- 2016 Explorer
Hi I just purchased a new 2016 Explorer. I have noticed a few things that are beyond over looking.
The side windows are distorted and wavy, Dealer says it is from the side glass being laminated instead of tempered. It is like looking through somebody's glasses. They have no other answers.
When did they change to laminate and how can I get rid of these windows.
I can't stand to drive the thing. It is put together poorly and looks cheap under the hood.
This Explorer has been an adventure since day one.
On delivery I had noticed there was a major paint flaw, a ding in the nose of the hood, scratches on the bumper lower plastic and a dent in passenger door that was an apparent manufacture flaw. It looks like the seam was not formed properly and nobody caught it at the factory, this caused the metal to pucker and looks like somebody slammed the door with the seat buckle in the jam.
So far I am regretting the purchase. I have never had any issues like this on any other Ford vehicle.
I will be calling the complaint line as soon as I have some info on glass.
