I have a long laundry list of problems with this blanky suv that has only 102k miles. Window motors, rear end(Stu Evans did the job 15 months later is whining, stick the 12/12 where it dont shine), black box, wheel bearings, alternator, leaking on/off sunroof, seatbelts that dont retract, engine pings(Stu Evans said that it is gas here in detroit, i think not), 3 serpentine belts, window wiper motor, hatchback hinges.... I still owe on the car loan.......

Now Mr Ford does this to me this week:
1.Tranny goes, rebuild: $2117
2. just saw that the right rear coil spring is broke (another 200 plus dollars).

Because of this my summer vacation plans are toast.

Mr Ford, thank you for ruining my summer vacation plans for my 7th and 8th grade kids. I am pretty sure you have made a lasting impression on my kids and their friends.

My advice to any 2002 and newer ford explorer owner, dump the car and never buy suv from ford again.
