- 2012 Ford Explorer
Hi guys,
First I have to say I love my 2012 Ford Explorer Limited with all the bells and whistles including navigation and towing package. It's a great SUV overall, and really happy with the purchase. Having said that, right off the bat I have been having some issues, some which I have read about on the forum and plan on taking in to get fixed (liftgate problem opening in cold weather, warning from terrain management, and rattle from front dash and right pillar behind passenger seat) but what really puzzles me and I thought perhaps someone on here might be able to shed some light:
1-When I apply my brakes and come to a stop, I've noticed that the car sort of wobbles back and forth slightly. A better description would be that it feels like it is rocking back and forth very slightly just after I come to a full stop.
2-On a cold day i.e. today when the climate control is on and set to auto, it feels like it's circulating or blowing cold air, so if I change the fan to blow from the front air vents, it goes from being slightly warm to cold and then back to warm and then back to cold. It seems like the temperature is constantly fluctuating. Also I have notice that on a hot day, the AC just seems to under perform and it doesn't get cool enough.
Oh and one last question, is a fan supposed to come on when you turn on the seat warmer? I usually hear a sound like a fan going on and off while the seat warmer is on, if I switch the seat warmer off, the fan stops.
I appreciate any feedback on this.
Thank you!
