2016 FORD EXPLORER Unknown Or Other Problems

CARBON MONOXIDE POISIONING. LEVEL WAS 7.2 WHEN I WENT TO ER.

STRONG EXHAUST AND VERY HIGH LEVELS OF CO ENTERING CABIN AT NORMAL ACCELERATION, VERY BAD AT HARD ACCELERATION I HAVE MULTIPLE PICTURES OF MY CO SENSOR I HAD IN THE VEHICLE FOR SOME TIME NOW WITH LETHAL CO LEVELS. I BELIEVE THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS HAVE BIG ENOUGH CRACKS TO FLOOD IN CO INTO THE CABIN THROUGH OPENINGS. MINE HAS HAD THE 'DEALER ITSB' TO RESOLVE, NO CHANGE AND IT REGISTERED HIGHER AFTER. REPLACE THIS MANIFOLD AND SEAL THIS TRUCK OR BUY IT BACK FROM ME FORD. IF PUTTING MY FAMILY'S LIFE IN DANGER DAILY DOESN'T SCARE YOU, THE PICTURES AND PROOF I HAVE ARE ENOUGH FOR ANOTHER LAWSUIT AGAINST YOU FOR THIS! I NEED TO BE CONTACTED BY A FORD REP (NOT A DEALERSHIP) TO RESOLVE OR MY LAWYERS WILL FOLLOW UP WITH YOU.

YES EXHAUST IS STILL COMING OUT AFTER REPAIR IN CAR AND CARBON MONOXIDE ALARM WENT OFF IN CAR YEATERDAY

CARBON MONOXIDE RELEASE INTO CAR REMAINS EVEN AFTER DEALER REPAIR

I HAVE 25,000 MILES ON THESE TIRES AND THEY ARE PEELING APART. AT 20,000 I NOTICED IT AND TOOK TO DEALERSHIP. THEY MADE EXCUSES AND SAID I RAN SOMETHING OVER. THERE ARE OTHER RECALLS ON SIMILAR TIRES. THEY ARE LITERALLY PEEKING APART. THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY 2 1/2 YEARS NEW.

OUR VEHICLE HAS 13451 MILES. THE FACTORY TIRES HANKOOK 255/50R20 105H VENTUS S1 NOBLE 2 ARE SCALING ON ALL FOUR TIRES TO A DEGREE.

WHEN CAR DOES A HARD ACCELERATION AN ODD SMELL IS PROJECTED THROUGH THE VEHICLE AND SMELLS LIKE GAS FUMES. WHEN CAR GRADUALLY ACCELERATES THIS ISSUE DOES NOT HAPPEN.

OEM HANKOOK TIRES TIRES HAVE BEGUN DISINTEGRATING AROUND 20K MILES

WHILE GETTING ON THE FREEWAY EMISSIONS COME THRU THE A/C AND AT TIMES THE ENTIRE A/C CUTS OUT AND A BIGGER PUFF OF THESE SAME EMISSIONS COMES OUT AGAIN THRU THE A/C VENTS...A FEW WEEKS AGO IT STARTED A TO HESITATE WHEN LEAVING STOP SIGNS OR LIGHTS...TO THE POINT IT JUST STOPS MOVING AND TAKES SECONDS TO CATCH HOLD .WE HAVE HAD IT IN SERVICE 5 TIMES AND THE DEALERSHIP IS SUBMITTING A CLAIM TO THE FORD TECH FOR AN APPOINTMENT TO EVALUATE THE CAR AND GO FROM THERE WAITING FOR THE CALL NOW...I FEEL VERY THREATENED WITH EMISSIONS IN THE CABIN OF THE CAR . WE HAVE TO LOWER AT LEAST 2 WINDOWS TO BE ABLE TO STAND THE SMELL AND WE FIGURE DANGER LEVEL IS HIGH

I HAVE BEEN GETTING VERY SICK FOR OVER THE PAST YEAR AND RECENTLY REALIZED IT IS WHEN I GO ANYWHERE. NAUSEA, CHILLS, HEADACHE, CONFUSION, WEAKNESS, DIZZINESS.I HAVE A 23 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER IN THE CAR WITH ME WHO WOULD BE AFFECTED BY THIS ALSO. I HAD NO IDEA THAT IT COULD BE THE CAR MAKING US SICK UNTIL WE LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND SAW THERE WAS A CARBON MONOXIDE ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. MY HUSBAND TOOK IT FOR A SHORT DRIVE AND MEASURED THE CARBON MONOXIDE LEVELS. HE TOOK A PICTURE I WILL INCLUDE. I'M SCARED ABOUT THE LONG TERM DAMAGE THIS COULD POTENTIALLY HAVE CAUSED OUR HEALTH. THIS HAPPENS WHEN WE DRIVE THE CAR.

ROTTEN EGG SMELL WHEN VEHICLE IS ACCELERATING UP INCLINE AND AIR UNIT IS ON RECIRCULATE. HAD IN FORD DEALERSHIP BEFORE TO ADDRESS PROBLEM BUT OBVIOUSLY STILL NOT FIXED. DO YOUR JOB AND QUIT TRYING TO PROTECT FORD THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AND YOU KNOW IT. MY WIFE AND KIDS USE THIS CAR AND THEY ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN FORD SAVING A DOLLAR.

EXHAUST SMELL COMES THROUGH AC SYSTEM WHEN ASCENDING UPHILL AT HIGHER RPM. HAD IN SERVICE SHOP BEFORE FOR THIS ISSUE BUT IT STILL EXISTS. TIME FOR YOU GUYS TO MAN UP AND MAKE FORD RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THEIR CRAP CAR.

THE CAR HAD NOT YET HAD THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SERVICE FOR THE PLUGS AND SEALS COMPLETED. I HAD NOT NOTED ANY EXHAUST ODORS IN THE CAR AND HAD NOT PROBLEMS DURING MANY ALL DAY DRIVES. AFTER AN 11 HR DRIVE THIS WEEK WITH THE AC ON THE WHOLE TIME (NOT ON RECIRCULATING), I HAD MANY SYMPTOMS OF CO EXPOSURE (HEADACHE, DIZZY, NAUSEA) AND ALL 3 OF MY DOGS WER AFFECTED (POOR APPETITE, LETHARGIC). ONE OUT OF THE CAR I'M FRESH AIR FOR SEVERAL HOURS, THE SYMPTOMS SLOWLY DISSIPATED. WISH I HAD HAD A CO METER IN THE CAR. I HAD MILDER SYMPTOMS ON SEVERAL TRIPS (4-7HRS DRIVING IN ONE DAY) IN THE WEEKS BEFORE THIS LONGER TRIP. THESE WERE ALL HIGHWAY DRIVING AND CAR DID NOT IDLE WHILE SITTING.

PAINT STARTS TO BULDGE AND FLAKES. STRONG SMELL OF CARBON MONOXIDE INSIDE THE CABIN WHILE DRIVING.

ORIGINAL HANKOOK FRONT TIRES WERE REPLACED AT ABOUT 10K MILES DUE TO PREMATURE WEAR AND CHUNK OF TIRES PEELING OFF. DEALER STATED THAT IT WAS DUE TO POOR ALIGNMENT. I PAID FOR 2 NEW TIRES. FORD EVENTUALLY REIMBURSED US FOR ONE OF THEM. NOW, 8K MILES LATER THE TIRES ARE JUST AS BAD AS THE ONES THAT WERE REPLACED. THE REAR ONES ARE ALMOST SMOOTH. HANKOOK IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE INSTRUCTED THE DEALERS TO REPLACE THEM WITH A DIFFERENT MODEL YET MY DEALER WILL NOT DO IT.

I HAVE BEEN SMELLING A HORRIBLE ODOR THAT SMELLS LIKE NATURAL GAS/FUMES IN THE CAR TO THE POINT IT MAKES ME SICK AND GIVES ME HEADACHES. I ALSO HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD AND CAN'T HAVE HER IN THE CAR EITHER. I TOOK IT INTO FORD 2 DIFFERENT TIMES AND THEY HAVE HAD IT 2 WEEKS AND STILL HAS NOT FIXED IT. IT IS HEADING BACK IN AGAIN TOMORROW. THE FIRST TIME WE NOTICED THE SMELL IN THE CAR, IT WAS FROM CRANKING IT UP AND JUST GOING FLAT DOWN THE ROAD. ALSO, WHILE GOING UP THE HILL IT SMELLS AS WELL. NO MATTER IF IT'S FLAT OR A HILL, FROM CRANKING IT OR AFTER DRIVING A WHILE, SHORT DISTANCE OR LONG DISTANCE, IT SMELLS LIKE HORRIBLE FUMES THAT MAKE ME SICK.

EXHAUST GASES ARE GETTING INTO THE CABIN OF THE CAR. RECALL AND ADDITIONAL REPAIRS HAVE BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE, BUT THE ISSUE STILL EXISTS.

THERE IS A ROTTEN EGG SMELL EVERYTIME WE ACCELERATE AT A HIGH SPEED WHEN THE ECOBOOST IS USED. I'VE TAKEN IT TO FORD TO HAVE SEALS CHECKED AND THE SMELL IS STILL THERE. MY TODDLER COMPLAINS OF HEADACHES EVERYTIME WE'RE IN THE VEHICLE AND I'VE HAD NAUSEA SEVERAL TIMES. I AM NOW PREGNANT AND WORRY THE FUMES WILL AFFECT THE UNBORN BABY.

IT JOLTS, LUNGES, TRANSMISSION DOESN'T ENGAGE AND SLAMS INTO GEAR HARD IT MAKES YOU FEEL YOU GOT REAR ENDED WITH A BIG BANK. SLOW TO ACCELERATE AND WHEN IT FINALLY DOES IT LUNGES

WE PURCHASED OUR VEHICLE IN MAY OF 2017, AND NOTICED WEIRD SMELLS. TOOK IT ON A ROAD TRIP AND NOTICED THEM AGAIN IN JULY. AFTER THE LATE JULY 2017 NEWS RELEASE OF CO IN FORD EXPLORERS, WE USED CO MONITORS AND IN FACT, HAD CO READINGS. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER APPROX 10 TIME AND HAD THE TSB SERVICE PERFORMED, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I'VE HAD 3 DIFFERENT CASES OPEN WITH FORD, AND DURING THE LAST CASE, THEY DENIED MY "BUYBACK" REQUEST. PLEASE HELP. PHOTO ATTACHED AND VIDEOS CAN BE MAILED IN THAT SHOW CO LEVELS AND THEN SHOW CO LEVELS GOING TO ZERO WHEN WE ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW. WE HAVE HAD CO PROBLEMS FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE FORD WON'T.

BOTH HORNS ARE DEAD.

FORD EXPLORER RECALL - EXHAUST LEAKING INTO CABIN I TOOK MY VEHICLES INTO CROUSE FORD DUE TO THE RECALL ON MY 2016 EXPLORER. OVER THE NEXT TWO MONTHS I DROVE THE VEHICLE DAILY, BUT AS TIME WENT ON I STARTED TO FEEL DIZZY, NAUSEOUS AND HAD CONSTANT HEADACHES. I DID NOT PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER UNTIL WE DROVE A LONG DISTANCE AND MY DAUGHTER WHO SAT IN THE REAR SEAT HAD THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I DECIDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SERVICE CENTER AND THEY FOUND TWO ADDITIONAL LEAKS. AT FIRST FORD TOLD ME THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE COST EVEN THOUGH IT WAS TIED TO THE RECALL SINCE I NOTICED IT AFTER TWO MONTHS OF THE ORIGINAL FIX. WHERE THE EXHAUST WAS LEAKING HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR RECALL FIX. AFTER 5 DAYS THEY DECIDED TO COVER 80% OF THE COST. I AM NOT...

WHEN KEEPING A STEADY SPEED, RPMS FLUCTUATE UP AND DOWN CAUSING A JERKY MOVEMENT WHILE DRIVING. HAPPENS RANDOMLY OR AFTER IDLING FOR A FEW MINUTES. ALSO, POWER DECREASES DURING THIS EVENT, SO WHEN TAKING OFF, CAR DOESN'T WANT TO ACCELERATE, THEN LURCHES FORWARD. ALSO, WHEN ACCELERATING, PARTICULARLY UPHILL, A BURNING SMELL COMES FROM THE VEHICLE.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-94 EAST IN HARRISON TWP, MI ON 3/9/18. I WAS TRAVELING A 70 MPH. I HEARD SOMETHING AND SUDDENLY I AM SAW WHITE ALL AROUND ME LIKE A TUNNEL. AT THAT MOMENT I WAS STILL IN MY LANE. WITHIN SECONDS THE I HAD NO CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AS THOUGH I HAD NO BRAKES OR STEERING. MY CAR VEERED LEFT HITTING THE CEMENT MEDIAN. THE CAR ROLLED ON ITS LEFT SIDE AND EVENTUALLY FLIPPED BACK UPRIGHT. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES IN THE ACCIDENT. MY DAUGHTER, 14, AND I WERE IN THE VEHICLE AND WERE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL FOR MINOR INJURIES. ON 3/8/18 MY VEHICLE WAS SERVICED AT THE FORD DEALER TO REPLACE A WHEEL BEARING. THE SERVICE MAN MADE A COMMENT ABOUT OUR TIRES WEARING QUICKLY AND SHREDDING. WE PREVIOUSLY REPLACED THEM AT 22,500 MILES. CURRENTLY MY VEHICLE HAD 58,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS...

THE REAR DOORS WILL NOT OPEN WHEN THE CAR COMES TO A STOP AND PEOPLE WANT TO EXIT THE CAR; THE CHILD LOCK IS NOT ON. THE DRIVER HAS TO PHYSICALLY PUSH THE UNLOCK BUTTON TO OPEN ALL THE CAR DOORS . THE AUTONATION DEALERSHIP IN TUSTIN, CA CONTINUES TO TELL ME THIS IS CORRECT! THIS IS INSANITY AND UNSAFE. SO I'VE POSED THE SCENARIO, IF WE'RE IN A CRASH AND THE DRIVER BECOMES UNCONSCIOUS AND THE VEHICLE IS ON FIRE, YOU MEAN THE DRIVER HAS TO 'BECOME' CONSCIOUS IN ORDER TO OPEN ALL THE DOORS FOR EVERYONE TO ESCAPE?? YES, THAT IS THE ANSWER. THEY HAVE NO OTHER ANSWERS FOR ME TO EITHER UN-PROGRAM SOMETHING THAT IT INCORRECTLY PROGRAMMED OR EVEN ANY ADMISSION OR SUGGESTIONS THAT THIS DOESN'T SOUND CORRECT. WE NOW FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. THIS HAS EXISTED SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN 2015 BUT BECAUSE...

EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE OR MERGE OR DRIVE WITH ALL THE WINDOWS UP, I CAN SMELL A ENGINE EXHAUST/BURNING TYPE SMELL. THIS SMELL GIVES ME A HEAD ACHE AND MAKES ME FEEL NAUSEAS. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE 'CARBON MONOXIDE CONCERNS' DEALER SERVICE AND THIS SMELL HAS NOT CHANGED. I HAVE TO PUT THE WINDOWS DOWN CONSTANTLY TO NOT SMELL THIS SMELL THAT GIVES ME A HEAD ACHE.

DASH/SPEEDOMETER WENT BLACK - HEAT AND AIR SYSTEM INOPERABLE - NO TURN SIGNALS - POWER DECREASED AND POWER STEERING NOT FULLY FUNCTIONING. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WHEN I PLACED THE CAR IN PARK AND REALIZED THE RADIO AND INTERIOR LIGHTS WERE NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUTTING OFF SO I RESTARTED THE CAR AND STILL NOTHING. DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY - THIS DID FIX PART OF THE PROBLEMS BUT THE SYNCH HEALTH REPORT IS STILL NOT SHOWING COMPLETLELY CLEAR AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THEN WENT OFF AFTER DRIVING A FEW MILES . CONCERNED IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE ESPECIALLY IF THIS IS A POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL PROBLEM - CAR IS JUST AT 23K MILES AND ALSO HAD TO HAVE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED AT AROUD ONLY 3K MILES. NOT FELING SAFE IN THE CAR AT THIS POINT.

THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THE FORD EXPLORER DUE TO EXHAUST LEAKING INTO THE CABIN. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE FORD DEALERSHIP TO BE REPAIRED TWO MONTHS AGO AND WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS FIXED. HOWEVER, FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE AMOUNT OF EXHAUST IN THE CABIN IN THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING CONTINUES TO INCREASE TO THE POINT THAT IT IS AFFECTING MY AND MY FAMILY'S HEALTH. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY TO FIGURE OUT IF I HAVE CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING FROM PROLONG EXPOSURE TO THESE FUMES AS I HAVE BEEN EXHIBITING MANY OF THE SYMPTOMS FOR THE PAST WEEK AND SMELL EXHAUST FUMES ALL OF THE TIME EVEN WHEN I AM NOT VEHICLE. IF I TEST POSITIVE I WILL HAVE MY FAMILY TESTED AS WELL, BUT THIS ISSUE MUST BE RESOLVED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR GOD FORBID DIES. AS YOU KNOW THERE...

WE PURCHASED A NEW 2016 FORD EXPLORER SPORT 4WD 4DR IN 2016. THE OE TIRES ON THE VEHICLE WERE 4 HANCOOK VENTUS S1 NOBEL 2 TIRES, SIZED 255/50R20. THE DOT RATING IS "5MNC 1A H". AT 13,369 MILES ALL 4 TIRES WERE REPLACE UNDER "WARRANTY". THE FRONT TIRE TREADS WERE "FLACKING/PEELING" . THE WORK WAS DONE BY MATHEWS-CURRIE FORD, 130 TAMIAMI TRIAL NORTH, NOKOMIS FL 34275, ON 5/10/17, RO # 6199123/1. OUR COST FOR THE TIRES WAS $419.62. WE WERE FORCED BY HANCOOK TO REPLACE "LIKE WITH LIKE". AT 23,101 MILES I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER TO HAVE THE OIL CHANGED. THE REPLACEMENT TIRES ARE AGAIN "FLACKING/PEELING." THE DEALER TELLS ME THAT WE WILL HAVE TO REPLACE THEM WITH THE SAME TIRES. THEY ALSO TELL ME THAT THIS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH THIS BRAND OF TIRES. MY BACKGROUND IS THAT OF AN EXECUTIVE IN THE OE...

STRONG EXHAUST SMELL LEAKING INTO THE CABIN.

I HAVE NOTICED THERES A BURNING SMELLING FROM HEATER/AC VENTS RIGHT AFTER ACCELERATION FROM VEHICLE BEING STOPPED. I CAN CONFIRM ITS A BURNING SMELL (SIMILAR TO BURNING PLASTIC OR RUBBER). WHEN THE SMELL IS PRESENT, IT FEELS LIKE THERES LACK OF ACCELERATION FROM THE GAS PEDAL. ALMOST LIKE IF THERES A CLOGGED AIR FILTER OR ISSUE WITH TRANSMISSION OR EXHAUST. IT FEELS LIKE THAT KIND OF POOR ACCELERATION ISSUE. THE BURNING SMELLS LAST FOR ABOUT 1-2 MINUTES AND I'M NOT SURE WHERE ITS COMING FROM. THE ODOR IS A VERY STRONG ODOR AND I'M WAITING FOR A FIRE TO BREAK OUT SOMEWHERE WHEN THIS ODOR IS PRESENT. I HAVE A SERVICE APPT ON MONDAY, FEB 26 AND HOPEFULLY SOMETHING WILL BE FOUND. THE LAST THING I WANT IS TO BE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE BREAKS DOWN, LET ALONE CATCHES FIRE FOR SOME REASON.

WE NOW DRIVE WITH WINDOWS PARTIALLY OPEN DUE TO CARBON MONOXIDE EXHAUST GAS ENTERING THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF OUR 2016 FORD EXPLORER. WE ARE ASSUMING THAT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS ARE THE PROBLEM.

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE I COULD SMELL SOMETHING FUNNY WHEN DRIVING IT KIND OF LIKE AN OLD FILTER THAT NEEDED REPLACEMENT OR MILD GAS LIKE SMELL. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE CAR I PURCHASED HASN'T BEEN USED FOR TOO LONG AND IT'S NORMAL TO EXPERIENCE THAT THE FIRST FEW WEEKS/MONTHS... SO I WENT THROUGH N AND PURCHASED A CAR AIRFRESHNER TO CAMOUFLAGE THE SMELL COMING OUT THE EXHAUST HEAT/AC FAN. IT WORKED A LITTLE BUT I WAS RUNNING OUT OF IT QUICKLY AND IF I DIDN'T CHANGED IT RIGHT AWAY THEN THE SMELL WILL COME BACK...I WILL AS T DRIVING IT MUCH WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT CAUSE I WAS STAY AT HOME MOM. I STARTED FEELING SICK WHEN I GOT A FULL TIME JOB BACK IN NOVEMBER AS I WAS DRIVING THE CAR FOR WORK (60MILES+ /DAY). I TOLD MY HUSBAND I WAS FEELING...

BOUGHT A 2016 FORD EXPLORER SPORT IN NOV.2016 USED WITH 20K MILES. AS I WAS DRIVING HOME I NOTICED A HORRIBLE SMELL AND THOUGHT IT WAS JUST SOMETHING IN THE AREA NEVER DREAMING IT WAS THE CAR! I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND FOUND THE CAR HAD A RECALL ON IT. THE SMELL IS HORRIBLE, SO BAD WE HAVE TO RIDE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN. IM NOT SURE WHY THE DEALERSHIP WAS EVEN ALLOWED TO SELL THE CAR TO ME WITH DISCLOSING THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE WAITING ON A RESPONSE FROM FORD. I WOULD LIKE THEM TO BUY THE CAR BACK FROM ME.I AM DRIVING A 2003 CAR NOW WITH 150K MILES BECAUSE I CANNOT DRIVE MY NEW CAR.

IN OCTOBER 2017 I STARTED EXPERIENCING HEADACHES, LUNG CONGESTION, SINUS DRAINAGE AND OVERALL FATIGUE. I NORMALLY WORK OUT AT THE GYM 4 OR 5 DAYS A WEEK BUT GOT TO THE POINT THAT I WAS COUGHING TO MUCH TO EXERCISE. MT BLOOD PRESSURE WENT UP AS WELL AS MY BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS. I PUT MY EXPLORER IN FOR SERVICE TWICE BECAUSE OF THE SMELL. THE SMELL WAS STRONGEST WHEN I WAS DRIVING (ABOUT ONE HOUR TO AND FROM WORK) WITH THE HEAT ON. THE SMELL GOT BETTER WHEN I SET THE VENTS TO CYCLE THE INTERNAL AIR.

SINCE OWNING THIS VEHICLE, EXPERIENCED EXHAUST ODORS INSIDE OF VEHICLE, FOR OVER TWO YEARS EXPERIENCING SEVERE HEALTH ISSUES, HAD BEEN COMPLAINING TO MY DOCTORS. TOOK VEHICLE IN AND DEALER SAID THEY FIXED ODORS WHICH WAS PRODUCING EXHAUST CARBON MONOXIDE. TO ENTER INTO VEHICLE, SINCE BEING FIXED FOR CARBON MONOXIDE ISSUES STILL EXPERIENCING HEALTH ISSUES. AFTER READING ARTICLES YESTERDAY AM CONVINCED MY HEALTH ISSUES ARE NOW RELATED TO CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING DUE TO EXPLORER DEFECT.

THE LAST (3) TIMES MY SON HAS BEEN IN OUR 2016 FORD EXPLORER HE HAS VOMITED. HE IS 2.5 YEARS OLD AND WE HAVE A DAUGHTER ON THE WAY IN 2-3 WEEKS. IT IS JUST NOW CLICKING THAT THIS IS PROBABLY A CO2 ISSUE SINCE HE IS ALWAYS FINE ONCE HE GETS OUT OF THE CAR. IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT 10 MINUTES AFTER DRIVING. HE BECOMES DIZZY AND LOOKS DOWN. IT IS AWFUL. WE HAVE TRIED TO GET THE PART FROM FORD FOR WEEKS BUT THEY SAY THEY ARE BACK-ORDERED. PLEASE HELP!

EXHAUST FUMES INSIDE VEHICLE THERE IS A SMELL OF EXHAUST FUMES INSIDE OUR 2016 FORD EXPLORER WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. WE PURCHASED THIS 'NEW' IN JULY 2016 AND NOTICED IT RIGHT AWAY - IF YOU DON'T OPEN THE WINDOWS AND AIR OUT THE VEHICLE, THE FUMES CAUSE PASSENGERS TO EXPERIENCE NAUSEA AND HEADACHE - IT IS MOST NOTICEABLE ON ACCELERATION BUT SOMETIMES IT JUST OCCURS OUT OF NOWHERE. IT THEN BECOMES ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO OPEN THE WINDOWS AND GET OXYGEN / OUTSIDE AIR INSIDE THE VEHICLE - IT'S ALMOST AUTOMATIC FOR US TO DO THIS ANYMORE - START THE CAR, ACCELERATE, OPEN THE WINDOWS, AIR IT OUT, CLOSE THE WINDOWS. THIS VEHICLE'S USUAL OCCUPANTS ARE A DRIVER AND FRONT SEAT PASSENGER, HOWEVER, SECOND AND THIRD ROW SEAT PASSENGERS WHO HAVE BEEN IN THE VEHICLE HAVE EXPERIENCED AND REPORTED THE SAME ISSUES, E.G., NAUSEA AND HEADACHE. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS...

MY FAMILY IS GETTING SICK WHILE IN THE CAR. ADULTS WITH SYMPTOMS OF DIZZINESS AND NAUSEA. CHILDREN WITH SYMPTOMS OF NAUSEA, HEADACHES AND VOMITING. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND HAS HAPPENED ON COUNTY, STATE AND HIGHWAY ROADS. GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE MAKES THE SYMPTOMS GO AWAY.

VERY STONG CARBON-MONOXIDE SMELL IN CABIN. I HAVE TO PUT WINDOWS DOWN TO DRIVE. TOOK TO FORD FOR THE RECALL REPAIR, STILL HAVE AN ISSUE. HAPPENS WHEN CAR IS SITTING & WHILE BEING DRIVEN.

I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND MY SUV SUDDENLY STARTED LOOSING POWER AND JERKING (HESITATING TO MOVE) I PULLED OVER AND STARTED TO SMELL BURNING OIL OR VERY UNIQUE SMELL ALMOST LIKE BURNING BREAK FLUID OR CARBON. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SMELL WAS NOTICED IMMEDIATELY BY THE SERVICE REP. THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE AND CANNOT EXPLAIN THE SMELL IN MY CARS CABIN. THE SMELL IS SO STRONG WHEN PARKED OR DURING IDLE THAT WE CANNOT RUN THE AC OR HEATER FOR FEAR OF THE SMELL MAKING YA ALL SICK. FORD WILL NOT PROVIDE ANY INSIGHT OR HELP AND THE SMELL IS LITERALLY HARMING ME AND MY CHILDREN. THE ISSUE IS ONGOING AND THE SMELL HAS NOT LET UP. THE CAR DOES SPUTTER OUT WHEN ACCELERATING FROM TIME TO TIME..NO ANSWERS FROM FORD ON WHY THAT HAPPENS....COMPLETELY LOST AND FRUSTRATED!

ANYTIME I ACCELERATE TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS, A STRONG EXHAUST ODOR FILLS THE PASSENGER CABIN. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT BUT NOW I SAW A NEWS ARTICLE THAT RAISED NEW CONCERNS AND SUGGESTED REPORTING THIS ISSUE IF PRESENT.

BEEN GETTING HEADACHES FOR THE PAST MONTH AS WELL AS DIZZINESS AND FEELINGS OF NAUSEA. YESTERDAY CAR HAD OVERWHELMING EXHAUST ODOR INSIDE OF CAR THAT MADE ME EXTREMELY ILL ALL DAY YESTERDAY... I DID CALL FORD AND THEY HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALER WHO STATED THEY WILL CHANGE OUT CLIPS. WANT TO BE SURE TO REPORT AS IT APPEARS IT IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE TYPLE.. THE SMELL COULD BE SMELT AS SOON AS CAR WAS TURNED ON, AND WORSENED AS CAR WAS DRIVING DOWN ROAD. FASTER THE CAR WOULD MOVE THE WORSE IT GOT.

I REPORTED THIS EARLIER TODAY, BUT WANTED TO ADD TO HERE THAT I TALKED TO A REPRESENTATIVE TO FORD AND TOLD HIM THAT THE CAR WAS LEAKING EXHAUST INTO THE CAB OF THE CAR. HE ADVISED ME TO "DRIVE IT" TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP ABOUT 20-30 MINUTES AWAY. I ASKED IF HE WAS WILLING TO PUT HIS CHILD IN THIS CAR AS THIS IS WHAT HE IS ADVISING ME TO DO. HE SAID HE WOULD NOT. PLEASE USE THIS INFORMATION AS YOU CAN AS FORD CUSTOMER SERVICE IS NOW PUTTING PEOPLE IN AND OUTSIDE OF THE CAR IN SERIOUS DANGER BY ADVISING THEM TO DRIVE VEHICLES THAT ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT ROAD WORTHY. DISGUSTING A COMPANY IS ALLOWED THIS... THANKS

THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR FILLS WITH EXHAUST SMELLS. IT IS OVERPOWERING AND HAS CAUSED NAUSEA AND HEADACHES IN MYSELF AS WELL AS MY TWO OLDER CHILDREN. I AM NOT SURE HOW IT IS AFFECTING MY 3 MONTH OLD. THE SMELL IS UNCOMFORTABLE AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF IT IS TO STOP THE CAR AND OPEN WINDOWS. IT HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IN MOTION AS WELL AS STATIONARY.

CAR HAS SMELLED AWFUL SINCE LEASING. BEING GASSED WITH CARBON MONOXIDE EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. TOOK IN FOR RECALL TO VARSITY LINCOLN. THEY DID NOT ADDRESS IT. DROVE CAR TO FRANKENMUTH FOR THANKSGIVING DINNER 1 1/2 HOUR RIDE. SOMETHING POPPED AND THE MOST AWFUL GAS SMELL CAME OUT AND NEVER WENT AWAY EVERYBODY AROUND US COULD SMELL IT. DROPPED IT OFF AT TOM HOLZER FORD. THEY ADDRESSED THE RECALL AND SMELL BY PUTTING ADSHESIVE (TAPE) AND SEALANT (GLUE) CALLED AND TOLD IT IT WAS READY. THE SMELL WAS NOT GONE TOOK IT BACK 4 DAYS LATER. WAS TOLD THE TRANSFER CASE BLEW AND THEY WOULD NEED IT FOR A FEW DAYS TO FIX IT. PICK UP CAR STILL SMELLED AWFUL. WENT UP NORTH LAST WEEK. THREE HOUR RIDE. THE FIRST HOUR I HAD THE BACK WINDOWS OPEN AS ALWAYS CAUSE I KNOW I AM BEING POISONED. THE NEXT TWO...

I BOUGHT THE 2016 FORD EXPLORER XLT LAST WEEK FROM A FORD DEALER, I DROVE IT HOME WHICH IS 35-40 MINUTES AWAY FROM THE FORD DEALERSHIP AND BOTH MY WIFE AND I HAD SEVERE HEADACHE. THERE WAS AN ODOR INSIDE THE CABIN WHICH WAS CAUSING THE HEADACHE/NAUSEA. WE COULDNT EXPLAIN WHY THE ODOR WAS THERE AND WHEN WE RESEARCHED ONLINE, WE WERE SHOCKED TO FIND THAT THE FORD EXPLORER HAD THE CARBON MONOXIDE LEAK ISSUE. WE ARE NOT ABLE TO DRIVE OUR CAR FOR MORE THAN 15-20 MINUTES WITHOUT GETTING A HEADACHE.

VERY STRONG EXHAUST FUMES ENTERING VEHICLE AT OR ABOVE 3500 RPM. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME ACCELERATING TO HIGHWAY SPEED. ENTIRE CAB FILLS WITH FUMES IMMEDIATELY AND DOES NOT DISAPATE UNTIL ALL WINDOWS ARE ROLLED DOWN. EXPERIENCED HEADACHES, DIZZINESS AND NAUSEA. OWNER HAD TO TRADE VEHICLE (AT THEIR EXPENSE) AS DEFECT WAS CAUSING DAILY HEALTH PROBLEMS. FORD NEEDS TO BE FORCED TO NOTIFY CONSUMERS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE VEHICLE IS PURCHASED. OWNER HAD 2015 FORD EXPLORER WITH SAME PROBLEM AND WON LEMON LAW CASE AGAINST FORD - LEMON LAW ARBITRATORS SMELLED WHAT THEY DESCRIBED AS EXHAUST FUMES DURING LEMON LAW HEARING TEST DRIVE. FORD REPAIR ATTEMPTS DO NOT WORK! NHTSA AND FORD NEED TO DETERMINE FIX OR RECALL VEHICLES. EXHAUST FUMES CONTAIN CARBON MONOXIDE AS WELL AS MANY OTHER TOXIC CHEMICALS. FORD ADMITS EXHAUST FUMES ENTERING VEHICLE BUT CLAIMS LOW VOLUME/SAFE. PLEASE CONSIDER THAT INFANTS AND YOUNG CHILDREN CANNOT BE EXPOSED...

SMELLING EXHAUST ODORS IN THE OCCUPANT COMPARTMENT. CONCERNS ABOUT EXPOSURE TO CARBON MONOXIDE. SMELL IS WORSE WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY AND WHEN HEATER IS ON.
