    More often than not the backup camera screen turns blue. I received a recall notice in the mail and had my local Ford dealer perform the update....... 24 hours later it's still doing it. Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

    I have noticed that intermittently upon acceleration from a stop the Explorer will jolt or jump forward with the slightest acceleration. Does anyone else have a similar problem?

    2020 Paint Issues

    Right after I made this post my mother in law was visiting and she leaned on the rear passenger door and her ring put a nice indentation in the metal.
