Consumer Description
THIS IS A BRAND NEW EXPLORER 2017 WITH LESS THAN 700 MILES. I HAD TWO PROBLEMS; THE FIRST ONE IS SERIOUS. 1)THIS HAPPENED WITH ME TWICE; WHERE THERE WAS A FUEL LEAKING FROM THE CAR TO THE GROUND WHEN I FILLED THE CAR. I BELIEVE THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND NOT SAFE TO DRIVE WITH A FULL TANK. I BELIEVE THAT IF THE CAR ROLES OVER IN AN ACCIDENT IT IS GOING TO CATCH FIRE I WILL TRY TO GO TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. 2) THE GAS MILEAGE IN THIS CAR IS VERY DISAPPOINTING. THE MANUFACTURER CLAIMED THAT MPG IS 16/22, BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT IS LESS THAN 13 IN CITY. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED.
