One dark cloudy day my 2004 explorer started to slightly shake and squeak. very annoyed..not mad though cause i didnt want to make it mad! seeing as i just rebuilt the tranny $3200 anyway thats on another section of this site. so i got a price to fix and $350 is the verdict so im gonna get it fixed to make a total repair cost this month of $3550 ...ouch! just thought id let you know. be cautious when buying a ford explorer.

Out of the blue the engine got a real bad vibration. After talking to a few Ford techs they told me to check the balancer. Sure enough the inner ring was busted. I replaced the balancer along with a new crank sensor. The Ford parts dept said that they couldn't keep on them in stock because of a rash of them that had come in.
