- 2012 Explorer limited
So one week ago my wife and I purchased a 2012 Ford certified pre owned explorer. The car now sits in the drive way my wife refusing to drive it because the A pillar trim on the outer passenger side is halfway off and could easily fly off and hit another car. I'm guessing the dealership isn't going to help me out there.
After test driving it before purchase i noticed the rear brake disk were grooved really bad and brought that up to the dealership and they said they would fix that. Well they did turn the rear rotors but reinstalled the same pads on the newly turned rotor. I have always been told to replace the pads when ever you turn your rotors.
So far as a new to me explorer owner this is not starting out so well. But I'm wondering even how these items that are wrong can pass as a certified vehicle.
