1993 Ford Explorer XLT review from North America
"Great transportation or people mover"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Truck loves to eat Radius arm bushings. Drivers seat foam has sagged since I purchased it. Paint on hood and top and progressively gotten worse, (fading badly) while the rest keeps looking good. Worn ignition key cylinder. Bad starter around 110000 miles.
General comments?
This truck has completely surprised me! I swore off domestic vehicles for life only to purchase this truck. It has been almost 100% dependable. I don't think it will ever wear out.
