1994 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
"A sharply styled, comfortable economical vehicle that handles like my previous car (Cadillac)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission leaks like a sieve.
Front brakes wear quickly.
Heat shield noise under truck.
Vacuum lines keep popping off under the hood making the engine run very rough.
Air Conditioning never works.
4X4 doesn't work properly.
General comments?
Truck handles beautifully and rides very well.
The vacuum hose problems were quickly fixed with some clamps.
Gets EXCELLENT gas mileage!
It is roomy and comfortable.
Overall, I love this vehicle and would certainly own another one.
