Consumer Description
EXHAUST FUMES COMING IN THROUGH A/C VENT UPON RAPID ACCELERATION. HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE FIRST PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN 2014. FORD HAS TRIED TO REPAIR PROBLEM FOUR TIMES AND IT IS STILL NOT FIXED. IT IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT FORD HAS NOT ADDRESS SINCE 2011 WHEN THIS MODEL FIRST CAME OUT AND STILL ARE PRODUCING THE VEHICLE WITH SAME DESIGN. THE REASON WHY THE FORD EXPLORER POLICE CARS HAVE MORE ISSUES IS NOT BECAUSE OF ALTERATION WITH THE VEHICLES IT IS BECAUSE THEY DRIVE THE VEHICLES FASTER AND THE HARDER YOU PUSH THE VEHICLE THE MORE YOU WILL NOTICE THE EXHAUST FUMES. THAT'S WHY THERE HAVE BEEN MORE ISSUE'S WITH FORD EXPLORER OLICE VEHICLES. THE ISSUE HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. THE VEHICLES NEED TO BE RECALLED BEFORE MORE PEOPLE GET HURT.
