FORD EXPLORER 2014 Power Train Report #10533188

FORD EXPLORER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2013.FORD EXPLORER 2014, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with POWER TRAIN . I BOUGHT MY FORD EXPLORER 2014 ON JULY 1ST 2013. ON AUGUST 1ST, 2013, MY CAR DID NOT MOVE FORWARD WHILE I STARTED THE CAR AND PUT IT TO 'D' (DRIVE) IN A PARKING LOT. INSTEAD, THE CAR WENT BACKWARDS WHILE I STEPPED ON GAS. I WAS VERY CONFUSED, AND THOUGHT IT WAS MY ILLUSION. SO I STEPPED ON BRAKE AND CHECKED THE DRIVE PANEL, THE LIGHT FOR 'D' IS ON. THEN I SWITCH TO 'P' AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS PUT TO 'D' AGAIN. HOWEVER, MY CAR STILL WENT BACKWARD AND MY REAR BUMP HIT THE FRONT BUMPER OF ANOTHER CAR WHICH PARK BEHIND MINE. THEN I GOT CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR WAS MALFUNCTIONING. I WAS 100% SURE THAT THE GEAR OF MY CAR WAS IN 'D', SINCE I DID NOT SEE THE BACK UP MIRROR ON FROM THE LCD DISPLAY, AND THE INDICATING LIGHT OF THE GEAR WAS 'D'. AND MY CORPORATE PARKING LOT IS VERY FLAT. AFTER THAT, I TURNED OFF MY EXPLORER, AND WENT OUT TO CHECK IF THERE IS DAMAGE TO THE CAR THAT I HIT. THEN I RESTART MY EXPLORER, PUT GEAR SHIFT IN 'D' AND IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL. I COULD NOT BELIEVE IT HAPPENED TO MY NEW CAR PURCHASED ONLY ABOUT A MONTH. THIS PROBLEM MADE ME PANIC. WHAT IF THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN IN A BUSY STREET? WHAT IF THERE ARE PEDESTRIANS IN THE PARKING LOT WHEN MY CAR WAS MOVING BACKWARD BUT IT SUPPOSES TO GO FORWARD? I HOPE SOME AUTHORITIES COULD HELP INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM, AND ALERT THE MANUFACTURE AND OTHER OWNERS FOR SIMILAR QUESTIONS. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 1100 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FM5K8D80EG. Ford Explorer 2014 problem was reported in LIVINGSTON, NJ. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

FORD EXPLORER Exterior Lighting

FORD EXPLORER 2014 Exterior Lighting Report #10552700

FORD EXPLORER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Oct 12, 2013.FORD EXPLORER 2014, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . WHEN DRIVING ON RURAL UNLIT ROADS, THE HEADLIGHTS AT TIMES LIGHT UP LESS THAN 3 VEHICLE LENGTHS AND OR BLIND ONCOMING DRIVERS WHEN USING LOW BEAMS. THE ISSUE APPEARS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECENT HEADLIGHT DESIGN WHICH USES A "PROJECTOR STYLE" LENS INCORPORATING A "HIGH BEAM" BULB AND A SHUTTER TO CREATE THE LOW BEAM BY CUTTING OFF THE TOP PORTION OF THE BEAM. THERE IS "NO" LIGHT ABOVE THE CUT-OFF LINE SO WHEN DRIVING DOWN AN UNDULATION AND/ OR DURING BRAKING, THE LIGHT BEAM AIMS DOWN RELATIVE TO THE ROAD. WHEN GOING UP AN UNDULATION, THE BEAM CUT-OFF MOVES UP AND SHINES THE UNCUT-OFF BEAM INTO THE EYES OF ONCOMING DRIVERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE NO LIGHT ONTO THE SHOULDER ABOVE HEADLIGHT HEIGHT SO ROADSIDE TRAFFIC CONTROL SIGNS AND PEDESTRIANS ARE NOT ILLUMINATED. SITUATION HAS BEEN OBSERVED BY DEALERSHIP SALESMAN AND TECHNICIAN WHO EXPRESSED DISBELIEF. DEALERSHIP MANAGEMENT AND MANUFACTURER CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER HAVE ADVISED CONDITION IS "NORMAL AND ACCEPTABLE" EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE NOT OBSERVED THE CONDITION AND HAVE REFUSED TO DO SO. NO SERVICE ACTIONS ARE TO BE PERFORMED PER THE TECHNICAL HOTLINE. OTHER CONDITIONS PRESENTED BY THIS DESIGN ARE ALSO PRESENT CREATING ADDITIONAL LESSER ISSUES. CONDITION IS ONGOING SINCE FIRST BEING OBSERVED ON FIRST NIGHT DRIVE. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 152 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FM5K8D88EG. Ford Explorer 2014 problem was reported in ANN ARBOR, MI. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. Vehicle had 6 CYLINDERS. FUEL TYPE: GAS. VEHICLE SPEED: 30 mph.

FORD EXPLORER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Feb 01, 2014.FORD EXPLORER 2014, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . THE EXPLORER SPORT (V6 TWIN TURBO ECOBOOST) STARTED LEAKING SULFUROUS SMELLING VEHICLE EXHAUST FUMES (POSSIBLY CYANOTIC ) INTO THE CAR WHICH MADE THE OCCUPANTS FEEL UNWELL . FORD HAVE A FIX THAT THEY DO NOT ADVISE CUSTOMERS ABOUT SO THE FUME ISSUE IS KNOWN TO THEM ( TSB 12-12-4 ). THIS FIX HAS BEEN PERFORMED YET THE ODOR PERSISTS IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. WE HAVE LITTLE CONFIDENCE THAT THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN PROPERLY RESOLVED AND WE HAVE LITTLE CONFIDENCE IN DRIVING A CAR WITH THIS TYPE OF FAULT. IT IS DISTURBING THAT OXIDES OF SULFUR AND HYDROGEN SULFIDE CAN ONLY BE SMELLED WITHIN CERTAIN CONCENTRATION LIMITS AND THAT THE "NOSE" BECOMES INSENSITIVE TO THEM AT HIGHER CONCENTRATIONS. OTHER PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING THE SAME PROBLEM AND I THINK IT S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE A DRIVER BECOMES INCAPACITATED AND HAS A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. IF THIS HAS NOT ALREADY HAPPENED.

TO AVOID HITTING ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT ILLEGALLY CAME INTO THE LANE I WAS ENTERING (THEY WERE DRIVING ON THE SHOULDER), I HAD TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION, WHICH CAUSED ME TO TURN MY VEHICLE INTO A CURB.

WHEN I PRESSED ON THE GAS THE CAR BASICALLY ALMOST STALLED ON ME...IT WASN'T A TRANSMISSION TRYING TO THINK WHICH GEAR TO SHIFT INTO ISSUE, IT WAS A STRAIGHT CHOKING OF THE GAS AND STUTTERING/HESITATING UNTIL I LET OFF THE GAS 2 TIMES OR SO AND THEN PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS AGAIN AND IT TAKES OFF, BUT IT A NOTICEABLE LOSE OF POWER.THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW 4 TIMES WITH THIS PAST WEEKEND 3/30/2014 BEING THE MOST RECENT. HOWEVER THE HIGHWAY SPEED WAS THE ONLY HIGH SPEED INCIDENT. THE OTHER 3 TIMES THAT IT OCCURRED WERE ALL IN TOWN, ON ONE OF THEM I WAS MAKING A SIMPLE U-TURN FROM A STOP AND WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS (NOT HEAVILY) TO GET UP AND OUT OF THE TURN IT STALLED. THE OTHER TIME WAS PASSING TO ANOTHER LANE AND GIVING IT SOME GAS TO SPEED UP. THIS PAST SUNDAY I WAS TRAVELING ON A 2 LANE ROAD THEN CHANGES TO A 1 LANE ROAD APPROX. 100 YARDS AFTER THE STOP LIGHTS. I WAS STOPPED BEHIND A VEHICLE AND WHEN WE STARTED MOVING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT WAS ONLY GOING ABOUT 20-25MPH IN A 45MPH ZONE. SO I SIGNALED AND SAW A VAN IN THE LANE ABOUT 100 YARDS BACK SO I PRESSED ON THE GAS TO GET SOME SPEED TO PASS HIM BEFORE THE LANE ENDED AND AGAIN NOTHING CRAZY JUST TO GET UP TO 45-50MPH OR SO AND THE DARN THING STALLED ON ME AGAIN! THE BIG CONCERN I HAVE NOW IS THAT THE FAMILY AND I ARE PLANNING ON A CROSS-COUNTRY ROAD TRIP THIS SUMMER FROM MAY 24-JUNE 10, 2014. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 3400 miles.

FORD EXPLORER 2014 Fuel/propulsion System Report #10582884

FORD EXPLORER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Apr 13, 2014.FORD EXPLORER 2014, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . FOR A LITTLE OVER A MONTH MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN SMELLING GASOLINE PERIODICALLY AROUND THE CAR. THE LAST TIME I FILLED UP I REMEMBER CHECKING FOR A LEAK BECAUSE THE SMELL WAS SO STRONG. THAT SAME NIGHT I WAS WORKING AROUND THE VEHICLE AND HEARD A SOUND COMING FROM UNDER THE CAR. IT WAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GASOLINE DRAINING ON TOP OF THE ENGINE EXHAUST PIPES AND MY DRIVEWAY. IT LOOKED LIKE THE GAS TANK WAS LEAKING FROM A PLASTIC FITTING, PERIODICALLY RELEASING ABOUT A CUP FULL OF GASOLINE. WE HAVE SINCE TAKEN THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE IDENTIFIED THE ISSUE AS AN OVERFLOW COMPONENT THAT IS DEFECTIVE. I WANTED TO WRITE AN INCIDENT REPORT WITH NHTSA BECAUSE THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT I WAS LUCKY TO CATCH. THE CAR IS MY PREGNANT WIFE'S DAILY DRIVER ALONG WITH MY DAUGHTER AS A PASSENGER, SO IT REALLY FREAKED ME OUT TO REALIZE WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED! I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS SITUATION MAY OCCUR WITH OTHER 2014 EXPLORERS AND THEIR OWNERS NOT REALIZING THE LEAK BEFORE A CATISTROPHIC EVENT HAPPENS. THE GAS LEAK COULD EASILY GO UNNOTICED, AS WE DID NOT REALIZE THE LEAK UNTIL A MONTH AFTER THE FIRST WARNING SIGNS (GASELINE SMELL). AFTER SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THE 2013 EXPLORERS HAD A RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMPS, WHICH COULD BE RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 2000 miles. Ford Explorer 2014 problem was reported in FRASER, MI. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control. VEHICLE SPEED: 0 mph.

WE RENTED A 2014 FORD EXPLORER FROM AVIS OVER MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND. MY 10 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WAS IN THE SECOND ROW REAR-FACING IN HER DIONO RADIAN RXT CAR SEAT (SITTING ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SUV). WHEN I PRESSED THE LEVER TO LET THE LEFT SIDE SEATS DOWN TO PUT MY TWO YEAR OLD INTO HIS CAR SEAT ON THE THIRD ROW, THE SPRING-LOADED SEATS LANDED ON HER LEG, TWISTING AND CRUSHING IT. NOW SHE HAS A BROKEN TIBIA! THERE IS A SERIOUS FLAW IN THE DESIGN OF THESE SEATS. THEY ARE VERY HEAVY AND ARE SPRING LOADED SO THAT THEY FALL VERY HARD WHEN YOU PRESS THE LEVER. I DO NOT BELIEVE THEY ACCOUNTED FOR CHILDREN SITTING IN REAR FACING CAR SEATS WHEN THEY DESIGNED THIS VEHICLE, IT IS LIKE A BOOBY TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN AND IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED..1 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Ford Explorer 2014 problem was reported in THOMPSONS STATION, TN.

WHEN DRIVING MY 2014 FORD EXPLORER AT ANY SPEED AND ON ANY TERRAIN, THE EXHAUST FUMES ENTER INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THE ODOR IS EXTREME, CAUSES HEADACHES, NAUSEA, AND TENDS TO BURN MY EYES AS WELL AS MY GRANDDAUGHTER, WHO IS WITH ME MOST OF THE TIME. BECAUSE THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ENOUGH PEOPLE COMPLAIN OF THIS PROBLEM, AND BECAUSE FORD HAS NOT RECOGNIZED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM, MY DEALER WAS NOT GOING TO ATTEMPT TO FIX THE PROBLEM. FINALLY THEY HAVE AGREED TO SPRAY THE UNDER PART OF THE EXHAUST WITH A RUBBERIZED SEALANT THAT WAS USED ON THE 2013 MODELS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. IF THIS DOES NOT WORK, WHICH I HAVE READ WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL ON THE 2013 , I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. THE EXHAUST ORDER IS HORRID AND I FEAR THE HEALTH IMPLICATIONS THAT MAY ARISE..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 100 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FM5K8B88EG.

MY 2014 FORD EXPLORER LETS IN AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF FUMES INTO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE DURING HEAVY EXCELERATION. I HAVE TO PUT ALL FOUR WINDOWS DOWN FOR A GOOD AMOUNT OF TIME BEFORE I AM ABLE TO CLEAR THE CABIN OF THE FUMES. MY FIRST COMPLAINT AT THE LOCAL FORD DEALER HAPPENED 6 WEEKS AFTER LEASING THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 10 MOS. NOW AND HAVE ONLY 5500 MILES ON IT BECAUSE THE FUMES ARE SO BAD THAT WE DON'T DARE DRIVE OUR PETS IN THE VEHICLE OR OURSELVES BECAUSE WE GET SICK AND SUFFER FROM HEADACHES AND NAUSEA FROM THE FUMES IN IT. UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE TRAPPED IN A LEASE AND THE FORD DEALERSHIP WILL ONLY DO A TRADE IN VALUE ON IT. SO I CANT EVEN SELL THE VEHICLE FOR WHAT ITS WORTH BECAUSE OF THE LEASE. CAN'T AFFORD THAT KIND OF LOSS BECAUSE I TRADED IN MY TOYOTA 4 RUNNER IN TO GET THE MONTHLY LEASE PAYMENT DOWN. WON'T GET THAT 8 GRAND BACK ON TRADE IN. HEART BREAKING BECAUSE THIS IS MY DREAM TRUCK, BUT IT IS OBVIOUSLY VERY DEFECTIVE..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):1FM5K7B82EG.

FORD EXPLORER 2014 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2014.FORD EXPLORER 2014, manufactured by Ford Motor Company had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . I RENTED A NEARLY NEW FORD EXPLORER LIMITED AWD IN MILWAUKEE, WI. I HAD BEEN CONSIDERING PURCHASING THIS MODEL SO I WAS PLEASED TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE ONE FOR A FEW DAYS. EVERY TIME I ACCELERATED HARD (WOT) THE CABIN WOULD FILL WITH EXHAUST FUMES. THIS OCCURRED EVEN WITH THE AC IN RECIRCULATE MODE AND WITHOUT ANY OTHER VEHICLES NEARBY THAT WOULD HAVE PRODUCED THE ODOR. IT WAS STRONG ENOUGH THAT WE OPENED THE WINDOWS TO GET FRESH AIR. AFTER THE 2ND TIME OF THIS OCCURRING, I DID NOT ACCELERATE HARD AGAIN AS TO AVOID THE PROBLEM. I ALSO TEST DROVE A BRAND NEW 2014 ECOBOOST AWD MODEL THIS WEEKEND AND IT DID THE SAME THING. I WILL NOT BE PURCHASING THIS MODEL BUT WANTED TO ADD MY EXPERIENCE TO THE DATABASE AS I FEEL THAT FORD NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM FOR OWNERS OF THESE VEHICLES. IT IS A SHAME, IT WAS A NICE VEHICLE OTHERWISE..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 12000 miles. Ford Explorer 2014 problem was reported in ORLANDO, FL.
