1998 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. The keys have a chip and cost 30.00 to replace, with great difficulty and time and only from the dealer can it be done.
2. The accelerator, sticks, had it back twice.
3. It holds back.
General comments?
Will not buy another one, they give you a year free road service and the people on the phone are rude and non helpful.
