What Owners Say
"Recall item, which was fixed by the dealer, BUT, we had to wait over 2 years for them to get the part!! They finally fixed it last summer. Faulty rear axle bolt that can fracture... initial fix was to modify the computer chip to put the parking brake on any time the vehicle was in park. Satisfied with the repair, but NOT how long it took since Ford KNEW about this since 2020!"
Anonymous, GA (2021 Ford Explorer XLT 2.3-L 4 Cyl turbo)"There was a recall to correct an issue with the rear axle bolt."
Anonymous A., TX (2021 Ford Explorer XLT 3.0-L V6 turbo)"I had a flat but the spare isnt full size. On the ST you cannot drive on an average size spare. Needs full size spare, but cant accommodate the storage. I had to put it on flatbed to the dealership. Or risk major damage driven on it as it lunges and skips at 5 mph. Put the tie on the rear gate?"
