2014 Explorer continuously leaking coolant near front passenger tire. Dealership refilled coolant and performed a pressure test and was unable to duplicate the problem. One year later, the vehicle is still leaking coolant and I have to keep adding additional coolant. I am concerned this is a water pump failure and cost to repair car would be upward of

I'm getting cel error code P0016. There is a rattling noise on startup and sometimes during highway driving everyday. My Explorer Sport has 65,340 miles on it, w ay to soon for a timing chain. The dealer stated I probably have timing chain stretch and there no tsb to resolved the issue in my truck even though I have the same ecoboost engine as the F150 that the tsb 17-0026 does apply to. Why not the Ford Explorer that has same exact engine as F150 with the same problem" why was the Ford Explorer ecoboost left out of the tsb" there's an issue with the engine not model of truck. I'm hopefully looking for Ford to honer the tsb for my vehicle that has the same engine defect

There is an odor leaking into the car from either the engine or the exhaust. I've noticed it multiple times over the last few days and we have to put the windows down to not feel sick when we breathe. It happens whether I am driving or stopped at a light. I also started feeling tired while driving and almost fell asleep at the wheel in the middle of the day. I have now stopped using the vehicle. Something is very wrong.

Believe there is an issue with carbon monoxide in my vehicle. While driving for about 4 hours the carbon monoxide detector in my bag began to sound indicating the presence of carbon monoxide. It did not stop until I removed it from the vehicle. I was light headed and experiencing nausea at the time.

On Sunday septermber 1st while I was driving back home a light on my dashboard came on, it said "engine coolant over temperature" in red light. I was scare because I was stuck in the freeway and I was still far away from him and my kids were in the back. I drove very slow and managed to get home. On Tuesday I took my car to the Ford dealership and they told me that I have to replace my water pump, and it was a hard and long service and that it was going to cost me $3,300. I am surprise of how much that costs, especially that it happened on my 2014 Ford Explorer. I bought it brand new and I've been taking it to Ford dealership every 7,000 miles to get the maintenance. Plus, the last time that I took it in to the dealership for its oil change, they said that everything was working well. So for my surprise to have this happen especially when my car only has 82,316 miles. The light turns on when the car is in motion. I can hear the engine working extra hard to compensate whatever else is going on.

I was getting headaches while driving so I purchased a carbon monoxide detector for my Explorer for $149. It registered around 18-20ppm when driving. July 2019 I had the 'repair' done at my local dealer. August 2019, more headaches and my vehicle still registers 18-20 ppm while driving. The apparent fix did nothing to correct the carbon monoxide from leaking into my cabin area. Driving with air conditioner on and in recirculating mode.

When suddenly accelerating to speed over 65 mph, exhaust gas/fumes enter the main cabin, and linger for sometime, until I open all windows to dissipate the fumes. This issue always occur during sudden acceleration. I have taken vehicle to dealer several times and they installed external seals but issue continues, even after the fixes.

We have experienced a clicking noise on our car over the last couple of weeks and my wife has been complaining of headaches and fatigue during the same time as well. We took the car into the shop and it has been identified as a crack exhaust manifold which would cost us $1,100 to fix. I researched and saw this 1.3million reports of the samething. I called Ford and they refused to help with the repairs as there is no recall on this issue. I am not sure how you don't recall a very known issue that I now see personally causes health issues that could be fatal - plus you get with a cost that they are aware of. Not good business and very dangerous - it is sad it may take a fatal accident before Ford recalls this.
