"Appears to be an issue on Explorers and has been a recall for other model years."

"Rear seat belt gets locked and will not release. Currently on a backorder for the part with no ETA."

"JUST FILLED OUT?"

"Water seeping into hatch area has resulted in rust and paint cracking. This has been an ongoing problem that was never resolved"

""Water pump needed replacement. Since this is an internal pump, roughly half of the engine must be dismantled and reassembled for the pump to be replaced. This was a $3500 repair, for a $200 part.""

""I was advised of a leaking water pump and approved the replacement. Two to three weeks later, there was a major timing chain failure. In discussing this with Ford, I discovered that the timing chain drives the water pump and that during the replacement of the water pump, the timing chain was removed, requiring the removal of the gears and VVT system. The problem only presented itself after the water pump was replaced. Once the problem occurred, the vehicle had to be towed to the Ford dealer. Talking with the Ford service, he claimed the repair/replacement of the water pump did not contribute to the timing chain issue. The repair cost almost $6000.00. This does not include the water pump repair. I believe that an error during the reassembly process of the water pump caused the timing chain failure.""

""Turbo did not work, then the issue spontaneously resolved.""

""Engine tear down for leaking g water pump resulted I. Timing belts/gear replacement. $5,000 on top of $1000 repair month before for cracked wheel hub""

""Unfortunately Ford engineers decided that the perfect place for the "inexpensive" water is inside the engine. So the pump died. Well, for a simple water pump replacement they need to take the engine apart and what could have been a DIY job ended costing $3,000.00 and they even charged me for using my credit card!!!""

"Check engine light was off an on for several months. Remote start quit working. Second visit diagnosed leaking antifreeze which led to engine test down snd multiple part replacements inside engine"
