I noticed fluid on ground under front side of the Ford Explorer back in Nov. It was antifreeze. First mechanic told me Ford Explorer will lose fluid when hot out of the overflow, added more fluid. Things been fine. On May 11 I noticed fluid under the vehicle. It was antifreeze. My friend noticed that the tank radiator has separated from the core and is leaking through the seam where the top of the radiator and the core are held together with some kind of metal clips. I think this should be recalled. My friend knew where to look for the leak. He had just replaced a radiator for a friend. They had the same leak in the same place on their Ford. I want to know if there are any recalls on the radiator because of this problem.
