Welcome to the Forum dude_3.:wavey:had my '11 in for a standard 5k service last week and heard noise backing out of my garage this morning. Stopped and got out to find the air dam lying on the driveway :scratch:. Ran some errands to stock up on some holiday cheer and upon returning checked this forum and found this thread. Interestingly I just returned from 2-day trip to pick up my son yesterday (~500 miles roundtrip) -- all interstate. Between work and weekend trips to visit kids my ride has been seeing a lot more of the interstate than it has anything off road, so I don't believe it was an impact. All 3 screws are still there but 2 are missing clips. Believe I will contact dealer (Falls Church, VA) in the morning to explain situation and to ask if there is a TSB on this as it appears to have happened to others. Will update the forum to let everyone know what happened. Glad I didn't leave it on the NJ turnpike.

2011 Explorer LTD w/towing package
Are you talking about the air deflector that runs the width of the front bumper or the air deflector/intake that channels air under the vehicle for cooling the engine for those that have the tow package. I'm guessing it is the latter. In some cases this has happened after an oil change has been done. I believe some posts have said the air dam has to be removed for that to be done. In either case, there is no TSB that I am aware. There is a thread on 2011 - 2012 Explorer TSB's in the 'Sticky' section on the first page.
