FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Oct 07, 1998.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY . i was driving explorer on the freeway at about 65mph with a full tank of 21 gallons fuli saw at the last moment a type of hand tool in my lane. it looked like a wrench or something. because of the size i couldn't see it until the last moment. i did not swerve to miss it because i did not have time to check for a clear lane to swerve into, and did not want to just move over quickly and cause an accident with a car next to me. also i did not think that running over this small tool would have such a serious out come. i only heard a small thump as the tool went under my tire. then less than a mile later when i got off at my exit and stopped at a red light, a man that was at the light next to me ran over to my window and began pounding on it and yelling a t me to get out of my car because it was dumping gasoline all over. i got out and even with the fast response of the fire department and the highway patrol my car had dumped gas all over the road. it is a wonder that even with the car (from driving on the highway) the gasoline did not catch fire. if it had caught fire not only myself, but all those stopped at the red light could have been seriously injured or killed. when ford was making the repairs they informed me that my explorer does not come with skid plates that would have prevented this type of accident, they stated that they are standard on the 4x4 (which mine is not) and an option on my 2wd. they then stated that this kind of problem can happen very easily and the best protection is to pay the extra and have them install the skid plates which you bet your life i did because i already risked my own more than i ever care too. now tell me how it is that they can know that there is a serious chance that a person could have a small rock or object fly up and rupture a gas tank and cause a fire and that the owner never knew that the car had no protection from this problem. if they knew this was a problem why dont they need to put the skid plates on all of the cars..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU32E0WZ.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Jan 27, 1999.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . unsatisfactory performance from firestone wilderness at p235/75r15 (suv) tires. after routine service and (second) tire rotation/balance at 12,000 miles, i noticed my vehicle "pulling" to the right while on the highway. i returned the vehicle to the servicing dealer (kearny mesa ford, san diego ca), and asked them to repair the problem. after several attempts, they were unable to rotate the tires and still have them balanced within specification. consequently, the tires were returned to their original positions on the vehicle. the explanation given to me was that there was "likely a loose belt within one of the tires preventing it from balancing correctly, but since the vehicle didn't seem to "pull" when this tire was mounted on the rear, i should just leave it there and not rotate my tires in the future." when i inquired about warranty and/or replacement, i was informed that because the tires had 12,000 miles accrued, there was nothing i could do. as a result of not rotating my tires (...something i normally do as scheduled), my tires have worn irregularly and i believe have worn out prematurely (...in this case, approximately 40,000 miles; however i generally get much greater tire life due to the "highway" driving i do and proper tire maintenance). i am hoping this information will be helpful in your investigation of the firestone wilderness at tires.*ak( dot number: tire size: p235/75r15 ).Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU32E5WZ.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 16, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . on my way to poway,ca, southbound i-5, my car began to pull to the right and shake. i pulled off to check my tires. checking all 4 tires for correct inflation, i found nothing wrong. i got back on the freeway, as i was out in the middle of nowhere, lowered my speed and continued. as i approached poway the front end started to make a thumping noise. i was less than 1 mile from my sister's house, so i lowered my speed again and finished my trip. we looked at the tires and noticed that the right front tire had a bulge in it. it was about 5" in size along the tire tread. on 7/17 i took my explorer to the ford dealer of poway (perry ford) for an inspection. robert saw the bubble and said that all four tires needed to be replaced. he suggested a new set of firestones. having had problems with them on our 1993 ranger, and seeing the bubble on a tire that should not have to be replaced i refused. he was very persistant saying firestone makes a great tire, but i refussed. having all four tires replaced, mounted, balanced, and an alignment, it cost $550.21 to get myself and my children home to anaheim. when we bought the explorer in 1998, we asked for the tires at that time, before pick-up, to be replaced as we had had problems with firestones on the ranger. the dealer would not replace them, but gave us the name of a place to go to get new tires and possibly at a discount as the firestone tires were new and could be bought back. if this condition has been under investigation for awhile, why would the ford dealer of poway suggest(almost insist) that the same tire be put back on?? isn't that a little neglectful of robert and the dealer knowing i was going to get back on the freeway with my children and drive over 80 miles? i am very angry and upset about hearing about this investigation going on and the fact that nothing was said to me, and it cost me $550.00 for a problem that they created. please let me know of any further information..Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU32E7WZ.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . i am currently leasing an explorer with wilderness at tires that were not part of the recall. however, i have a wilderness at tire that is showing signs of tread separation (an employee of firestone agreed that this tire is failing just like the recalled tires). my ford dealer will not replace the tires because they are not part of the recall and firestone will only replace them with firestone tires, which i don't want for obvious reasons. how can they only recall wilderness tires made from their decatur, il plant? are we to assume that these tires are made differently at their other plants? if so, why are my tires failing the exact same way? what makes me really upset is the fact that they insist that the tires are safe and that it is the tire owners' fault for the tires failures. they refuse to take the blame. i rotate my tires and have the pressure checked with every oil change (every 3000 miles) and still my tires are failing. if the fault was the tire owners fault, then wouldn't you see the same type of statistics from goodyear tires and michelin tires? are we assume that firestone tire owners take significantly less care of their tires than other tire owners? the nhtsa needs to step in and protect the people by forcing firestone to recall all wilderness at tires -- not just the ones firestone wants to. even if 80% of the wilderness at failures were from tires made from the il plant, does that mean we should recall those tires only? what about the other 20% (where i obviously fall)? don't their (my) lives matter as well? firestone should not be allowed to handle this situation the way they want to. the nhtsa needs to take charge, save people, and make firestone take the blame instead of pushing onto its tire owners. corporations should have to pay for killing people just like people have to. *ak( dot number: tire size: p235/75/15 ).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Ford Explorer 1998 problem was reported in ALLEN, TX.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Jan 24, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES:TREAD/BELT . i am concerned that the current recall may be too limited. on january 24, 2000, i experienced a tread seperation while driving on our state hwy 41 at approx. 50 mph during a rainstorm. fortunately, i was on a level and straight stretch of road when the failure occured. had the incident occured 5 miles earlier, i would have been in mountainous terrain and may not have survived to file this report. i turned the tire in to firestone that day and was provided a replacement. i purchased a matched 2nd for the other side. with the current controversy and recall, i chose to replace my tires with those of a different and still reputable manufacturer. i now have 5 pirelli scorpions of the same size as the original equipment. i have also contacted firestone's district office in this area. i was told to bring my original wilderness tires to my local dealer and submit the reimbursement forms. although there is no gaurantee that i will be reimbursed, i informed the local office that the district office asked that they may wish to study these tires. when i told the local store staff of the regional office's directive to me, the mechanic indicated they would likely destroy the tires since they were not part of the current recall. i asked the store manager steve to check with the district office first. i am not only a physician now working in an emergency facility that serves our mountain communities but was also trained as a physicist. it is not often that you have a scientific observor involved in a reported event such as this one. i hope that one of your staff will contact me soon for further information. i also hope that firestone will act in a responsible manner to ascertain with reasonable certainty the true extent of their problem. thank you.....joseph chudy, md( dot number: w2hl1py407 tire size: p235/75r15 ).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU35P6WZ.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on .FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . i think someone should be looking at the other 15" wilderness at tires that are not in the recall. we have a set on a 1998 explorer that has been excellently maintained. the tires have never been inflated less than the manufacturer's recommended 26 psi. in fact i have kept them inflated at 28 psi. the tires have 30,000 miles on them and exhibit only one crack but that crack is completely around the circumference of each tire and in approximately 1/2" from the perimeter on all four tires. i have not looked at the spare but i suspect it is ok since it has never been on the vehicle. our tires were made in canada and exhibit dot code vnhl1py477x5 and thus they are not in the recall according to ford and firestone. this should not happen to a tire at 30,000 miles. i had gone to both a firestone store and the ford dealership where we purchased the vehicle. the ford dealership said to contact firestone. when i went to the firestone store they did indeed inspect the tires and said they did not qualify for the recall. just thought you might like to know.( dot number: vnhl1py477 tire size: p235-75r15 ).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU34E4WU.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 10, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . we found continuous cracks in all four of our 15" wilderness tires on thursday, august 10, 2000. firestone refused to replace them because the dot code was vnhl indicating that they were made in quebec. our ford dealer, jim ross, told us to go anywhere and buy any tires, and that ford of firestone would reimburse us. he said they were scarey looking. he was worried about my wife, luanne, driving on them. luanne bought 4 new michelins and had them put on for $507.32. since the damaged firestones were not made in decatur, it looks like we will not get our money back. we are upset about losing this much money, but my family's safety is more important than $500. i hope your office can look into this probable problem with these tires that so far have escaped the recall, before more lives are lost and property damaged. thank you so much for your time. sincerely, bill dugan( dot number: vnhl ).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU32E7WU.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 10, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . we found continuous cracks in all four of our 15" wilderness tires on thursday, august 10, 2000. firestone refused to replace them because the dot code was vnhl indicating that they were made in quebec. our ford dealer, jim ross, told us to go anywhere and buy any tires, and that ford of firestone would reimburse us. he said they were scarey looking. he was worried about my wife, luanne, driving on them. luanne bought 4 new michelins and had them put on for $507.32. since the damaged firestones were not made in decatur, it looks like we will not get our money back. we are upset about losing this much money, but my family's safety is more important than $500. i hope your office can look into this probable problem with these tires that so far have escaped the recall, before more lives are lost and property damaged. thank you so much for your time. sincerely, bill dugan( dot number: vnhl ).0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU32E7WU.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on .FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES:TREAD/BELT . my safety concern is the spare tire not subject to the firestone recall. ford's contract with firestone required five tires of the same size, tread design, load capacity, etc to be installed on my 1998 ford explorer 4 wheel drive. that was done to assure that when spare tires were used either in a five tire rotation or as an emergency tire, they would all be of the same tread design, etc so that the vehicle would perform safely. four of my firestone tires were subject to the recall,but not the spare. i replaced the four on the ground with big "o" brand tires meeting ford's specs, and the spare as well in order to be in compliance with ford;s specifications. firestone has reimbursed me $400.00 for the four recalled tires, but refuses to pay for the spare which i cannot safely use on my vehicle. since i exercised my option offered by firestone to use another manufacturers tires, which do not match firestone's tread design, you need to order firestone to replace the spare tire at the same reimbursement level offered for the recalled tires. doing so will bring me and others into conformity with ford's safety handling concerns for the four wheel drive to have tires of the same tread design on the road during five tire rotation or during emergency needs. thank you. robert j. whittaker. jr.( dot number: vnhl tire size: p235/75r15 ).Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU34E1WZ.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Sept 21, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with TIRES . all 4 tires began to show tread separation all the way around the tire on both the inside and the outside of the tires. the vehicle was taken to 2 different ford dealerships, including the one where i bought my explorer, and both recognized the break down of the tires but stated that it was a firestone problem as the tire id number was not on their recall list. ford sent me back out on the highway with bad tires. the vehicle was taken to firestone which would only prorate a replacement which was not adequate. thus i elected to replace the tires with michelins. i have photographed the tires and have kept the tires for future reference. it appears that the tires broke down due to the fact that ford used the low pressure of 26 psi. in the tires to prevent rollover. this low pressure caused all 4 tires to break down at the same time. it was fortunate that the break down was found before complete separation occured causing a fatal accident. the firestone dealer confirmed to me that the low pressure in the tires was the cause for the break down and thus was not firestone's problem. as reported on the news this am 10-9-00 goodyear tires on ford explorers also have had tread separation probably caused by the low pressure required by the ford motor co. to prevent rollover of the explorer. these tires have not been recalled by ford or firestone and it is obvious that there are defective tires still out on the road and something should be done about this situation immediately.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 07, 2000.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK . i have already reported the tire failure that i will refer to, and would like to report the behavior of the brakes. when driving at 65 to 70 mph, the cruise control was set, and we were going down a moderate grade when the left front tire blew out. i maintained directional control and attempted to apply moderate braking. the brake pedal remained firm, but i got no brake effectivness (not reduced brakeing -- zero brakes!) so i stepped harder on the brakes and still there was no deceleration -- no brakes at all, in fact, because we were going down hill, i cannot even be certian that the cruise control switched off. assuming that the lack of brakes had to be related to the abs malfunctioning, i took all pressure off the brake pedal and switched off the ignition switch, then i reapplied gentle pressure to the brakes and the brakes worked normally. to recap: after the tire blew, i had no brakes with the engine running, after switching off the ignition switch the brakes worked normally. i estimate that 3 to 5 seconds elapsed from when the blow out occured to when i switched off the ignition. when i got the vehicke stopped on the shoulded of the road there was very little left of the tire and there was substantial damage to the outer bead of the wheel rim. no other damage to the vehicle was evident, and after installing the spare tire the brakes functioned normally. several days later the local ford dealer checked the brakes and abs and found it to be normal. i told the service representative about the brake problem, and he told me that the problem i described couldn't have happened. i assure you -- it happened as i have described.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Apr 03, 2002.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with CHILD SEAT:SHELL:INFANT . due to extreme width of youth seat (aka booster seat), the unit is very close to the passenger door. upon closing the car door, child's fingers were crushed between the door and the car seat. fingers were deformed at first, but recoverd to original form within 10 minutes. no broken bones. when installing the seat, the seat belt latch is located "behind" the seat - as opposed to being located to the side of the seat. this causes the nature position of the seat to move toward the door, increasing the risk of finger crushing by the door. also, due to the extreme width, the entire seatbelt is used to install the seat (about an inch will be retracted), thus making a proper installation nearly impossible in a ford explorer. when i contacted the manufactor, britax, (by phone, fax, and letter), i only received a letter back apologizing for the "pinching" of my daughter's fingers. they obviously do not understand the consequence of this "defect." nothing was done by britax to address the issue.*ak.1 person(s) were injured.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Dec 06, 2003.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE . i have read 24 complaints concerning the failure of the camshaft chain on the 1998 ford explorers with the 4.0 sohc engines and seen 23 technical service bulletins concerning this same problem. this type of failure can cause serious injury if this occurs while operating the vehicle due to engine failure,not to mention the fact that it also blows the engine requiring it to be replaced at a cost near $5000. ford has acknowledged this problem and has offered replacement with mileage limitations. if this is a defect and a safety hazard causing the loss of control of the vehicle when this failure occurs ,why is this not important enough to warrant an investigation? my ford is 4000 miles over the limit set by ford to replace the parts in question. although this did not lessen the danger when this failure occurred to my wife, 5 year old and 1 year old daughters while in the vehicle causing her to lose control due to the engine failure as a result of these defective parts. i was told in a phone conversation that the recall was voluntary by ford and it is legal for them to set those limitations. this is unconceivable that they can place individuals in harms way knowingly and in an effort to save a buck, not a life , set limits to the remedy of the situation. why are these complaints not being investigated and if they have what was the end results of this investigation? *la david kyde 810 third st. #5 trenton, ohio 45067 513-988-6516 .Mileage was 76000 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on July 14, 2004.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SUSPENSION:FRONT:WHEEL BEARING . since purchasing a used 1998 ford explorer i have been blessed with nothing but problems with it. 6 months after purchasing the vehicle my wheel bearings went out and damaged the spindle. this was a $500 expense as the spindle was a dealer part. when i purchased it there were 26000 miles on it...there were about 36000 when the bearings went out...just as the warranty expired. then, about a year later, the upper air intake manifold got a hole burned in it. again, ford couldn't offer me any kind of help and said it was a $800-1000 repair. on a side note, this type of problem was a known issue by ford. in fact, recalls were made by ford to replace the intakes free of charge to fleets but not to the general public. just recently my freeze plugs rusted through and caused my car to overheat. this has been quoted by ford as a $1300 repair. i called ford to see about some sort of goodwill warranty and of course anything with goodwill in the equation is definitely something ford will not do. i currently have 2 years left on the loan for a piece of crap car that isn't even worth half of what i still owe on it. i am really thinking of taking it back to the dealer and parking right in front of the entry way and taking the keys with me and telling them to stick it up their rears. ford makes the whole car industry look really bad and in no way would i ever buy another ford. please help us consumers out and make the game fair between the auto industry and consumers...we are getting ripped off left and right while they keep getting richer and richer. *la.Mileage was 103000 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2005.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS . to whom it may concern: i purchased a used 1998 ford explorer 13 months ago. on aug 15,2005 i started my truck up and i could not roll my windows down then i went on to testing the wind shield wipers ( front & back ) they did not work (this is a safety hazzard ) i tried the interior lights they did not work and as well as the 4x4 system. i had to get home so when as i was driving ( luckily it was not raining ) i randomly tested everything again still nothing worked, so i left the switches on and every now and then everything would come on for a split second. when i got home i was baffled and started looking through my owners manual, no info that could help me figure out what the problem could be. so i went online and did some research on ford explorers and its electronics. my search brought me to the recall sights and when i looked on that sight i noticed that i had found the same excact problems i am having as the 1999 & 2000 ford explorer recalls as well as 1999 & 2000 mercury mountainers which is by the ford company. they are under the title - component: electrical system, fuses, and circuit breakers and the nhtsa recall # 00v072000 and the remedy for this problem is that the dealers will install a resistor in the gem circuit. i called ford company and they are not willing to help me with this problem because my truck is not on the recall list and i feel that it should be and that someone needs to understand that if this problem is happening to the 1999 & 2000' s then it is happening to the 1998 as well, they are the same truck made with the same materials and only updated with more physical features or omitted out dated physical features. unfortunatly i can't drive my truck now unless i know the weather is going to be clear of rain or other bad weather. i am not able to get it fixed because i can't afford it so i am stuck at the moment if anyone can help or advise it would be greatly appreciated - thank you david stansbury.Mileage was 70686 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Sept 21, 2005.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:RECLINER . i own a 1998 ford explorer xl 4 door model with 29744 original miles on it. the vehicle is in excellent condition and has never been involved in any kind of accident. the vehicle has been well maintained and was taken to the dealer for 3 different safety recalls, throttle cable, hood latch and drivers seat in the early part of my ownership. on september 21 2005 while driving the vehicle home from work the drivers seat fell backwards about 4-5 inches making me momentarily lose control of the vehicle and nearly caused and accident. upon inspection of the seat when i got home it was apparent that the seat frame just in front of the hinge mechanism had broken and bent upward allowing the entire mechanism and the back of the seat to move rearward. the vehicle is now unusable due to this extreme safety defect. on september 22 2005 the vehicle was taken to south bay ford at 5100 w rosecrans ave. hawthorne ca. 90250 and presented to the service adviser aaron estrada and asked if this was a result of the safety recall of the drivers seat. i was informed that this was not part of that recall and that ford was not responsible for this potentially deadly seat defect and other than selling me a new seat there was nothing they would do. i feel that this is a very dangerous safety defect that ford should be responsible for repairing. south bay ford said they wanted a minimum of $87 to even initiate a repair ticket to look at the defective seat. i now own a ford vehicle that looks to be in perfect condition but is in fact, the vehicle can not be driven or sold. i could never recommend this vehicle to anyone in good conscience knowing it could kill their family!. *jb .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 29740 miles.

Ford Explorer 1998 Fuel System, Gasoline Fuel Injection System Review #10151200

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Feb 09, 2006.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM . the water pump was replaced on vehicle on 09 aug, 2003, necessitating removal and re-installation of the air intake hose connected to the throttle body. on the morning of 09 feb, 2006 the accelerator was briefly depressed to the floor while navigating in freeway traffic. the accelerator remained in this position after having removed the driver's foot from the accelerator. full pressure was being applied to the brakes with no apparent slowing of the vehicle. the vehicle was steered towards an open construction area adjacent to the freeway, and shifted into 'park' while still moving at about 50 mph. the vehicle stopped safely, and without collision. the vehicle remained drivable after this incident. upon investigation, it appears that the body of the hose clamp that secures the air intake hose to the throttle body was interfering with the throttle mechanism such that when the accelerator was fully depressed, a plastic tab on the throttle mechanism would rub against the body of the hose clamp with enough force to hold the throttle in the fully open position. as previously mentioned, this hose had been removed and re-installed, possibly causing the hose and attached hose clamp to be rotated several degrees from their original (factory) position. it should be noted that there are no features on the hose or throttle body to ensure proper orientation upon re-installation. to correct the problem, the air intake hose was re-positioned , and the offending corner of the plastic tab on the throttle linkage was filed off. (digital photos and video of the failure condition are available)*jb .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 84000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FMZU32E4WZ.

Ford Explorer 1998 Visibility Defroster/defogger System Windshield Controls/wiring Review #10156548

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2006.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER SYSTEM:WINDSHIELD:CONTROLS/WIRING . i purchased my 1998 ford explorer limited from my mother in january of 2006 with 68000 miles on the odometer. in feburary i first noticed vehicle was unable to defrost the front windshield and defog the vehicles windows. the cause of the problem was the climate control would sometimes not blow warm air. this would also result in a very cold interior. after researching the problem on the internet i found many complaints regarding the 1996-1998 ford explorer and a common problem with the climate control's air blending door breaking, making it impossible to regulate heat and cold. the vehicle was parked until i could determine if this was in fact the issue i was having. i had no choice but to park the vehicle until i was sure i had no need to operate the climate control. i was instructed how to check for a broken blend door and indeed found mine to be broken. i took the vehicle to a local ford dealer in carson city nevada and was told that despite the frequency of this problem it was not a recall issue and without a warranty the cost for repair was $1100. i was also informed the broken parts were being replaced with parts constructed of improved material (nylon) because of their tendency to break using the previous material (abs plastic). i feel ford is well aware of this hazardous problem but because of the cost, won't issue a recall or even a technical service bulletin. instead the leave the consumer to cough up the labor and parts cost to repair something that should be the responsibility of a reputable automobile manufacturer. *jb.Mileage was 70000 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on Feb 22, 2007.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with STEERING:COLUMN . on 2/22/07 i was driving to work in my 1998 ford explorer xlt 4dr. i had just come off the nj turnpike and was driving through union city at 6:45 in the morning when i stopped at a red light. when the light turned green i accelerated and attempted to turn the vehicle to the left to follow the road. to my shock and horror the steering wheel spun freely without changing the direction of my vehicle. i had absolutely no steering with barely any resistance on the steering wheel itself. my vehicle went straight across the road; i stopped the vehicle up on a sidewalk just before a building. thank god there was no one walking there at that early hour. after i managed to compose myself i tried turning the wheel and found that it would just continue to spin freely either left or right, with nothing stopping it. if i turned the wheel hard and let go the steering wheel would spin completely around 5 or 6 times before coming to a stop. i called the union city police and told them what occurred and that the car was up on a sidewalk with no way to steer it. they told me to call aaa and sent a car by. aaa came with a flat bed and after a long time managed to get the vehicle off the curb and on the truck. the driver had a very difficult time because there was no way to steer the vehicle. i accompanied my vehicle as it was towed to my local repair station 30 miles away. the station found that inside the drivers compartment the steering column is two separate shafts that are held together by a single bolt ( no nut ). the bolt had backed out of the connection and the shafts had become separated. the mechanic found the bolt under the driver's seat. the mechanic told me that once the shafts became separated there was no way to steer the vehicle. he expressed great concern that the bolt did not have a nut or some kind of pin to keep it from falling out. the mechanic put some 'thread locker' on the bolt and put it back in the steering shaft, which fixed the problem. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 140000 miles.

Ford Explorer 1998 Seats Review #10371629

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on June 14, 2008.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with SEATS . about 3 years ago i started to notice the driver’s side seat reclining and i couldn't reset it to the upright position. through the years the recline got worst and i contacted ford and advised them that this may be related to their recall # 03v281000. ford responded by telling me that i already got serviced for this recall and that my vehicle has no outstanding recalls. i purchased another seat and recently had it installed. upon inspection of the original seat my mechanic and i noticed a stress crack on the reclining bracket of the seat. my argument is that ford’s recall remedy didn't solve the problem because it is a defective reclining bracket that is causing this problem not the upper bolt they replaced. i have worked as an aircraft mechanic and know a stress crack when i see it. this is definitely a factory defect and should be investigated immediately. i had roughly a ¼ inch left before the back of the seat would snap and recline totally. depending on the speed and terrain you are driving on this could be tragic. i have contacted ford numerous times and in their last letter they indicated that they will not communicate with me anymore. i kept the original seat and can send you photos if you need them..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 50000 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 1998 car safety problem was reported on June 20, 2011.FORD EXPLORER 1998, manufactured by FORD MOTOR COMPANY had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . may 20, approximately 03:30am, while driving about 35mph to work in the dark with head lights on; headlights unexpectedly turned off. luckily that section of the street, had street lights working properly; but, i was approaching an unlit stretch of winding road with a 45mph speed limit. this could have become very dangerous. (dashboard lights were not affected.) turning the normal headlight switch did not seem to fix the problem. i tried the bright light function, which is part of the turn signal lever. they did not come on at first; however when jiggling the "turn signal lever," i noticed a "looseness in the lever, at the base where it connects to the steering column." wiggling it, turned the head lights back on, temporarily; but, wiggling from vibration in traffic caused them to turn "off" again. the turn signal lever on the 1998 ford explorer is used to control the "bright lights" and also controls windshield wipers. i am not certain; but, i believe i had the turn signal lever assembly repaired several years ago by a ford dealer in san diego...neither of the dealers i used to have service my vehicle are still in business. i believe the problem with the turn signal lever at that time, had to do with the wipers cutting off unexpectedly; and, eventually, not working all together. first: is this something the government should investigate "before" having the vehicle repaired? second: should ford be the one investigating this problem? third: should ford replace the turn lever assembly and provide the labor at their expense? ... on a personal note, after working for the same company for 12 years and being a workaholic, i just got laid off last week. this expense is definitely going to cost several hundred dollars in parts and labor, when i can least afford it. at this time, i can rule out trying to apply for a night job. *js.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 99000 miles.

Ford Explorer 1998 Reports


my 95 ford exploere engine surges when turn my air conditioner on

Ihave a 1994 ford probe which has started to idle very low and stalls at times. It is a 4 cyl. w/ air and a 5 speed. any ideas? I replaced the fuel filter, air flow meter and added HEAT to gas tank to dry and clean fuel system. I think my pcv valv

should a standard transmission truck start when it is in gear without the clucth engaged?

should a 2005 standard transmission ford ranger start when in gear without the clutch engaged?

96 Ford F250 Emergency brake lever gets caught on the auto adjustment spring, causing brakes to be permanently engaged, also allowing the parking break lever to rub against the hub, which can cut through over time.

try pushing the pedals button closer to you. you must have the pedal adjustment button to the left of the radio, looks like a foot, that brings the pedals more inward towards the driver. hope it helped. or look carefully if a wire has corroded. it

i would check ur multi switch on ur stearing colum

on the pedal

whats the sound

Just bought an '06 E-350 van. Left d'ship got on highway and noticed shimmy when I got to 60....same problem????

that happened to me last night! If you rock the car back and for while shifting then it should release the safety lock!

why does it take turning off the veh. while pulling in on the shifter arm, them starting it again while still holding it inwards ever so slightly??
