Description of the problem | Driving home after buying my brand new 2017 ford explorer i started smelling car exhaust. I thought it was as coming from the truck in front of me. It wasn't. It was coming out of the air vents in front of my face and i had the air on recirculate. It seams to come out more when you are accelerating or passing cars. After driving the car for two weeks i had to drive with the windows down or i would get a headache. It has less than a 1000 miles on it and its in the shop. They called just before i found this website and told me that they could find nothing wrong and to come pick it up. I told them that i would not retake possession of the vehicle until i spoke with an attorney. They called me back and said they will take another look at it. Just now waiting for ford to call back. I drive my family in this car. Do d should be ashamed of them selfs. Trading the health of humans over money. This car is so new i haven't even made a car payment yet. |
