I have put on 56622 kilometers since I purchased the car.   Steve's response I am very said to [...]

Sent in by Dr. Albert Donnay Describes two successful Explorer exhaust repairs completed in Waldorf, Md. Good news for Ford Explorer owners: Since the release of CSP17N03 on 10/26/17, a Ford dealership in Waldorf MD has been able to completely eliminate CO leaks in 2 Explorers in which I had previously recorded peaks during high speed acceleration of 6 and 24ppm.  This repair did not require the replacement of either rear air extractor.

Hi. This is my fourth Explorer dating back to 2014. I have had the CM problem with every one. I have filled complaints with Ford and they keep telling me they're is no known issue. What can I do? I had a seizure in August with no explanation and I can almost guarantee it was from CM poisoning but took the CM blood test too late which gave my system long enough to expel the poison. I drove about 1000 miles per week and cannot stay employed without being able to drive.   From Steve At [...]

I purchased my explorer in March of 2014. It was a dealer car and had around 5,000 miles on it. I kept smelling exhaust fumes coming in my car when I would excell fast. In December of 2014 I took it to the dealership it had around 20,000 miles on it. I told them what was going on. They checked it out and said nothing was wrong with it. At this time I didn’t know about the carbon monoxide issue with the explorers. So it kept driving it and I was feeling bad. Almost like I [...]

I saw your interview on CBS online. I own a 2015 Ford Explorer Limited. I noticed the smell if I went over 4,000 RPM's. Our local Ford Dealer did the fix that Ford is recommending to fix the problem. I had that done, it didn't work. The second fix that Ford did was to replace the muffler assembly with turned down exhaust tips. That solved the problem for me. I like the vehicle and am happy that it's fixed.   Steve I am very happy that you have a fix. You are the only person that [...]

I have a 2013 Explorer and have noticeably been smelling exhaust for months. When I took it to Ford, they told me they couldn't find anything and asked if maybe I had just been smelling fumes from the window being down. This is a known problem!!! So I took it to another mechanic who said this isn't even safe to be driving and Ford should be fixing it. Ford said they don't have the parts for another month. Meanwhile I am driving my kids around without the heater on trying to minimize the fumes. Awful!   [...]

Three weeks ago, I took my explorer on a two hour trip. Going, I slowly began to feel tired so, I opened my windows for some fresh air. I made it safely.
