2000 Ford Explorer XLS review from North America
"One big waste of time and money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First it started with the sensors. Had to replace 5 at one time. It would cut off in the rain going down the road.
Then it was little stuff here and there.
The last and most expensive problem was the transmission. It blew up on a trip to the beach. No warning.
Biggest piece of JUNK I have ever driven.
