Beware of expensive waterpump issues!

Overall the vehicle handles nice and has plenty of power. That said, we hit around 80K miles and discovered a coolant leak. Our waterpump was leaking and the cost to replace was over $2000 because it is an internal pump that runs off the timing chain. I did a lot of research on this because I couldn't believe the extensive labor invovled and it's true. Ford has known for years they had poor design and location of waterpumps and apparently don't care. I lost a lot of confidence with Ford and will likely avoid them going forward. I am not a mechanic and even I know that was a stupid design for an engine. Waterpumps periodically go out and the labor involved shouldn't be so extensive just to access the pump! Stupid design.
New car, 3 weeks and screen goes blank.

Screen went blank today. Service dealer said his Mustang also does that. It did come up when we started next trip. What will it do next trip?

My Platinum 2019 Explorer

The styling of the Explorer, I think is one of the best in the industry. Performance is spectacular. Trading up to the 2019 Platinum, from the 2014 Limited was a wonderful surprise. If anyone is considering a upgraded version of an SUV the Platinum Explorer is what I’d recommend.

When you first see this vehicle, you would think it's to big to drive. The length and width of the SUV. I couldn't believe how smooth and studied the explorer was, the navigation system is wonderful, spacious seats, and luggage room. Also a gas saver I did a fill up twice it only took $36.75 to get from Alabama to Gulfport MS. I really enjoyed riding in the SUV, this will be my next own vehicle. Thanks Ford

Transmission Failure

I purchased my Ford Explorer Sport about a year ago and the transmission failed. Fortunately I was driving on a local street and not on a freeway as when it happened I came to a complete stop. I have 12,652 miles on this vehicle so warranty wil cover it but now I have a little anxiety it will happen again in a less convienent time and location so I will most likely trade it in for another vehicle.
