Explorer

  • 200 miles
I have a 2017 Ford Explorer that has a exhaust leak that I smell when I enter the highway. I also smell this odor when I tow my wave runner. The odor is so strong that my son vomited while in the vehicle. I took my 2017 Ford Explorer to the dealer and they told me that they were aware of the problem but can not fix it. This is a brand new vehicle that I cannot drive and Ford does not care. What can I do? I googled this issue to see if anyone else is having this issue and I found that there is a lawsuit against Ford for this same issue with 2011-2015 Ford Explorer. Why is Ford still sending out new vehicles with this same problem. Please help me get my Explorer fixed or replaced. Again I tried to get repaired but they told me that they know there is a problem but cannot fix it. I'm very worried about carbon monoxide poisoning !! please help!!
