NHTSA Complaint #11585288 — 2016 FORD EXPLORER

Vehicle: 2016 Ford Explorer Sport Mileage: 93,000 Complaint: I am reporting recurring turbocharger failures in my 2016 Ford Explorer Sport. The first failure occurred at 50,000 miles and was covered under warranty. The vehicle is now experiencing the same issue at 93,000 miles. Ford Customer Service has denied assistance, and a Ford dealership quoted a $5,500 repair cost. I believe this premature and repeated turbocharger failure suggests a possible design flaw in the 2016 Ford Explorer Sport's EcoBoost engine. This issue has caused significant financial hardship and raises safety concerns. Request: I urge the NHTSA to investigate potential design defects with the turbocharger system in 2016 Ford Explorer Sport models. I also request that the NHTSA review Ford's handling of customer complaints regarding this issue.
