    Sport Hancook tires - on backorder

    So, with roughly a month left before I get rid of my 2013 Ford Explorer Sport, I bring it in to get the summer tires put on. I knew that there was a leak in one, so anticipated that they would be potentially replacing it. What I didn't expect is that it's going to take 2-3 weeks to get the...

    dealer oil changes - computerized monitoring?

    I've got a 2013 Explorer Sport. It had an oil change about 2000 kilometers ago, but got the "change oil soon" message earlier this week and had 5% oil life left. Now, I understand it may have been a failure to reset the meter, but looking at the oil on the dipstick I'd say it was pretty well...

    Front end clunk - bushing failure?

    I've got a 2013 Explorer Sport with about 31500km. The front end has been clunking badly (metal on metal) and is scheduled to go in on Monday to inspect. This is the second time in about 3 months/5000km. The first time they indicated it was a bushing failure (repaired under warranty), although...

    Sync update versioning

    I have no problem sitting there and doing a system update, however, why is it so difficult to determine which version you have in the vehicle? Why can't Ford simply keep the install version numbers identical as opposed to some stupid internal number once installed? I know my dealership did an...

    Clock discrepancy after MFT maintenance

    Does anyone else notice a discrepancy in the clock time any time after MFT has gone through a maintenance cycle? It happened on mine about a week ago and the clock was slow by roughly 10 minutes.

    Windshield scratches

    I've got scratches developing on my windshield after only 7000 kilometers - I'm surprised at this development so early on. I know I have driven past a few dusty construction areas, but nothing that should have caused such severe scratches. Any time I've had to clear it off, I used the windshield...

    Explorer - made in Russia

    It'll be interesting to see where these ones are headed - strictly for Russia or for Europe as well? http://www.worldcarfans.com/113041156400/ford-starts-explorer-production-in-russia-video

    Adaptive Cruise Control

    I like adaptive cruise control, but wonder whether there will be any updates to how it works? The problem is that it unnervingly cuts out at less than 20kph (12mph) or somewhere around that speed. Most systems coming out these days include a "stop-and-go" feature, but Ford's does not. Any chance...

    MFT has frozen - what to do?

    So, on my 2013 Ford Explorer Sport the MFT (3.5.1) screen has completely frozen. Following the threads I've found, I've tried pulling fuse #29, but no success in a reboot. Has this changed on the 2013s? Personally, I wouldn't have minded pulling the main power plug into the fuse box as...

    Silver Explorer Sport - delivery on Wednesday!

    OK, I didn't realize I had to apply for the "Elite Explorer" to post pics. Pictures will be posted as soon as the privileges come through - sorry. I pick up my vehicle tomorrow, Wednesday October 10th - had a look today "by a chance pass to the dealer" and have to say that it looks even better...
