My next concern is what to do after the Ex is repaired an the insurance settles up with me. Do I unload it and get another Ex or do I keep it and hope for the best? If it were just my wife and I would probably keep it. However, we do have two small children, and that's what makes me worried. The...

That was the first thing I checked on the estimate they are using brand-new parts from the dealership where I purchased the car probably why it's more expensive

UPDATE!! Well, the Ex has $12,419 worth of initial damage. They also said it might not be ready or approx 30 days yikes!

I did check with the Insurance company, and they did confirm that OEM parts are used for all repairs.

Thanks for the great info. I will check in with them today and I will bring up the subject of using OEM parts. I just assumed they would, however, you know what happens when you ass u me things! :)

Yea I was surprised too. Apparently most of the damage is not visible until they started removing parts.

I got a call this afternoon from the repair shop. The Ex has about $10K worth of damage, including the front rail frames. They had to tow the Ex to another shop that has the computerized frame machine to straightened it back out to the factory specs. It will be in the shop for up to two weeks...

They have Progressive, and I have State Farm. My insurance will just go after theirs for the damages. I couldn't sit around and wait any longer for them to start.

My insurance took over. There has been no movement on the other persons insurance after one week. The Ex was towed away today. Should have more details in the next few days. I will post an update when I get more information.

Thanks everyone for their opinions. I think I am going to go ahead and make the claim with my own insurance. That way I can get the process started and see how bad the truck is. instead of guessing and waiting. Thanks agian

It is indeed 4WD, the right right side sits almost 2" lower than the left. I measured with a tape, and the car is on a flat surface, and the tire is not low. So I'm assuming their are underlying issues.

My insurance is aware of the situation. The other persons insurance is doing everything in their power not to pay my claim even tho she received a citation. They are requesting more information from the local police. I'm not trying to have to file a claim on my insurance if I don't have too...

You are right, I Walked away with out a scratch. I was just trying to get an idea on the damage, and see what I'm in for.

Because their insurance is dragging their feet, and I was just trying to get a ballpark idea on the damage I know the numbers others are posting are not going to be 100% but maybe folks who work/own a body shop could give me some idea. So it's not foolish sir

I was in a not-a-fault accident on Tuesday afternoon driving home from work. The other driver failed to yield resulting it me hitting them since I had the right away. I hit them at approximately 40-45 MPH. The car does lean to the right now, not sure if there is any uni-frame damage. The hood is...

Veloduffer, I agree with you. The US models according to Ford's website show LED parking lights on most models. However, all models show this for "actual" headlamps "Headlamps, Bi-Functional Projector-Beam Halogen" I took that from the website. I could be wrong, but to me the LED's look like the...

I noticed the same thing on mine over the weekend. I was just looking thru the threads to see if others had the same issue. I don't think its broken since when I switch to the rear controls the top vents kick in and blow heat. Following for updates.

Thanks, I understand now. However, it should not be posted under the recall section of the vehicle health report.

I just got this message too. My Ex ran a health report on my way to work this morning, and I got the same message? Any clue on what it means?

Update: I finally needed my 1st oil change, and when I was at the dealership I brought up the whistling sound again. The tech confirmed the noise. Under warranty the mirror was replaced, the noise is gone. Unfortunately the mirror is not painted and I have to return next week to have that last...

32 Male. 2014 Limited with 302A Package. We had a Cadillac SRX. Traded it in for the Ex. Have a wife 2 kids and a dog and they all fit well in it!

Thanks Sgt1411!!

Does anyone know where the amp is located on the 2014 Limited w/Sony stereo system. I was searching the threads and couldn't find the answer. So If I am repeating a previous thread I apologize in advance! I think it may be under the passenger seat or behind the dash? My 2nd question does it...

The weatherstripping was completely replaced. The dealer had to special order it and have it sent via Fed Ex. The best way to describe the noise is whistling threw your teeth. This was with the windows up. For the mirror itself it almost had the same type of sound, but obviously with the...

Update for me. My issue was two fold. 1st my mirror was whistling made adjustments to correct that. 2nd whistle I had was the weather stripping. That has been replaced and all is well. However, since they only made an ''adjustment" to the mirror I need to keep an eye out and see if it starts again.

Yes, I am in Loudoun County, VA

I also have Ford Customer Service on it as well. I have been working with Allison from the Washington DC metro area she has been very helpful thus far. I will post updates when they are available.

Thanks for the advice!! I agree we pay good money for these vehicles and want them to preform as they should. I haven't been rude or mean, because that doesn't get anything solved!!! Hopefully the manager will hear the noise today I also have it recorded on my phone as back up. So I am hopeful...

Update part 2: I took my Explorer back to the dealership today. Sat there all day they called me at 4:45 saying they can't replicate the whistle. Mind you I heard it all the way to the dealership this morning. The Manager is going to drive it tomorrow morning. Now tomorrow more than likely I am...

Update for me. I had the dealership look at it and confirm the noise. There is a service bulletin regarding this issue. Mine still whistles, just not as bad as before but the issue is still there for me. Next time I have the vehicle serviced I will bring it up again.

I am dropping mine off today I will also post my results. Due to lots of Rain we are getting here in Virginia. my Appt has been postponed until next Monday.

I have been having the same problem. Let me know what the outcome is. Its so annoying to drive down the road and hear whistling.

This past weekend, my wife and I purchased a 2014 Explorer Limited 4X4, and I was astonished by all the features that came in the Limited package. We traded in our 2010 Cadillac SRX (Luxury Package), which only had a few of the features that came standard on the Limited. Obviously the SRX was...
