Consumer Description

I PURCHASED MY 2015 EXPLORER AND AFTER A FEW MONTHS, I STARTED SMELLING STRONG GAS ODOR WHEN ACCELERATING. I TOOK IT IN, THE DEALER COMPLETED A TOTAL EXHAUST REPAIR AND NOW THE SMELL IS WORSE THAN IT WAS BEFORE. THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUES TO TELL ME THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I WAS GETTING SICK FOR TWO MONTHS, HEADACHES,NAUSEA ETC. AFTER GOING TO THE DOCTOR, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS PROBABLY FROM MY VEHICLE. I CANNOT TURN THE FAN/AIR OR HEAT ON DUE TO THE SMELL SO IT IS KEPT OFF FOR MINE AND MY CHILD'S SAKE.
