I picked up my 2012 Explorer on 1/17/12 after it was in the shop for 27 days. It still is not fixed. Now it vibrates at any speed and any RPM and can be felt through my gas pedal and now strongly in the floor. The dealer and the engineer from Detroit and the Field engineer moved all the engine, transmission, and exhaust mounts around to see if it fixed it.
The field engineer said now it feels like his 2012 Explorer and all the others he has driven. If that is true and they all vibrate as bad as mine, then I don't want one anymore.
- 2010 Explorer had been in shop for a total of 78 Days
- 2012 Explorer has been in the shop for 48 days total as of 1/18/2012 and still not fixed.
I keep getting told that no one knows how to fix this and Ford keeps saying no one else has had this same issue so they don't know how to fix it. Ford's standard line is "No one else has had this issue" ...... even when my issue was posted here by other folks. (Terrain management fault). I have gotten no satisfaction from Ford over any of my concerns and even if you write to corporate, they do not answer your letters. If anything, I have learned from experience regarding Ford and its products! Good luck, but don't expect much assistance from Ford ...... That's what I have learned from this. :thumbdwn:
Please if you have a vibration that can be felt through the floor and or Gas pedal and possibly a whining noise over 45mph, post a reply with your 2012 Explorer specs and problem.
Thanks everyone.
