- 2021 Ford Explorer XLT
The culprit is my local Ford dealer, the only dealer to have worked on my 2018 XLT, I have only had one oil change and multi point inspection done. I decided to top up my windshield washer fluid and noticed the red rubber shield that flops over the battery terminal was flipped up. I went to pat it back down and notice it really doesn't stay put, then, unbelievably, I see a dried out standard desk rubber band hooked around my brake (or power steering)? reservoir neck which was apparently placed to stretch over the terminal cover to hold it down. We had noticed some burning smells and the looks of the rubber band explains that. We are heading over there Monday, I cant wait to hear the spin on this one.
