so at random times and speed.

After driving for a little while and then stopping at a stop light I smell exhaust coming in through the vent.I only notice it when at a stop.

- Canton, OH, USA

There is a extreme exhaust smell that comes in my truck whenever I turn the heat on. The excessive fumes are causing my children and me to experience dizziness and headaches. The smell only comes in the truck when the heat is on. The smell is still strong even when I crack the windows. It's unbearable at this point and I'm afraid I mat experience an accident, because I'm become so lightheaded. The fumes are still excessive whether the truck is sitting or in motion.

Started the Ford and the backup camera was not functioning. Also noticed the 'sync' screen was blank, climate controls were not visible (functioning) as well as the radio system was not functioning. Went out and started the SUV in my driveway, everything was correct when I returned home the night before.

Strong exhaust smell when you start the car and then again when you accelerate to get on to the highway. Intermittent smell as you are driving. It doesnt matter if you are sitting still or on the highway, you will inevitably smell the exhaust. I have been having health issues with my heart that we now believe are related to the carbon monoxide from these fumes.

"service power steering" warning light came on, code was for left steering control module. One week later, power steering was intermittent, then went out completely. Took in to Ford dealership, code for safety recall 15N01 came up, Ford dealership says my vehicle is covered under recall but Ford Motor Company refuses to fix, stating "no household loyalty", because I've not purchased a Ford brand new. When calling Ford about the issue, they say they "will stand behind the Ford dealerahip in their decision"; yet now that the dealership is ready to fix and waiting for the authorization code from fmc, fmc will not stand behind the dealerships decision.

When we take a drive in our Ford Explorer- our children are getting nausea and vomiting. This has become a constant problem-even on short drives of 30 minutes or less. They complain of headaches as well. We have had to go to the doctors just to get anti nausea medicine hoping it would help, but- it hasn't. there is an emissions problem with our vehicle that is causing major sickness with our young children- ages 11, 8, 7 and 2.

Car turned off as I was slowing down for a traffic light. Panel read " no power to engine" or something to the effect. Was not able to take a photo of panel due to I was caught in traffic with cars behind me.

I have leaks through the seat belts on my third row. My car has a mildew odor from these so it has been happening for a while. I had carmax fix a leak that I noticed in 2016 but now 2 yeats later it is really bad. I looked up online possinle fixes and fou D hundreds of owners with the same issue and no fix. Ford is very difficult to deal with for the repair. Pleas look into this faulty issue and require a welding fix on the seems by Ford. Seems all information I have found with the issue is with the new Explorer body starting with my 2011 year. Leak occurs qhen it rained or when car is washed. It is so much water that we currently can not use the third row seatong as a seat. It is constantly wet.

I was turning out of my alley and the car had no power. When I tried to accelerate nothing happened. I had an orange warning light with a wrench come on the dashboard. I turned the car off and then back on and there was no warning light and no issue with the acceleration. Dealership couldn't find a problem but this issue is all over the internet and there is a recall for it but not for my VIN number or year.

Inside of car fills up with exhaust fumes when driving

- Roscoe, IL, USA

My vehicle produces unbearable smell that gets inside the cabin whenever the RPM reaches 3500 and higher and if the vehicle is in low gear and driving up hill and also when vehicle is idle and you rave up the ngine. The smell that gets inside the cabin could make one pass out unless we roll down the windows completely to let a lot of fresh air inside. I went the dealership which I bought the vehicle from the first month and they inspected the car and got back to me that this issue has been already resolved before I had bought the car and its fixed already but its not I've driving the car now for about 5 months and very cautious with it as whenever the incident happens I feel very dizzy by that smell. So the issue never been fixed as my VIN number does not have a recale when I checked it on the NHTSA amd in order for the issue to be fixed bin has to be recaled like other similar Explorer with the same issue. Most of the older modes of police interceptors Explorer had recalls for same issue. Someone please advice me on how I can go ablut this to get some resolution.

Often when I accelerate quickly, and every time I accelerate when going up hill there is a horrific smell from the exhaust and it fills the inside of the car. This has been going on since I bought the car in the beginning of 2017, and still occurs to today (8/13/18).

While driving I 77 North (mooresville nc to the back side of stone mountain nc) with the air condition on, I started smelling gas fumes coming through the air vents. My son also smelled the gas fumes. We had to turn the ac off and travel with open windows.. the vehicle was parked while we were on vacation. I didn't smell the fumes as we were returning home but also rode with the widows down a bit as well. I however noticed that while I was not driving the vehicle for several days, that my headache was not with me. I have not used the air condition since I have arrived back in town. I have not felt good for months and had a constant headache, blaming it on stress but now feel that it is a strong possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by my vehicle. I will be calling a dealership to inquire if there is a possible problem and hope to get it fixed.
