Ford Explorer Change Vehicle

"Noticed while washing it that the brake rotors were not being scored evenly. Had the brakes checked within the week and found that the brakes were almost gone and that the rotors needed to be replaced. Had also noted that my stopping distance had increased. Don't drive the Explorer a lot except when pulling my boat which puts extra strain on the brakes."

"Brake pads were warped and needed to be replaced."

"Replaced rotors and pads myself. $500 in parts."

"Replaced rotors and pads myself."

"Front rotors and pads wore unevenly. Rear brakes ok"

"caused by the parking break"

"I experienced the problem in 2019 when the Explorer was 9 years old. To my knowledge the rotors had never been replaced before. I believe it was normal wear; especially since I trailer a 3,000 lb. boat with this vehicle."

"Replaced rotors and pads. Routine wear."

"Brakes pads and rotors needed to be replaced"

"Wore unevenly"

"paint does not seem to hold a shine no matter which products I use. it is not garaged and the black has a dull fade along with many minor scratches. The paint will scratch so easily that fingernails grasping the door handles have left terrible scratch marks"

"Paint on roof along the groove on both sides cracked and failed. According to body shop, it is due to expansion and shrinking material along the two grooves for the full length of the vehicle and it is a manufacturer defect"

"front passenger lower door rust, only one. several bolts rusted in tailgate"

"Rust on and around rear tail gate, fender areas"

"Rust along bottom edge of rear door"

"Rust forming in a wheel well"

"Rear hatch door - about 5 spots of early corrosion below paint. Repainted - 50/50 Goodwill split with Ford for the cost, slightly past paint warranty. Due to improper prep of metal before original paint applied??"

"Driver door and front passenger door both whistle when driving on the highway at highway speeds. The hatch window when heavy rain leaks into the inside of the window. Driver rear passenger door has weather-stripping replaced due to leaking during heavy rain."

"Wind shield whistles Passenger door sounds like there is no stripping"

"It seems to get noisier all the time. Guess we need to have it looked at"

"Inside passenger door, remove trim and lubricate to stop"

"noisey ride"

"driver's window does not seal completely and must be opened slightly to reduce wind noise. Other owners of this vehicle report the same problem and solution."

"Since purchased used, there has always been wind noise that seems to originate in the rear of the vehicle"

"Ford extended warranty due to known problem (13N01), confirmed coverage applies, but refused to reimburse for repair expense. The fuel inlet assembly crumbled, leaking gasoline to the environment and damaging the fuel pump and lines. Luckily, the filter protected the injectors and engine"

"The fuel gage sensor is in the fuel tank so they have to remove the rear seat and lots of labor to replace it . About 700.00.. other warning lights come on when there isn’t a problem. Shifter light only works in the day time when head lights are on or off but not at night."

"sensor failed when vehicle had only about 24000 miles on it. Dealer told me it was OK to drive in this condition as it only affected the catalytic converter warming up quickly."

"Own 2 2010 Ford Explores, both have codes reading PO 193 a faulty (bad) fuel rail sensor. Both cut out out while driving and the check engine light stays on. Having to have both repaired."

"Minor external sensor leak"

"My key stuck in the ignition and would not come out. The dealer had to replace the entire shifter stating that the safety devise that prevents you from pulling out the key while the car is in gear had failed. The bill was $600.00!"

"A warning light came on and we were told a solenoid was failing and needed to be replaced to avoid damage to the transmission. The Ford dealership did the repair for $1,100. My Wife purchased a policy to cover repairs when the car was purchased and i"

"Very hard down and up shift"

"More than likely my not understanding how to set it correctly, I'm sure it really works fine which is why I haven't taken it in to get it done. I just use my phone."

"Voice commands ceased to operate so I have to control the system with my iPhone"

"Check engine light on, diagnosed as computer issue, recommend replace computer."

"Temperature gauge indicated overheating"

"This is the second water pump that has been replaced. Apparently the design allows the front panel to vibrate loose. This Ford has the tow package and is used to tow our Recreation trailor. The water pump went out the first time when we were towing and the second when I drove 40 miles to a meeting. No overheating until the car just stops."

"We had to buy a replacement tailgate and latch Could not buy new With paint, R&R was very expensive"

"Tailgate pops open for no reason about once per month"

"Warning lights come on when there isn’t a problem. Shifter light only works in day time with the head lights on or off but does not work at night when I need to know what gear I’m in."

"rusted shaft, took motor and fixed myself"

"Rear axle seals. Minor leak. Replaced under warranty"

"The transmission was rebuilt in 2014 and then rebuilt again in 2016 and then a new one put in in 2017"
