Recently reported UNKNOWN OR OTHER problems on 2011 Ford Explorer

After driving for a little while and then stopping at a stop light i smell exhaust coming in through the vent.i only notice it when at a stop.

Started the ford and the backup camera was not functioning. also noticed the 'sync' screen was blank, climate controls were not visible (functioning) as well as the radio system was not functioning. went out and started the suv in my driveway, everything was correct when i returned home the night before.

I recently got the 2011 ford explorer.i keep getting this odor smell when i first start the car and accelerate.it lasts for 5 minutes,then it goes away. also, i recently started getting this vibration through the gas pedal on highway speeds.the car will shake sometimes.when i brake from highway speeds,my car shakes.i have brought it to ford twice and they charge me $2000 to replace parts,but the problem still persisted.other garage cant seem to figure out whats causing it.

Service power steering warning light came on, code was for left steering control module. one week later, power steering was intermittent, then went out completely. took in to ford dealership, code for safety recall 15n01 came up, ford dealership says my vehicle is covered under recall but ford motor company refuses to fix, stating "no household loyalty", because i've not purchased a ford brand new. when calling ford about the issue, they say they "will stand behind the ford dealerahip in their decision"; yet now that the dealership is ready to fix and waiting for the authorization code from fmc, fmc will not stand behind the dealerships decision.

Car turned off as i was slowing down for a traffic light. panel read " no power to engine" or something to the effect. was not able to take a photo of panel due to i was caught in traffic with cars behind me.

I have leaks through the seat belts on my third row. my car has a mildew odor from these so it has been happening for a while. i had carmax fix a leak that i noticed in 2016 but now 2 yeats later it is really bad. i looked up online possinle fixes and fou d hundreds of owners with the same issue and no fix. ford is very difficult to deal with for the repair. pleas look into this faulty issue and require a welding fix on the seems by ford. seems all information i have found with the issue is with the new explorer body starting with my 2011 year. leak occurs qhen it rained or when car is washed. it is so much water that we currently can not use the third row seatong as a seat. it is constantly wet.

I was turning out of my alley and the car had no power. when i tried to accelerate nothing happened. i had an orange warning light with a wrench come on the dashboard. i turned the car off and then back on and there was no warning light and no issue with the acceleration. dealership couldn't find a problem but this issue is all over the internet and there is a recall for it but not for my vin number or year.

Inside of car fills up with exhaust fumes when driving

Sync 2 problema el radio se friza los mapas tardan en abrir el la cmara de reversa se enciende corriendo funciona algunas veces y otras no el radio se apaga y se enciende a menudo sin razn alguna.

There is a extreme exhaust smell that comes in my truck whenever i turn the heat on. the excessive fumes are causing my children and me to experience dizziness and headaches. the smell only comes in the truck when the heat is on. the smell is still strong even when i crack the windows. it's unbearable at this point and i'm afraid i mat experience an accident, because i'm become so lightheaded. the fumes are still excessive whether the truck is sitting or in motion.

When we take a drive in our ford explorer- our children are getting nausea and vomiting. this has become a constant problem-even on short drives of 30 minutes or less. they complain of headaches as well. we have had to go to the doctors just to get anti nausea medicine hoping it would help, but- it hasn't. there is an emissions problem with our vehicle that is causing major sickness with our young children- ages 11, 8, 7 and 2.

While driving i 77 north (mooresville nc to the back side of stone mountain nc) with the air condition on, i started smelling gas fumes coming through the air vents. my son also smelled the gas fumes. we had to turn the ac off and travel with open windows.. the vehicle was parked while we were on vacation. i didn't smell the fumes as we were returning home but also rode with the widows down a bit as well. i however noticed that while i was not driving the vehicle for several days, that my headache was not with me. i have not used the air condition since i have arrived back in town. i have not felt good for months and had a constant headache, blaming it on stress but now feel that it is a strong possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by my vehicle. i will be calling a dealership to inquire if there is a possible problem and hope to get it fixed.

Strong exhaust smell when you start the car and then again when you accelerate to get on to the highway. intermittent smell as you are driving. it doesnt matter if you are sitting still or on the highway, you will inevitably smell the exhaust. i have been having health issues with my heart that we now believe are related to the carbon monoxide from these fumes.

The explorer was put into park and left running in the driveway as i went into the house to get my kids. when i got out of the car it didn't move at all. while i was getting my kids together i happen to look up and see my explorer crashed into a tree in the backyard. i went out to see what happened and the explorer had gone up a slightly inclined driveway, down a hill, through and aluminum fence, and crashed into a tree. when i opened the driver door the gear shifter still showed in park.

My vehicle produces unbearable smell that gets inside the cabin whenever the rpm reaches 3500 and higher and if the vehicle is in low gear and driving up hill and also when vehicle is idle and you rave up th engine. the smell that gets inside the cabin could make one pass out unless we roll down the windows completely to let a lot of fresh air inside. i went the dealership which i bought the vehicle from the first month and they inspected the car and got back to me that this issue has been already resolved before i had bought the car and its fixed already but its not i've driving the car now for about 5 months and very cautious with it as whenever the incident happens i feel very dizzy by that smell. so the issue never been fixed as my vin number does not have a recale when i checked it on the nhtsa amd in order for the issue to be fixed bin has to be recaled like other similar explorers with the same issue. most of the older modes of police interceptors explorers had recalls for same issue. someone please advice me ...
