Check engine light - code was "front and rear left bank" running lean.
Check engine light again after oxygen sensors replaced.
Squeaky clutch.
Nice looking car interior and exterior.
Handling is very good, acceleration is good.
Gas mileage is not good at all. About 14.5 a gallon city driving, and 18 highway.
Check engine light has been my constant companion so far. Got another friend with the same type vehicle who has the same problem. Don't expect problems already with a 99, being used to an 89 Honda civic that never had engine trouble.
It's a decent car, but I anticipate trouble and will sell soon and go back to the reliable civic.
I have had the following problems with my 2000 explorer sport:
1. Air bag cable malfunction.
2. Radio combination cd/tape player malfunction. Cd section won't feed any longer.
3. Suspension system left rear is dragging.
4. Gas mileage is terrible.
5. Rear seats flip up if someone sits on the front edge of the seat.
I am very disappointed in ford per this vehicle.
