    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    After my transmission was replaced i started to hear clicks and pops but the dealer insisted that there was nothing wrong. Ford finally agreed to offer an extended warranty for 75k miles for 500 parts with $100 deductible. I really love my explorer but just hope nothing major happens again. It's...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    I picked up my explorer with the new transmission yesterday. I still hear a light bump occasionally when getting into the accelerator. I also heard a loud clunk between 1st and 2nd while in a parking lot, but at least it didn't shake the entire car like it was doing before. Other than that and...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    16 days later i'm getting a new transmission. Something is causing the front axles have play in them. Rather than tearing the transmission apart, Ford has agreed to replace the entire transmission unit. This is great news and i can only hope this corrects all of these issues i have been having...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    Ford dealer called and said that they were taking the transmission out to break it down yesterday, 10 days later! I won't even have it back by the weekend and my wife and i were going out of town for our anniversary. I'm stuck in a little Chrysler 200. I'm at wits end. This is the most...

    Its been awhile since i posted so i'll update you all on my troubles! After the first part (some sort of transmission mount) was replaced i still experienced the same noise. Took it back in and they replaced the front axle...apparently it had some "play" in it. I posted before that it might...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    Just an update....I got my explorer back yesterday. The dealer said the front suspension stab bar might have a defect and they ordered a new one. This would explain the thumping when getting back on the accelerator. As for the A/C fan speed, they stated that there were no known problems but the...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    Thanks Cory. Let's see what my dealer thinks first. Xplanfan, its happens every time i drive it. I don't really know if its the transmission or not. Its a light thump when i give it gas and i hear it when rolling to a stop. Another thing i noticed, especially in rounda bouts and stop and go...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    Thanks. I'm taking it in Monday morning to check out the transmission and a/c fan. The base doesn't have any type of automatic fan control, just the knob and various speed settings. I notice it when its more in the middle setting. The transmission thumps every time i drive it....i notice it when...

    2012 Explorer base transmission thumps

    Hi all. Just curious if anyone has experienced a thumping noise in higher gears when you press the accelerator? I've also noticed when it down shifts at low speeds I hear the same thump noise. I can feel both of them in the peddle. Another issue is during stop and go traffic....if I accelerate...
