1994 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission went out at 41,000 miles. It is a 2wd, auto. The front tire wears. Ford says nothing is wrong. I had to have the frame bent straight. The front brakes have had problems. The ABS light has come on for adjustment.
General comments?
Ford, never seems to have a problem. All problems are fixed temporarily and they admit to nothing. This car has never been wrecked or even towed or anything. It has never been off road. I would not buy another. The dealer repairs are outrageous in cost. The transmission problems in Fords seem to be very prevalent, except to Ford and their dealerships. I should have bought another Toyota. Thank you.
