FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on May 29, 2013.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with VISIBILITY:SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY . my panoramic sunroof exploded!! i was sitting in my vehicle, parked in the driveway and heard a loud noise. i got out and checked the tires and around my vehicle. i saw nothing unusual so i got back in, turned the air off and that's when i discovered it was the sunroof. i heard crackling of glass. got back out and stepped in the back passenger door and looked on top - it had cracked in the shape of an x with a small pop up right in the center. it was obvious that nothing had hit the glass because i was parked in my driveway and the glass was pushed upward instead of inward. i took numerous pictures of the vehicle sitting in my driveway right after this happened. drove it to the nearest dealership, within a half hour, as per the service mgr. for pre approval of warranty coverage. it was denied twice. ford's response for denial of warranty coverage : " as per section 3 of the warranty and policy manual, damaged glass (stone chips, scratches, etc.) is not considered a warrantable condition unless as related to another defective component. the loud noise as described by the customer has generally been found to be the time in which the glass is impacted in other similar cases. the point of impact to the glass is the place in which the glass is broken and bowed upward (bow upward due to interior cabin pressure is slightly greater than ambient pressure when windows are up and the hvac system is running.) unfortunately, this broken glass is considered to be damage that can not be covered under the new vehicle warranty at this time." 23 days later...my $40k vehicle is still damaged and sitting in my garage b/c this is an ongoing issue with these panoramic sunroofs exploding. ford can not keep up with the demand for replacement glass. i pray someone, especially a child is not injured or even worse killed by this defect. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 13300 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on Jan 23, 2013.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . i bought my explorer january 3, 2013. a few weeks later i began to smell gas fumes coming from the airconditioner vents when starting the ignition. it only lasted a few minutes before the fumes were no longer smelt. this continued to go on for months, randomly, whether the gas tank was full or empty, whether it was driven for miles or if it was starting for the first time that day. multiple passengers, including my daughter, have smelt the fumes and questioned whether it was safe. my mother and cousin both purchased an explorer as well & both immediately had the same problems. i called the salesman that i purchased it from and he advised that i have it looked at. shortly after, i learned about the mass recall that ford had placed on the explorers. i immediately took it to the service department (june 6, 2013) & was told that they couldn't find anything wrong with it according to the computer. i insisted that they take another look at it because this was happening too often & by this time my garage had started to smell like gas. the dealership decided to place me in a rental car & take a longer look it. i was told that next monday that ford would honor my complaints & have the parts replaced. this has yet to happen. i am currently still in a rental due to ford not wanting to replace my parts until they mass produce the faulty part. i was told that it will be this october before they consider replacing my part now. this explorer is dangerous due to the fumes and chance of explosion. it is also a fire/explosion hazard for me to have it parked at my house. my explorer remains useless at the dealership. my mom was told she shouldn't bring in her vehicle until october some time due to not having the part. this is 3 new explorers that are not covered under the recall and that are dangerous to my family and other families on the highways. i can only wonder if there are more. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 1000 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on July 24, 2013.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . purchased vehicle in early 2013. while driving at various speeds noticed exhaust fumes coming from air vents. called my local ford dealership and they advised that it was normal to smell fumes because it was a new engine. now six months later, i continue to smell exhaust fumes through air vents while driving but it seems to be while at high rpm's over 3000. i researched the nhtsa website just to make sure i wasn't the only one and noticed that the following nhtsa id complaint numbers are also associated with exhaust fumes coming through air vents. they are #10522939, 10521718, 10511749, 10503135, 10472937, 10497684 and 10493493. it seems that there definitely is a problem with exhaust fumes entering the cabin while driving. i just received safety recall notice 13s04 for a possible fuel leak but i don't think that will stop smell from coming through the air vents. seems to be that some kind of seal or gasket is not operating as required to keep fumes from entering the cabin. i hope that ford gets serious about conducting some testing for a possible fix or recall. as others have complained, i try not to use my vehicle when transporting my family as they could be exposed to harmful exhaust fumes. this vehicle is not safe. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 200 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on July 24, 2013.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . purchased vehicle in early 2013. while driving at various speeds noticed exhaust fumes coming from air vents. called my local ford dealership and they advised that it was normal to smell fumes because it was a new engine. now six months later, i continue to smell exhaust fumes through air vents while driving but it seems to be while at high rpm's over 3000. i researched the nhtsa website just to make sure i wasn't the only one and noticed that the following nhtsa id complaint numbers are also associated with exhaust fumes coming through air vents. they are #10522939, 10521718, 10511749, 10503135, 10472937, 10497684 and 10493493. it seems that there definitely is a problem with exhaust fumes entering the cabin while driving. i just received safety recall notice 13s04 for a possible fuel leak but i don't think that will stop smell from coming through the air vents. seems to be that some kind of seal or gasket is not operating as required to keep fumes from entering the cabin. i hope that ford gets serious about conducting some testing for a possible fix or recall. as others have complained, i try not to use my vehicle when transporting my family as they could be exposed to harmful exhaust fumes. this vehicle is not safe. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 200 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on Sept 23, 2014.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . i purchased my 2013 ford explorer two years ago. it has approximately 16,000 miles. on september 23, 2014 i couldn't start my car. i had the auto club jump the battery and then took it in immediately to my mechanic to replace the battery. upon examination, he determined that the positive battery terminal had excessive corrosion and the corrosion was so bad that the battery clamp had totally eroded. this required not only replacement of the battery but the battery cables. the mechanic explained that the entire cabling mechanism would cost approximately $400 and that the labor would be extensive because of the way ford engineered the connection. (the mechanic had to disassemble various components in the engine area to make the connection). the entire cost of replacing the battery was over $1,000. also, i was informed this is not under warranty. the mechanic also told me he became aware of others who had the same problem and in one case the battery exploded. thankfully that didn't happen in my case. i've had several explorers over the years as well as other makes and models and i have never had a battery that corroded to this extent and certainly not in a vehicle just 2 years old. i maintain my vehicle regularly and was shocked that this had occurred. i wonder if ford has designed this entire battery failure and configuration so as to create more repair business. while no injury occurred with me, it is perhaps just a matter of time before someone does encounter a dangerous situation. ..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 16000 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on Nov 26, 2014.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with SUSPENSION . while driving on a highway, my steering began to feel tighter and tighter, with the wheel harder to turn. soon it began to require a "push" to make the movement of the wheel begin. i pulled off the highway and the dash alerts came on. one said, "service power steering now" and one indicated that the traction control function was off. the manual said i should shut off the engine and it would reset these. instead, the steering locked entirely. no dealers were still open the night before thanksgiving, so i took the vehicle to a shop i've used. they didn't have the computer hookups necessary so i towed it again to another shop. they "cleared" the codes, and found the vehicle did not misfunction again. they alerted me to the recall, ford's #14s06 this recall included explores made between may of 2010 and februaryl28, 2013. my explorer was made very soon thereafter, within days, in fact. given that timing and the facts that indicate that my vehicle suffered the same defects the recall addresses, i feel my vehicle repair should be covered by ford motor company. ford motor company and the local dealer advise me that since my vehicle is not within the parameters of the recall, there is nothing they can do for me. i hereby submit my petition for an nhtsa investigation into whether ford has met it's obligations in this matter. i hereby request the recall management division of the nhtsa to ensure that the scope of the recall [ford #14s06] is adequate. i feel the scope fell short, in my case, by a few days, leaving my vehicle dangerously unprotected. i cannot repair this defect myself. there is no diagnosis available for me. the defect may be in the sensor, or in the power steering control module, or in the steering "rack". the local ford dealer advises me that there are no "racks" available at this time anywhere. the nhtsa is my only hope..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 87158 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2013 car safety problem was reported on Nov 26, 2014.FORD EXPLORER 2013, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with STEERING . while driving on a highway, my steering began to feel tighter and tighter, with the wheel harder to turn. soon it began to require a "push" to make the movement of the wheel begin. i pulled off the highway and the dash alerts came on. one said, "service power steering now" and one indicated that the traction control function was off. the manual said i should shut off the engine and it would reset these. instead, the steering locked entirely. no dealers were still open the night before thanksgiving, so i took the vehicle to a shop i've used. they didn't have the computer hookups necessary so i towed it again to another shop. they "cleared" the codes, and found the vehicle did not misfunction again. they alerted me to the recall, ford's #14s06 this recall included explores made between may of 2010 and februaryl28, 2013. my explorer was made very soon thereafter, within days, in fact. given that timing and the facts that indicate that my vehicle suffered the same defects the recall addresses, i feel my vehicle repair should be covered by ford motor company. ford motor company and the local dealer advise me that since my vehicle is not within the parameters of the recall, there is nothing they can do for me. i hereby submit my petition for an nhtsa investigation into whether ford has met it's obligations in this matter. i hereby request the recall management division of the nhtsa to ensure that the scope of the recall [ford #14s06] is adequate. i feel the scope fell short, in my case, by a few days, leaving my vehicle dangerously unprotected. i cannot repair this defect myself. there is no diagnosis available for me. the defect may be in the sensor, or in the power steering control module, or in the steering "rack". the local ford dealer advises me that there are no "racks" available at this time anywhere. the nhtsa is my only hope..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 87158 miles.
