Consumer Description

JUST RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2019 FORD EXPLORER LIMITED. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND ALMOST NEARLY BEING SIDE SWIPED BY A BIG RIG WHO APPARENTLY DID NOT SEE ME OR HEAR MY HORN. I THEN PULLED OVER NEAREST EXIT AND PRESSED MY HORN TO HEAR THAT IT WAS LOW SOUNDING. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS DEFECTIVE OR A RECALL ON HORNS. I SEARCHED ONLINE TO FIND OUT THAT FORD HAS ONLY INSTALLED 1 HORN FOR THIS YEAR MODEL. NOT SURE IF ITS TO BE CHEAP OR BY MISTAKE, BUT I HAVE READ MANY REVIEWS THAT THERE'S ONLY 1 HORN INSTALLED WHEN ALL PREVIOUS YEARS HAVE 2 HORNS INSTALLED. THERE ALSO HAS BEEN VIDEOS MADE ON YOUTUBE REGARDING CONCERNS OF THESE 2019 FORD EXPLORERS. I TRULY BELIEVE THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE.
