Extension of the exhuast pipes did not work. Totally fed up with the vehicle. Problem is whenever I take it to Ford, I am unable to replicate the smell.
I have now taken the Explorer to Al Tayer for the third time to get this smell problem fixed. Now they have extended the exhuast tail pipes by two inches. They have assured me that the smell will not be experienced again. Finger crossed! At least this way they admit that it was the exhuast fumes...
Well Al Tayer Motors are lying to you. I have taken my Explorer twice for this issue. They even performed the TSB. But nothing worked. You are surely not the first one to complain. Ask the test drivers there and they are so familiar with the smell that they don't even want to take a test drive...
Explorer TSB
Just checked with the Dubai agent. Very surprised to see that i had actually emailed them the TSB. He said Ford has not informed them as yet. But bring in the car we will work on it anyway.
Cory, I have the same problem
Same problem exhaust gas leaking into the cabin for my Explorer 2012. Done 6k km and bought it about a month back from Dubai dealership under their pre-owned section. Taken it twice to the dealer but the problem is still there.
