    Lease End Question Regarding Return or Buyout

    Datascan just inspected my 2012 Explorer Limited whose lease was up (24 mos). The guy wrote a something about scratched rear backup sensor, but that was it. Car was pretty dirty but its been impossible to get a car wash in NJ with all the snow. Nonetheless, no excessive wear found, and didn't...

    FJC2's 2014 Explorer Sport Blog-like thing

    My wifes is on the way. Red Sport with 401 + sunroof. Should be at dealers next week. I just emailed asking about the cell phone remote start. My wife works a bit far from the parking lot and no way keys would start it from the distance, so figured it would be a cool option. She has a 2012...

    Have slight wind noise on passenger side, not pillar rattle

    I have same wind noise. Picked up my new 2012 yesterday and dealer said they couldnt do TSB fix (I have a Sept build date) because all parts backordered. But thanks for tip on electrical tape. Will try that in meantime. Noise is annoying. Around 65-70mph.

    A faster, simpler, better myford touch is here - MFT Update

    Anyone else experiencing issues with their iPhone and Bluetooth audio? Sometimes it wont work the iPhone, and instead I have to hit play on the iPhone to get the audio to play. Other times I can fast forward, or rewind from MFT. Picked up my new Explorer Limited yesterday - 2012 (september...

    A faster, simpler, better myford touch is here - MFT Update

    Dealer did the update and fixing A-pillar TSB before I take delivery on her on Wednesday. I'm psyched! I got Limited with 302a, Rims & Sunroof.

    A faster, simpler, better myford touch is here - MFT Update

    Is it unreasonable to insist the dealer install this before I pick up my new 2012 Limited (with August 2011 build date) this Friday? I was also asking that the A Pillar TSB be done prior to delivery as well. Spoke to sales guy today who is 'looking into it'.

    My 2012 Ford Explorer Limited

    Dumb question but why do you need to remove the wheels to get mudflaps on? Cant fit wrench in there or 90 degree screwdriver? Just finalized deal on my white platinum limited. Your photos reinforce why the white was worth an extra 15 bucks a month! lol---

    Dealer not dealing ...

    Yep I totally get that. What I was really wondering is if and perhaps when, historically they might start putting incentives back on the table for newest models. Someone like me, who basically has a 3 month window to buy (now until end of May), am I better off trying to get better deal on...

    Dealer not dealing ...

    I had a lease deal worked on a 2012, but after reading about some of the TSBs etc, thought I might as well wait for 2013. The offer for the 2012 had $500 cash from ford and $1000 cash for coming off a lease from another manufacturer. Can I get the same now for 2013? Ford's web site still does...

    Discount on 2013 Limited Explorer --- Just Placed the Order !

    Snowy- Am in the same boat. Had deal worked out for 2012, but then found this board and saw number of TSBs and issues on 2012, so hoped that new production line would fix it. Only bummer I see is the 302a on the 2013 Limited is $1000 more than 2012. My options are white color, polished wheels...
