Description of the problem	Twice since purchasing my new explorer i have gotten deathly ill while driving, had to pull over and be taken by ambulance to the emergency room. I'm 70 years old and had thought it was a medical issue. However, i have been poked and probed for every possible aliment and all have come back negative and am in great health. Even my heart tests were outstanding. I saw the explorer stories on the news, looked up carbon monoxide poisoning and note those were the symptoms i had. In the incident last week i was feeling worse and worse as i drove and was just able to get off the road before i passed out, my vision had gone blank, i starting sweating with the air on, and i became extremely dizzy and disorientated. I spent two days in the hospital thinking i was dying because that's how i felt. I'm in excellent health, bike 20 miles day 2-4 days week, play league hockey, avid golfer that has competed at the national level, etc. This was not a 'illness', i'm convinced it was carbon monoxide posioning.
