Consumer Description

BURNING EXHAUST SMELL ENTERING INTO CABIN OF CAR WHEN CAR IS UNDER HARD ACCELERATION/FULL THROTTLE. ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE WHEN ACCELERATING ONTO A HIGHWAY OR CLIMBING STEEP HILLS. THIS BURNING EXHAUST SMELL MAKES ALL PASSENGERS FEEL SICK BY AFFECTING YOUR RESPIRATORY PASSAGEWAYS LEAVING A LUMP IN YOUR THROAT, BURNING YOUR EYES, GIVING YOU A HEADACHE, AND MAKING YOU FEEL NAUSEOUS. THE RECENT NHTSA INVESTIGATION INTO 2011-2015 MODELS, SHOULD ALSO INCLUDE 2016 MODELS AS WELL. FORD HAS FAILED TO RECOGNIZE THIS PROBLEM AND HAS TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO "FIX" MY 2016 FORD EXPLORER. NO RESOLUTION HAS BEEN FOUND AND THEY HAVE REFUSED SO FAR TO TAKE THE CAR BACK.
