Consumer Description

I DIDN'T THINK THERE WAS A PROBLEM INITIALLY BUT THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. UNTIL THE CALIFORNIA COURT CASE AGAINST FORD ABOUT THE IGNITION SYSTEM THERE HAS BEEN MULTIPLE REPAIRS FROM THE FUEL FILTER TO THE INJECTORS. ALL OF THIS DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I PLEADE TO FORD THE NHTSA PLEASE RECALL THIS PROBLEM BEFORE PEOPLE GET HURT OR KILLED IN ACCIDENTS. I AM A PROUD FORD OWNER AND LOVE MY EXPLORER PLEASE HELP YOUR LOYAL CUSTOMERS.
