Explorer XLT 4.0L
I've had so many things go wrong with this Explorer, I'm never going to buy another Ford again. I was lucky that my vehicle was still under warranty when this happened. The vehicle started making a horrible grinding noise that kept getting worse. One day my brother-in-law, who is a mechanic, rode in my truck and told me what it was. He said it was dangerous and that I should get it fixed immediately. I take good care of this truck, yet its a piece of junk. For all the problems I've had with this thing (differential bad, rear window not working, split liftgate, 3 bad thermostats, bad hood paint), this year, make, and model has never been recalled. Amazing!
