Very strong odor of exhaust fumes inside cabin. i was using the car's automatic start feature and when i got in car to drive kids to school, you could smell exhaust throughout car. just recently purchased car and noticed this issue on 2nd day of ownership. when driving on highway odor seems to go away but if you stop at a light or are in slow moving traffic, fumes quickly build up again.
While my vehicle was parked on my flat driveway my daughter backed her ford edge into the rear of the explorer at a low rate of speed. the explorer which was not running and was turned off and in park at the time rolled off the driveway. rolled through an open lot behind our house. the vehicle continued to roll through the open lot and crossed the neighborhood street behind our house. the vehicle then rolled through another vacant lot, and rolled down an embankment through another lot. the vehicle stopped only after striking a tree and coming to rest. in all the vehicle traveled approx 300 yards and had it not struck the tree it would have crossed a busy two lane road. i got to the vehicle it was locked and in park. there was a good amount of front end damage and there was no airbag deployment. i was able to drive the vehicle back to our house but it could not be driven any further.
Exhaust smell coming into the cabin of the vehicle. smells like hot exhaust that is coming in through the front vents while driving down the highway. smells very bad and can't be good for you.

My vechile when driving at 65-70 mph still has fumes getting into to cabin. i have taken the vechile for this recall but the problem persist. i have to open the windows to refresh the cabin. i have taken it to the ford dealer and they tell me that there all service was done. c@n you please assist. this happens every time at those speeds.
Takata recall after purchasing 2017 explorer noticed severe headaches, digestion problems, drowsiness, difficulty focusing due to carbon monoxide entering the cabin. took it to the dealer for a recall but doesn't seem like that they solved the issue. also noticed a rumbling sound underneath the vehicle when turning left under acceleration, feeling like a transmission problem. would never expect something like this to occur on a $47k car with only 30k miles.
I have had this happen twice over the last year. when i have accelerated quickly while in motion on a highway , the accelerator pedal will remain depressed down. the car will continue to accelerate with my foot off the gas pedal. i then apply the brakes pedal several times and 1) pull off road in the first instance or 2) gas pedal will return to normal position and car will decelerate
While driving the vehicle after purchasing it, the front passenger door lock rattles. i've taken it to them 4 times before they supposedly replaced it but it still rattles. they did not replace it.
We have been smelling carbon monoxide in the cabin during heavy acceleration (merging onto highway for example); it is especially worse when the ac or heat is on. we had it "fixed" several months ago when ford offered a solution to plug gaps. the problem persists and has not improved. we often have our children in the car and i am concerned about their safety. we've contacted ford and the local dealer several times to no avail.
Getting bad headaches and feeling sleepy when driving my ford explorer don't like having my 7month old in the car.
I was stuck at a standstill in traffic on a city highway with my family on father's day when the dash lit up with multiple warnings such as "steering loss stop safely," "service advancetrac," "stability control off," and "hill start assist not available." i was not moving and could not understand what happened. no one was injured and the vehicle's power steering failed. the vehicle was not overheating. roadside brought the vehicle to a nearby dealer. eventually, two days later, the computer said we needed a new steering column (i thought a steering column should last the life of the vehicle...). there were no warning signs, no leaks, and no strange noises. of course, i was past my warranty. pretty hefty bill. there is an new recall for a rear suspension problem that was issued just days earlier.
When accelerating the ac has a horrible smell and also when you first start the vehicle
When accelerating, vehicle cab fills with exhaust fumes; smell causes passengers to feel sick.

I'm the owner of a 2017 ford explorer. at the time i write this complaint my suv is for the fourth time at the dealer ship, for the same problem since a bought it in september 2017: exhaust fumes entering the cabin. 3 weeks already since i dropped it at planet ford. on 05/24/2019 i went because i've been having headaches, dizziness and irritated eyes while behind the wheel of my suv. i had a cracked windshield that also needed to be repair. i went last friday, 06/07/2019, to ask about my car and no one knew exactly what was going on and the windshield wasn't changed at all. please let me inform that i have paid the most expensive warranty that ford has. last time my car was at the dealer they replaced the complete exhaust system. this is only like applying a band-aid, it only lasts until it falls down. my commute is 60 miles every day. i drive toll ways with speed limits of 75 m/ph. my suv smells like sulfur or exhaust odor in the vehicle cabin. the odor is present regardless of ventilation mode (re-circulation or fresh-air). this condition may be worsened ...
