- 2012 Ford Explorer XLT
Hello everyone, this is my first post here.
I own a 2012 Explorer XLT and I'm wondering if I may have a problem with my 4WD.
Several days ago I backed my vehicle into the grass in my front yard to keep it out of the way so that company could park in the driveway. The area I parked it was primarily level with it being slightly sloped so that the front wheels were elevated somewhat.
When I went to move the vehicle back into the driveway, it kept slipping on the grass!! ...and to top it off, only the front left wheel appeared to be spinning/powered. I eventually got it back out by putting traction strips under the wheel... but I was highly disappointed with the weak performance of the "4WD" system... maybe something is wrong though?
thanks,
Sam
