Description of the problem | I traded in my 2014 ford explorer because they could not fix the exhaust smell entering the cabin when excellerating or climbing hills. It causes carbon monoxide to enter the cabin which can make you sick or lightheaded . This occurs when the interior vent button is used the circulate the air in the cabin. Well my 2028 still has the same problem. There was a lawsuit in florida over this issue. Apparently it is a design flaw in all the late model explorers. It happens every time. Sometimes it is very heavy. |
