problem #1

Explorer XLT V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

The Ford dealer said they couldn't 'find' anything wrong when we took it in for service.
If this problem (the wrench and engine light coming on & running rough) is posted all over the internet - shouldn't Ford be aware of it and doing a RECALL????
If you stop your vehicle - turn it off - restart it - the wrench light goes away and the truck runs fine. As soon as the wrench light comes on it jolts & jerks until you stop the vehicle and turn it off again...now the engine light just stays on!
Took it back in to the Swope Ford this morning for the second time - waiting for their response.
Thanks for informing other Ford owners of this problem!
