    Water Leak

    Here are some of the other major problems we have had with our new explorer that others may want to look out for. Roof leak 3 times and still a moisture issue inside the vehicle as we have to scrape a 1/4 inch of ice on the INSIDE of the windows in the winter -Sync screen goes blank at least...

    Water Leak

    WOW there are PLENTY of complaints just on this blog for Ford to have done the right thing, How many are on others or haven't noticed or had the problem yet ? Any one with this problem should contact a lemon law attorney, Even if you are not at the point yet to win a outright lemon law case...

    Water Leak

    I think Ford is doing a terrible job with this issue. They caulked mine also where it was leaking and everyone knows caulking only lasts a few years and when it starts leaking again it will be out of warranty and not their problem. Ford sucks

    Water Leak

    I will be glad to help when my case is over but really can't until then. Ford has offered me several cash settlements that keep getting higher as the court date gets closer but we are not going for anything less than a total buyback in accordance with the Ohio Lemon Law. 1-800-Lemon-Law for...

    Water Leak

    And Ford has to pay the Atty. fees when they lose. My atty. is not charging me anything or retainer as the case is easy and they collect from Ford

    Water Leak

    I would have it looked at another body shop, should be easy to tell if it was in a accident, I bet it wasn't. Bought mine new and the roof seams cracked and leaked all over the place and no accidents. The new Explorers are junk with tons of problems. Our atty. is working a lemon law case on...

    Recall on the way ?

    Water Leak

    If you're lucky they might get one leak repaired using their "approved" black gooey sealant. They will not re-weld the broken seem weld and after time and more flexing their will be more broken welds that will need re-sealed. Could this be due to trying to build a SUV on a Taurus car frame ? We...

    Water Leak

    Most likely a cracked weld along the roof and quarter panel, very common with these POS

    Water Leak

    I don't have a sunroof and both my leaks came from welds that cracked, one leak a year after the other which shows there is too much flex going on and cracking the welds. Do not worry though, they will through some sticky black roofing patch on your vehicle and call it a factory authorized fix...

    Water Leak

    Yep, mine was fixed once and got another leak a year later. Started a Lemon Law case, Ford made a money offer but I want out of this piece of crap.

    Water Leak

    I believe some are not leaking right away as my last leak didn't happen for almost a year after the previous fix in a different spot. Probably is some flexing going on and the welds are cracking and then leaking, and the stuff they put in the crack to fill it looks like nothing more than soft...

    Water Leak

    Not too late as long as the problem started in the first year and has not been resolved after 3 attempts

    Water Leak

    The leaks are coming from many different spots because the welds keep cracking. Mine was first leaking where the roof and side panel was welded and then near the hinge for the rear hatch and all they do is caulk the crack with black sticky stuff that looks awful, like house roofing sealant. It's...

    Water Leak

    All state laws are different, Ohio is among the best and Ford is responsible for Atty. fees here in lemon law cases

    Water Leak

    Ford offered us two settlement amounts so far on our lemon law case but our Attorney said Ford will buy this piece of crap back giving us every penny we put into it plus Attorney fees. I urge anyone with more than one occurence with this problem to get a Lemon Law Attorney as Ford is responsible...

    Water Leak

    About one year after our first leak we have another. Again a outside water specialist was needed to find and fix the leak which we were told was a seem that was missed at the factory at the roof panel near the hinge for the hatch. If it was missed at the factory then why did this spot just now...
