Description of the problem | 2015 ford explorer - when accelerating onto highway and speed is achieved, the driver cabin fills with exhaust fumes that smell like rotten eggs and causes eye and nose irritation and dizziness. Windows have to be lowered to get fresh air in car. Ford dealer made repair as directed on tsb 14-0130. The next day after the repair and when accelerating onto highway and speed was achieved, the driver cabin still filled with exhaust fumes that smell like rotten eggs and causes eye and nose irritation and dizziness. Again, i had to lower the windows to get fresh air in car. Therefore, the tsb 14-0130 did not solve the problem. I am concerned that the exhaust entering the cabin is exposing my family and myself to harmful fumes and possible residue in the passager compartment. |
