    Faulty 110v outlet?

    I found mine loose also. It does not grip the plug very tightly....especially 2-prong plugs. I spread the prongs slightly and it would grip better. I eventually bought a short 3-prong extension and plug into the receptacle end of that. The 3-prong plug of the extension holds very well.

    Seat belt sensor?

    It is a setting. The manual gives the steps (pretty complex steps). The driver and passenger sides are programmed separately.

    Sync and iOS 6

    I also had the same results. The only variation I have is that I had the iPhone 4...not a 4S, but have the same results.

    MFT Update

    What does the 3.2.2 update contain (additions and fixes)? When I updated the first weekend, it did not list what they were. BTW - the update works for me in every way.

    MFT Update

    Does anyone know what new features-fixes are included? Fords list doesn't say anything about that....only that it takes awhile and do not turn off the car...

    REVIEW: I picked up new 2013 Ford Explorer this past Saturday (3/31/2012)

    I have found that the key fob is DEFINATELY interfered with when my iPhone is in the same pocket. Sometimes the car never recognizes the fob being in the car. I just have to keep them in separate pockets. I would expect it to be a bigger problem for women carrying both in their purses.

    Key Fob Range

    My fob has major problems when I have my cellphone (iphone4) in the same pocket. So, I don't keep them in the same pocket!

    Hail Damage

    I have had hail damage twice (on a dodge avenger). Repair was done each time and looks perfect. It was costly....$1,200 and $3,000. Insurance covered it without issue (minus $95 deductible).

    Love the Explorer - BUT need advice on a few issues

    The seats use something called "peltier" heating/cooling technology. Do a search on "peltier" in this forum and you will find several discussions about the seats, fans, and the heating-cooling system used on the seats.

    Door chime

    There is a way to turn off the seat belt chime. It is in the manual. It is a complicated process, but it works. There is a different process for the drivers side and the passenger side.

    My review of the New 2012 Ford Explorer (After 4 months of ownership)

    Lyhmes, Nice review! I have had mine for 1 year and 20k miles....I agree with everything you say.

    A Different Kind Of Start Problem

    I have had weird things happen also. I did figure out why..... If I had my cell phone (iPhone 4) in the same pocket as my fob, I would get the "key not found" message, and the doors would not automatically unlock when I tried to open them. By keeping my cell in a different pocket, I have no...

    Navigation Experience

    I have not had that problem in the 11 months I have had my Explorer. I put a "shark fin" antenna cover on after 2months and it caused no problems. It sounds like you have some kind of hardware problem.

    110 Volt Problem

    I have the same problem. It is just not "tight".

    Another video about the new MFT version.

    That is an GREAT YouTube! It is longer than I thought (10minutes), but it is very informative. I really hope Ford comes thru with what they are saying.....and I hope it comes out quickly. I am not having too many problems with mine, but I know others are..... And we all would like it to be...

    MFT Text Messages Signature

    I think you are finding that most of us do not have telephones that the MFT supports texting. I was not even aware that there was a line added..... I hope someone has a solution for you...... "Someday", maybe the iPhone will be supported with texting! (I am really dreaming)

    SiriusXM / Travel Link Renewal

    You got traffic+travel for an extra $24/year??? Has anyone else gotten this kind of rate? I got the $77/year for the radio.....but they want an unreasonable amount to add the rest ($140 if my memory is correct).

    Does Explorer have autolock?

    Calb, Mine woks the same on both sides (as it should). It sounds like yours is defective...the dealer will fix it under warranty.
