CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2002-2005 Explorer has a very well-established record of expensive transmission failure at under 100k miles. The Explorer has an enclosed transmission which is typically replaced with a rebuilt transmission at a cost of almost $3,000.
Adding insult to injury, the 2002-2005 Explorer also has a massive problem with the rear panel cracking. While it's a minor annoyance compared to transmission failure, ironically the crack usually goes right through the Ford logo.

AC is working fine for front passengers. However, once you use controls to give your second (or third) rows AC, the AC will instead blow HOT air when using the ceiling vents. Alternatively, if you switch it to blow out of the 2nd rows lower vents, they will get cold air, except doing this will cause very Hot air on the driver from the door/floor area on the drivers left side. If it sounds stupid, it is. But its happening.
