    Vibration when braking. Anyone Else???

    I had the same issue on my Taurus SHO. went through a brake job a year. Havnt had this issue so far with my sport but its very simply that the sport is too big and goes too fast to stop as quickly as we do. The sport has some supersized rotors that I think solve a lot of the issues but if you...

    Explorer Gas Mileage - including Ecoboost

    I think the concerns about the gas mileage valid! I don't think it is unrealistic to expect to get what is advertised on the Explorer. If Ford had not said that it will get 23 on the highway then no one would expect that. Mine is only getting 16 combined and its ridiculous.

    Ambient Lighting Problems

    My lights have been resetting too and it does it in between short stops. I thought maybe long durations of being off were an issue but if i run into the store and back out... every so often it will reset the lights. No issues with my phone with the new update.

    Push Bar for Explorer

    Every one is entitled to their opinion. I certainly have plenty about cars that I see. They have valid concerns about it possibly blocking access to the air vents. Not something that anyone that I know of has had an issue with but certainly something that Ill keep an eye on when I'm running...

    Push Bar for Explorer

    It doesn't block air intake to anything and I didn't adaptive cruise control or collision warning so no sensors to block. The guard on the bottom has vents to enable air to continue to flow into the vehicle. People definitely have been moving over quicker now. ;-)

    Push Bar for Explorer

    I have a bull bar sitting in my living room b/c I have to cut part of the air intake for the turbos under the Ex before i can even put the bracket in and then i have to cut the two notches as well... Im like you and hesitant to do it.... but I probably will. Worst case scenario, I can buy a new...

    Rear ended AGAIN!

    This wouldn't happen if the state of Va would pass a texting while driving law that allows people to be stopped for texting while driving. Its a secondary offense so unless you're speeding and texting, nothing anyone can do.

    Pictures of Ingot Silver Sport with good representation of actual color?

    I have had my silver sport for a month and I love the color. Although I really wanted to dark grey that isn't available in the sport, silver was my second choice. Its a great contrast to the black trim. The white with black trim seems too much like a visual war IMO. lol. I had a plat white...

    wheel nick, extra wheel?

    Google wheel repair in your area. There are several companies that will come to your home or work and repair your wheel while you work for around $100 per wheel.

    2011 Ford Explorer Transmission Problems?

    :thumbsup: I had a similar issue with my 2010 Taurus SHO. Same engine as the Sport. The transfer case had a failure and dropped a bearing out and it took them 13 days to figure it out, find a new transfer case, and install it. They initially thought it was the transmission though. I ended up...
