Consumer Description

I OWN A 2002 FORD EXPLORER AND HAVE HAD A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH CHECK LIGHTS COMING ON. FIRST IT WAS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WHICH READ THAT VEHICLE NEEDED NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER .THEN COUPLE YRS LATER CAME ON AGAIN THIS TIME FOR A SENSOR. NOW I HAVE A AIRBAG LIGHT ON IT SEEMS LIKE ONE SENSOR AFTER ANOTHER. AFTER READING VERY SIMMILER COMPLAINTS ON YOUR SITE AND OTHERS I THINK THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT FURTHER. NO EXACT EVENTS LEAD TO THE PROBLEM. ALL PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN FIXED EXCEPT AIRBAG LIGHT WHICH JUST HAPPEND THIS WEEK. *AK
