2014 FORD EXPLORER Unknown Or Other Problems

THE RECALL 19S17 (NHTSA 19V-435) AFFECT THE REAR SUSPENSION .WE BRING IN THE CAR TODAY AND THEY REPLACE THE BAD PARTS . NOW FORD SERVICE IS TELLING ME THAT IT AFFECT MY MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION MOUNTS BUT I HAVE TO PAY $900 TO REPLACE THOSE . VEHICLE IS VIBRATING AND SHAKING OVER 70MPH . THE MOUNTS ARE HERE TO MINIMISE THE VIBRATION DUE TO ROAD DEFECTED , IF THE SUSPENSION DON'T DO ITS WORK , AND IT WASN'T BECAUSE OF THE RECALL ... VEHICLE IS ONLY 90K MILES

MY ALARM WILL GO OFF AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN IT'S SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY. MY KEYS WOULD BE HANGING UP OR ON THE KITCHEN TABLE NO WE'RE NEAR ANYONE AN MY ALARM WILL JUST GO OFF.

I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 60MPH WHEN I HEARD SOMETHING TAPPING MY PASSENGER WINDOW. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS SO I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED ONLY TO FIND THE WINDSHIELD TRIM MOLDING SEPARATED FROM THE WINDSHIELD WINDOW. I WAS ABLE TO RETRIEVE THE MOLDING. THIS WAS BACK IN JUNE. I CONTACTED FORD DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE $250 AND IT WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I CALLED FORD TO COMPLAINT AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL BACK, THEY NEVER DID. TODAY I WAS DRIVING AT 65MPH IN THE EXPRESSWAY AND I HEARD A WEIRD SOUND, LIKE SOMETHING DETACHING MY VEHICLE. NOW THE LEFT ONE FLEW OFF.

ON SUNDAY SEPTERMBER 1ST WHILE I WAS DRIVING BACK HOME A LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD CAME ON, IT SAID "ENGINE COOLANT OVER TEMPERATURE" IN RED LIGHT. I WAS SCARE BECAUSE I WAS STUCK IN THE FREEWAY AND I WAS STILL FAR AWAY FROM HIM AND MY KIDS WERE IN THE BACK. I DROVE VERY SLOW AND MANAGED TO GET HOME. ON TUESDAY I TOOK MY CAR TO THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO REPLACE MY WATER PUMP, AND IT WAS A HARD AND LONG SERVICE AND THAT IT WAS GOING TO COST ME $3,300. I AM SURPRISE OF HOW MUCH THAT COSTS, ESPECIALLY THAT IT HAPPENED ON MY 2014 FORD EXPLORER. I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW AND I'VE BEEN TAKING IT TO FORD DEALERSHIP EVERY 7,000 MILES TO GET THE MAINTENANCE. PLUS, THE LAST TIME THAT I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ITS...

THE AIR CONDITION CAME ON BY ITSELF AND WONT GO OFF IT'S ON FULL BLASS. I TURNED THE TRUCK OFF WAITED AND STARTED IT UP AGAIN. STILL WONT GO OFF.

THE APIN (NAVIGATION/DISPLAY) SYSTEM ON THIS VEHICLE CONSTANTLY BLANKS OUT SO YOU LOOSE ALL SAFTEY INFORMATION. GPS CONSTANTLY GOES OFF COURSE MEANING YOUR DRIVING DOWN A ROAD AND IT HAS YOU FLOATING OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD HALF A MILE AWAY AND 1/3 MILE BEHIND OR AHEAD OF YOUR LOCATION. THIS CAUSES NUMEROUS RE-ROUTES INCLUDING THOSE THAT MIGHT NOT BE SAFE TO CONDUCT. THE HEADS UP DISPLAY SYSTEM CONSTANTLY BLANKS OUT AND RESETS LOOSING ALL SAFTEY INFORMATION, SOMETIMES IT STAYS BLANK A LONG TIME. FORD HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR APIN SYSTEM THEY KNOW IS FAULTY TO 5 YEARS I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO SERVICE BOTH UNDER WARRANTY I PAID DEDUCTIBLE FOR AS WELL AS IN 2018 TO HAVE IT REPAIRED; THEY APPLIED THE SAME UPDATES OVER AND OVER AND REFUSED TO REPLACE THE FAULTY APIN SYSTEM. FORD NOW REFUSES TO ASSIST AND I FEEL THIS IS MAJOR...

WHEN SUDDENLY ACCELERATING TO SPEED OVER 65 MPH , EXHAUST GAS/FUMES ENTER THE MAIN CABIN, AND LINGER FOR SOMETIME, UNTIL I OPEN ALL WINDOWS TO DISSIPATE THE FUMES. THIS ISSUE ALWAYS OCCUR DURING SUDDEN ACCELERATION. I HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY INSTALLED EXTERNAL SEALS BUT ISSUE CONTINUES, EVEN AFTER THE FIXES.

TOUCH SCREEN (BACK UP CAMERA, MUSIC, CLIMATE CONTROL, ETC) SOMETIMES DOES NOT TURN ON WHEN TURNING ON THE VEHICLE. IT CONTINUES TO REMAIN OFF, SHOWING ONLY THE WORD 'FORD'. EVENTUALLY (AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF DRIVING) THE SCREEN TURNS BLACK AND THEN IT TURNS ON.

DURING ACCELERATION EXTREMELY STRONG SMELL OF EXHAUST FUMES CAN BE DETECTED BY PASSENGERS SEATED IN BACK AND MIDDLE ROW OF VEHICLE. DURING ALL OTHER TIMES LESSER AMOUNTS OF EXHAUST FUMES ARE PRESENT WITHIN THE VEHICLE. THESE FUMES ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO MAKE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE NAUSEOUS DURING LONG TRIPS. EVEN THOUGH FORD HAS SENT MULTIPLE NOTIFICATIONS CONCERNING THIS AND INDICATING THEY WILL TAKE SMALL ACTIONS AGAINST THIS WHEN WE ARRIVE AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS THEY DENY ANY KNOWLEDGE AND REFUSE TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM.

FUEL SMELL/FUMES ENTERING PASSENGER CABIN WHEN AC/HEAT IS ON. SOMETIMES AT A STOP OR SLOW PACE AND WINDOWS ARE OPEN FUMES OR SMELL IS APPARENT. ONCE PARKED YOU CAN SMELL FROM THE FRONT PART OF THE VEHICLE IN THE HOOD NEAR THE WIPER BLADES.

TRUNK CANNOT OPEN

I KEEP GETTING DROWSY ON LONG DRIVES. MY EYES GET IRRITATED. I HAVE FINALLY PURCHASES A CO MONITOR THAT CAN DOWNLOAD DATA. THE SPIKE OF 61 PPM OCCURRED WHEN I WAS ACCELERATING TO GO OVER BATH MOUNTAIN HEADED EAST ON 17 FEB. THE AUDIBLE ALARM WENT OFF SO I KNEW I HAD A PROBLEM. THE ALARM GOES OFF AT 50PPM. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO FORD OVER 20 TIMES, ALL THEY DO IS MAKE CHANGES TO THE EXHAUST IN THE REAR. THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS AN EXHAUST LEAK THAT IS ENTERING THE CABIN IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE!

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, AND AT ABOUT 70 MPH THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDSHIELD TRIM RIPPED OFF AND LANDED ON THE HIGHWAY. WE ARE NOW MISSING THE TRIM PIECE AND WEATHER STRIPPING UNDER IT. THE OTHER TRIM PIECE ON THE DRIVER SIDE IS LOOSE AS WELL. TERRIBLE DESIGN FLAW!!!

EXPERIENCED FEELING DIZZY WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS FATIGUE OFTEN. I CANNOT DRIVE FAR WITHOUT RISKING OUR FAMILY'S HEALTH AND SAFETY. I WORRY THIS IS FROM THE CO IN THE CAR. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR YEARS, BUT NEVER THOUGHT IT WAS FROM THE CARBON MONOXIDE. WON'T FORD FIX THIS?

EVERY TIME WE DRIVE OUR 2014 FORD EXPLORER AND TURN ON THE AIR CONDITIONER OR HEATER WE SMELL A ROTTEN EGG TYPE OF ODOR AND IT MAKES MY WIFE AND CHILD ALL NAUSEATED AND GIVES US HEADACHES SOMETIMES. MANY PEOPLE HAVE MENTIONED IT TO US AS WELL WHEN THEY ARE DRIVING WITH US. IT HAPPENS WHEN WE ARE PARKED, DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND JUST A CITY STREET.

EXHAUST SMELL IN VEHICLE

IN JUNE OF 2015 FORD ISSUED A TSB 15-0113 ABOUT A DEFECT WITH THE SECOND ROW INFLATABLE SEAT BELT SYSTEM THAT WOULD EXHIBIT AN AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT. THIS CONDITION RENDERS ALL AIRBAGS INOPERABLE, NOT JUST THE SEAT THAT IS EFFECTED. ON 12/29/2018 I TOOK SAID VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASH. A $54 PART WAS INSTALLED AT A LABOR COST OF $650 TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IF YOU NOTE FIGURE 1 OF THE TSB THE WIRE HARNESS WRAPS AROUND A SEAT SUPPORT AND THE FIX SHOWN IN FIGURE 2 OF THE SAME TSB ELIMINATES THAT WRAP THAT WHICH CAUSES THE WIRE TO GET PINCHED AND SEVERED. TSB 16-0001 WAS ISSUED IN JANUARY 2016 SUPERSEDING THE PREVIOUS TSB. PASSENGER SAFETY IS EXTREMELY CRITICAL AND I'M WONDERING WHY YOUR ORGANIZATION DID NOT GET INVOLVED, AS PASSENGER SAFETY IS ONE OF YOUR MAJOR CONCERNS OR FORD...

WHILE DRIVING THE INTERSTATE, MY WINDSHIELD TRIM STARTED TO PEEL AWAY, STRIKING THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW AS IT GOT WORSE. I CHOSE NOT TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE FOR SAFETY REASONS AND BY THE TIME I ARRIVED AT THE NEAREST REST AREA, 8-10" OF THE TRIM HAD COME LOOSE. AS I WAS STILL 60 MILES FROM HOME, I CHOSE TO TUCK THE TRIM INTO THE DOOR AND CLOSE IT, WHICH KEPT IT FROM TEARING AWAY ANYMORE. THE NEXT DAY, THE PIECES HAD JUST FALLEN OFF INTO MY DRIVEWAY. I'M SHOCKED THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S HAPPENING TO VEHICLES LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD - MINE IS ONLY 4. I'M JUST HAPPY THAT THE WHOLE THING DIDN'T TEAR AWAY (AS IN OTHERS REPORTED ON THE INTERNET) HITTING SOMEONE OR SOMETHING AND CAUSING DAMAGE. THE COST TO REPAIR IS $265 PER SIDE - NOT COVERED BY FORD. I CALLED...

WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED BUT RUNNING THERE IS A GAS SMELL THAT COMES INTO THE CAR BUT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME NOR DOES IT LINGER FOR VERY LONG AFTER CONTINUING TO DRIVE AGAIN.

HEAVY SMELL OF EXHAUST IN THE SUV WHILE DRIVING CARBON DIOXIDE IS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. DRIVING IT MAKES ME FEEL SICK/LIGHT HEADED....

WE ARE EXPERIENCING ABNORMAL AND EXTENSIVE EXHAUST FUMES IN THE CAB. WE HAD A LOCAL DEALER PERFORM THE NO CHARGE SERVICE OFFER BY FORD TO SEAL THE CABIN AND REPROGRAM THE AIR CONDITIONER BUT WE SOON REALIZED THIS DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WE SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE INSPECTED AGAIN. WE RECEIVED A MESSAGE (WE HAVE A RECORDING) FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT MANAGER THAT THERE WAS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE OF EXHAUST BEING PULLED INTO THE CABIN THAT THEY COULD NOT EXPLAIN. THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL FORD FOR DIRECTION. THEY THEN CONTACTED US TO SAY THAT FORD TOLD THEM THIS IS NORMAL WHICH IS A CLEAR CONTRADICTION THAT IS HARD TO ACCEPT AS A CONCLUSION. MY WIFE WILL NO LONGER RIDE IN THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE SERIOUS AFFECTS FROM THE INTENSE FUMES DURING ACCELERATION. SHOULD I SEEK LEGAL REPRESENTATION? THERE IS A DEFINITE DISCREPANCY IN THE RESPONSE FROM...

EXHAUST FUMES IN CABIN AREA, AFTER TAKING IT TO FORD DEALER FOR THEIR "UPDATE" THIS HAPPENS UNDER MODERATE ACCELERATION, HAS A NASTY ODOR AND HAS CAUSED ME TO HAVE A HEADACHE AT TIMES

AFTER ACCELERATING TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS I GET EXHAUST ODORS. MUST NOTICED WHEN REAR AC IS ON.

I NOTICED THE RUBBER STRIPPING ALONG THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY WINDSHIELD CAME LOOSE WHILE TRAVELING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY AND TORE AWAY. AFTER THAT, MY RIGHT SIDE WINDSHIELD PANEL (PILLAR) CAME DETACHED AND FLEW AWAY WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY.

WHEN PLACED IN "PARK" IT DOESN'T REGISTER SOMETIMES. I HAVE TO FIDDLE WITH IT TO GET IT TO REGISTER THAT IT IS IN FACT IN PARK. OTHERWISE MY CAR BATTERY WILL DRAIN BECAUSE IT KEEPS THE POWER ON.

SINCE THE EXPLORER WAS PURCHASED NEW IN 2014, WE HAVE EXPERIENCED STRONG EXHAUST FUMES IN THE CABIN AREA AFTER ACCELERATION IN EXCESS OF 3000 RPMS. OVER A YEAR AGO, DURING A ROUTINE SERVICE VISIT TO A FORD DEALERSHIP, THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED US THAT FORD WAS RECOMMENDING A SOLUTION INVOLVING PLACING "PATCHES" OM THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. WE AGREED FOR THE PROCEDURE TO BE DONE AND AFTER THAT DID NOT EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM AGAIN UNTIL THE LAST TWO MONTHS. IF BEFORE ACCELERATING, THE VENT AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM IS COMPLETELY SHUT OFF UNTIL ACCELERATION IS COMPLETED AND APPROXIMATELY 5 MILES HAVE BEEN TRAVELED, THE ODOR IS NOT DETECTED. WE HAVE DESCRIBED THE REOCCURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE CHECKED THE PATCHES AND REPORTED THAT THEY ARE STILL INTACT. THEY CANNOT OFFER ANY OTHER SOLUTION AND WE FEAR THAT THE FUMES MAY BE HAZARDOUS TO OUR HEALTH, AS...

WE JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND TOOK IT ON A ROAD TRIP WHEN DRIVING WE SMELT STRONG EXHAUST ODORS MORE SO WHEN ACCELERATING. WE DIDNT THINK ANYTHING OF IT UNTIL WE STARTED GETTING HEADACHES AND OUR 2 CHILDREN WERE COMPLAINING OF NAUSEA AND DIZZINESS AN LATER ON STARTED THROWING UP. OUR RETURN TRIP HOME WE DROVE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN AS TO KEEP FRESH AIR IN THE CABIN. WE PARKED THE VEHICLE AND FOUND THERE WAS ALOT OF OTHER PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE SO WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FROM AND ARE AWAITING TO HEAR BACK ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.

WHEN SHIFTING THE CAR INTO PARK IT TAKES MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS FOR IT TO LOCK IN PARK AND SAFELY PARK THE VEHICLE. IN RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM I'VE DISCOVERED THAT THERE ARE 100'S HAVING THIS ISSUE, AND AT $1300, TO REPAIR,WHY ISN'T IT RECALLED?

MY WIFE AND KIDS COMPLAIN OF HEADACHE'S AND NAUSEA AFTER PROLONGED TIME TRAVELING IN SAID VEHICLE. SMELL OF EXHAUST TYPE FUMES WITHIN THE CABIN AREA.

MY HUSBAND, SON AND MYSELF WERE DRIVING FROM HIGH POINT NC TO WINSTON SALEM NC ABOUT 30 MINUTES DRIVE, BEFORE ARRIVE TO OUR DESTINATION WE HAVE TO STOP ALMOS IN THE MIDDLE OF A ROAD BECAUSE WE WERE FEELING SHORT OF AIR ALMOST UNABLE TO BREATH AND FEELING CHEST SUPPRESSION AND NAUSEA OUR SON GIVE COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SMELL IN THE BACK SEAT BUT I WAS UNABLE TO FEEL IT DUE TO STUFF NOSE. MY HUSBAND HAD TO DRINK TWO BOTTLES OF WATER AND WE GOT OFF THE VEHICLE LIVING ALL DOORS OPEN, THE ODOR WAS VERY STRONG. IN MAY 15 2018 WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHEN WE LEARNED ABOUT THE CARBON MONOXIDE RECALL THEY SAY THEY MADE THE REPAIR AND TODAY MAY 23 WE ALMOST CRASH. I THANKS GOD WE STOPPED AND GOT OFF THE CAR.

I PURCHASED AN USED 2014 EXPLORER AND BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH A GAS ODOR. I WAS NEVER INFORMED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. UPON RECEIVING A RECALL I THEN BECAME AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. I BROUGHT IT IN AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY CORRECTED IT. NOW IT IS WORST. I WILL BRING IN AGAIN TO FIX THE SMELL. MY 11 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER SUFFERS FROM MIGRAINES AND WAS PLACED ON ADULT MIGRAINE PREVENTATIVE. MY FIANCE HAS BREATHING ISSUES AND NOW USES INHALERS. I BELIEVE THE EXHAUST FUMES IS THE CAUSE OF THE MEDICAL ISSUES.

12 APRIL 2018 ACCELERATING UP HILL AC ON. 80 DEGREES OUTSIDE . NO OTHER PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS SHIFTING AROUND 5000 ROM, IN AUTOMATIC, NOT MANUAL. AGAIN I SMELLED A SULFURRY PROPANISH IDOR. IT LASTED ABOUT 2 MINUTES. I HAVE HAD ALL RECALLS / SERVICE BULLETINS PERFORMED BY MY DEALER. I HAVE INFORMED MY DEALER. HELP BEFORE FORD KILLS ME! THERE IS EXHAUST GETTING INTO THE PASSENGER CABIN!!!

"DRIVER SIDE DOOR AJAR" LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON EACH TIME I START THE CAR. I HAVE TO OPEN AND SHUT THE DOOR TO GET IT TO TURN OFF. THAT OCCURRED FOR ONE MONTH. NOW THE LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF AND THE "TRANSMISSION IS NOT IN PARK" LIGHT TURNS ON WHILE I AM DRIVING. IN ADDITION, THE DOME LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF WHEN I PARK THE CAR UNLESS I CONSTANTLY ADJUST THE LIGHT DIAL AND EVENTUALLY THE DOME LIGHT WILL GO OFF WHEN THE DOORS ARE LOCKED (30 MINUTES TO GET IT OFF THE OTHER NIGHT). REGARDING THE REAR TRANSMISSION NOISE. OVER 50 PERCENT OF THE TIME WHEN I AM BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT, I HEAR A CLUNKING SOUND AS THOUGH I STRUCK AN OBJECT ONLY TO FIND THAT NOTHING IS BEHIND ME. FINALLY, WHEN I ENTER MY CAR AND START IT, I HEAR A LOUD...

AFTER SEVERAL LONG TRIPS WITH THE 2014 FORD EXPLORER SPORT, I HAVE HAD THE FEELING OF BEING ILL. SPECIFICALLY, HEADACHE, VERY WEAK, LIGHTHEADED AND NAUSEOUS. HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR.

THE SMELL OF EXHAUST WAS OVERWHELMING AND FINALLY A "FIX" WAS GENERATED. THE FIX IS WORSE THAN THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM. NOW THERE IS AN EXTREMELY STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE THAT FLOODS THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THIS OCCURS WHEN IN IDLE, WHEN DRIVING, WHEN OTHER CARS ARE AROUND OR IF I AM THE ONLY CAR IN THE LOT. OFTEN I NOTICE WHEN THE HEATING SYSTEM IS ON.

PURCHASED IN AUG 2017, RECEIVED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION LETTER REGARDING CARBON MONOXIDE. TOOK LAST MONTH TO FORD DEALER FOR FIX AND THE EXHAUST FUMES ARE NOW WORSE. I HAVE TO DETECTORS IN THE CAR THAT BOTH ARE ALARMING AFTER DRIVING ONLY A FEW MINS, MY ENTIRE FAMILY HAS ONSET OF HEADACHE IF WE RIDE IN THE CAR, I HAVE TO ROLL DOWN ALL THE WINDOWS. FORD STATES THEY FIXED THE ISSUE BUT IT'S WORSE NOW TO ME. IT SMELLS LIKE A LAWN MOWER ON SIDE CABIN OF THE EXPLORER

WHEN PUTTING THE SHIFTER INTO PARK A WARNING LIGHT COMES ON THAT SAYS TRANSMISSION NOT IN PARK. YOU NEED TO WIGGLE THE SHIFTER TO GET THE WARNING LIGHT TO GO AWAY AND ACTUALLY ENGAGE IN PARK. I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER AND FOUND OUT THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY IS FAULTY AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A $500 REPAIR ON A CAR THAT ONLY HAS 33000 MILES ON IT. I'M AFRAID IF I DON'T REPLACE IT I WILL BE STRANDED SOMEPLACE BECAUSE I WON'T BE ABLE TO START IT IF IT WON'T CONNECT WITH THE COMPUTER SAYING IT IS IN DRIVE. I FEEL THIS A FAULTY PART FROM FORD . THIS JUST SEEMS LIKE AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR FOR A VEHICLE WITH SUCH FEW MILES ON IT. OF COURSE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY.

AFTER DRIVING AND VEHICLE IS TO RUNNING TEMPERATURE WHEN YOU STOP OR ARE IDLE SMELL OF EXHAUST TYPE FUMES ENTER CABIN OF CAR. HAVE BEEN TO DEALER TWICE AND NOT SURE PROBLEM IS FIXED. PROBLEM STARTED AT 38,000 MILES. CAN HARDLY BREATH WHEN OCCURS AND HAVE TO OPEN WINDOW. FEEL NEED TO REPORT BECAUSE CONCERNED FOR CO2 SAFETY. ORDERED CO2 SENSOR FOR CAR FOR SAFETY. PLEASE MAKE FORD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

SMELL EXHAUST IN CABIN UNDER ACCELERATION WITH HVAC SYSTEM ON ESPECIALLY IN RECIRCULATE MODE. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES WITH THE CURRENT SERVICE BULLETINS PERFORMED AND CAN STILL SMELL EXHAUST IN THE CABIN. THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN FIRST REPORTED AND THE ISSUE NOT RESOLVED AND FORD SAYS THAT'S ALL THEY CAN DO.

THE SMELL OF EXHAUST FUMES IN THE VEHICLE WITH WINDOWS CLOSED UNDER MANY SPEEDS. THIS IS CAUSING HEADACHES AND DIZZINESS. INITIAL COMPLAINTS TO FORD DEALER LAST YEAR MENTIONED THERE WAS NO RECALL OR BULLETIN. LATER IN THE YEAR I RECEIVED A BULLETIN FOR REPAIR. THIS WAS COMPLETED YESTERDAY 1/24/18. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR EXHAUSTE SMELL, BUT STILL HAVE MAJOR HEALTH CONCERNS.

A NOXIOUS ODOR RESEMBLING EXHAUST FILLS THE CAB OF THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY, BUT NOT CONTINUOUSLY ON EVERY DRIVE. THE ODOR IS MORE NOTICEABLE AT IDLE OR STOP. THE ODOR SEEMS TO COME FROM THE HEATER/AC VENTS WHILE THEY ARE BLOWING AIR. THE PROBLEM HAS ONLY BEEN NOTED WITH THE HEATER OR AIR VENTS BLOWING AS AC HAS NOT BEEN USED THIS TIME OF SEASON. ON OCCASION, WE HAVE FELT ILL AFTER DRIVING (2 ADULTS IN THEIR MID 40'S, 2 CHILDREN AGES 6 AND 10). THE LOCAL FORD DEALER HAS PERFORMED THE 'CUSTOMER SATISFACTION/RECALL' WORK ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WITH NO IMPROVEMENT IN SYMPTOMS. THEY HAVE EXAMINED THE CAR SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO LOCATE A CAUSE OR SOURCE OF THE SMELL. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED USED 1.5 YEARS AGO FROM DEALER (NOT CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED). THE PROBLEM WITH THE EXHAUST ODOR WAS NOT NOTED UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO,...

BASICALLY I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH THE EXHAUST. AT DIFFERENT TIMES I HAVE A STRONG EXHAUST SMELL IN THE VEHICLE I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY PROGRAMMED IT TO BLOW OUTSIDE AIR BUT I CAN STILL SMELL THE FUMES

I HAVE A 2014 FORD EXPLORER OR DID !!!! ON 1-18-2018 I PASSED OUT BEFORE BEING INVOLVED IN VERY BAD ACCIDENT ! I WAS DRIVING TO WORK BRIGHT SUNNY DAY . PASSED OUT WENT THRU STOP SIGN A WORK TRUCK HIT MY SUV SPUN IT AROUND ! I RECALL NOTHING OTHER THAN DRIVING THEN WAKING UP TO MY GPS SAYING I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND IF I NEEDED 911. I DON'T DRINK DON'T DO DRUGS . 35 AND HEALTHY / MY CAR WENT TO THE FORD DEALER FOR THE RECALL ON THE C02 LEAKS AND DOOR PANEL . I MADE THE APPT A WEEK PRIOR THE END OF THE DAY NOTHING WAS REPAIRED THEY SENT ME THE RECALL LETTER AND FIXED NOTHING! THEY DIDN'T EVEN CHECK TO SEE IF MY VEHICLE WAS AT RISK ! I KNOW THERE ARE TIMES THEY CAN CHECK TO SEE IF MY CAR...

EXHAUST ODOR UNDER ACCELERATION, REGULARLY

CARBON MONOXIDE SMELL WHEN ACCELERATING.

THE DEALER HAD TO REPLACE THE CRACKED EXHAUST, MANIFOLD/CARALYTIC CONVERTER ASMY. I WAS TOLD THAT IF THIS WAS NOT CORRECTED FUMES COULD GET INTO THE CAR. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM FORD IS HAVING WITH THE POLICE EXPLORERS. I HAVE HEARD THAT FORD IS PAYING TO HAVE THESE REPAIR. I WROTE TO FORD AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR THIS. FORD STATES "THER ARE NO WARRANTIES IN EFFECT THAT WOULD PROVIDE ASSISTANCE FOR YOUR CONCERN" (MARSHA BOYD).. WHY ARE THE POLICE VEHICLES BEING REPAIR?

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED USED ON OCTOBER 19TH. PROMPTLY AFTER PURCHASE THE SMELL OF CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES WERE DETECTED IN THE VEHICLE. WITH THE USE OF A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR THE PRESENCE OF CARBON MONOXIDE WAS CONFIRMED AND THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED. WE WERE TOLD THAT FORD WAS WORKING ON A SOLUTION. DURING A FOLLOW UP CALL ON THE FIRST OF NOVEMBER WE WERE TOLD THAT THE DEALER HAD NOT BEEN PROVIDED GUIDANCE FOR A REPAIR. IN A FOLLOW UP CALL ON DECEMBER 8TH, WE WERE SCHEDULED FOR SERVICES ON DECEMBER 15TH. THE REPAIR WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. CURRENT CARBON MONOXIDE CONTINUES TO ENTER THE CABIN WITH LEVELS RECORDED AS HIGH AS 45 PPM WHEN MAX AC IS IN USE.

FOR THE PAST SEVERAL WEEKS BOTH ME AND MY WIFE HAVE NOTICED A WEIRD SMELL COMING FROM THE 2014 FORD EXPLORER THAT WE HAVE. ALSO ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY WIFE HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT FEELING DIZZY AND NAUSEOUS FROM DRIVING BUT WE THOUGHT IT WAS NOTHING SERIOUS. THEN ABOUT A WEEK AGO AFTER DRIVING THE EXPLORER HOME FROM WORK MY WIFE BEGAN TO FEEL LIGHTHEADED, NAUSEOUS AND ALMOST PASSED OUT WHILE DRIVING WITH OUR 4 YOUNG KIDS IN THE CAR. WE ENDED UP RUSHING HER TO THE HOSPITAL TO SEE WHAT HE PROBLEM WAS, WHICH WAS THE SAME DAY THAT WE RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE FROM FORD ABOUT CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING THAT WAS HAPPENING IN ALL 2011-2017 FORD EXPLORER MODELS. SO WHILE SHE WAS IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM WE HAD HER BLOOD AND OXYGEN LEVELS CHECKED FOR CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING ESPECIALLY BECAUSE MY WIFE IS STILL BREASTFEEDING OUR 10 MONTHS OLD...

OUR VEHICLE CONTAINS A COMMON BACKUP SENSOR WHICH BEEPS WHEN IT DETECTS SOMEONE BEHIND THE VEHICLE. THE SYSTEM DOESN'T WORK APPROXIMATELY 5% OF THE TIME. MY OWN BROTHER HAS THE SAME YEAR FORD EXPLORER AND HE SAYS THAT HE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. SEVERAL TIMES WE ALMOST STRUCK SOMEONE, INCLUDING A SMALL CHILD, BECAUSE THE SENSOR DID NOT GO OFF. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SO THEY COULDN'T FIX IT. THAT'S RIDICULOUS. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE FOR THEM TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM.

EXHAUST SMELL IN PASSENGER CABIN AFTER HARD ACCELERATION ON HIGHWAY.
