2021 Ford Explorer Timberline Prototypes Spied
blwnsmoke replied to Broncofan7's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
I personally think it looks awful!! -
A great story on EV charging. This isn't a bash post on Tesla, just a great example of issues that will come up for cold climates. https://insideevs.com/news/460919/canada-tesla-driver-failed-supercharge-30c-weather/

Tesla Stops Model S, X production for 18 Days Due to Low Demand
blwnsmoke replied to rmc523's topic in Competing Products
Pretty sure any time a manufacturer does this, try get their own thread too (including Ford), nice try. And I know exactly what Musk is doing. Stop producing the higher margin more expensive vehicles and push the hell out of the lower prices, lower margin vehicles so they can try to hit their sales goal so their stock keeps rising. Exactly why Musk is offering free supercharging now for new owners if they buy this month. Anything he can do to make that number regardless of profit. -
Tesla Stops Model S, X production for 18 Days Due to Low Demand

Looking forward sir to how this news sir is spun positively. -
I see nothing wrong here but a poor PDI and a huge fail on Roman's part. Why didn't he ask for both fobs when he drove it away? He had to sign the odometer statement which has on it the mileage at time of sale. So he signed a document without reading the bare minimum on it? Who cares when it was built, a 2020 is a 2020. Bad window switch, yup, that should have been caught by the PDI as well as Roman when they drove it away. As stated above, pure click bait.

Let's Rename the Explorer: Torpedo!
blwnsmoke replied to ZanatWork's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
Not surprised, been saying it for months. The explorer is plagued with issues. Transmissions, electrical... It is all over FB and the forums. Every day I see another person posting.. and with pictures to prove it. -
Factory Warranty; Duralast parts??
blwnsmoke replied to ffamousamos's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
PURCHASED Motorcraft parts have a 2yr unlimited mile warranty, not warranty parts. -
So are the vehicles built for free at the Springfield plant for GM? Kudos to GM if they are built for free. If not, then it is still another plant with another expense.

Ford earnings rebound big in Q3 2020

I take CR as serious as JD Powers Initial Quality awards. I thought you had a real source. My mistake. -

Ford earnings rebound big in Q3 2020
blwnsmoke replied to fuzzymoomoo's topic in Ford Motor Company Discussion Forum
Yes, it definitely has to be. The amount of buybacks going on on the explorer forum is ridiculous. -
So within the last week, Tesla has no dropped the 7 day return period and also dropped their 4yr/50k used warranty to now 1yr/10k. Tesla never announced it, they just quietly changed their terms in the fine print if you will for others to spot it. https://www.yahoo.com/autos/tesla-just-slashed-warranty-used-193000306.html

Don't care what Ford is saying. I see it all over Facebook and the forum I mod. There are significant issues with the Explorer. No different then the 5th generation back in 2010/2011. Took them a few years to work everything out and still the EPAS and PTU are major problems. 2020 still has a ton a of trans issues (leaks, failure, full replacements) as well as a ton of electrical failure sending all kinds of warning lights on the dash. I have seen more buybacks and lemon laws then I would ever expect. On top of that, let's not mention the 20 recalls, TSBs and SSMs issued on the 2020 already. https://www.explorerforum.com/forums/threads/6th-generation-ex-and-aviator-recalls-tsb-fsa-and-ssm.481543/

What do you guys think of the new Corvette?
blwnsmoke replied to probowler's topic in Competing Products
I was passed by one on the highway. The front and sides looked great but the ass end was terrible. Too flat and too wide.. did not look right at all. -
Don't know about the hybrid but there are still plenty of issues with these explorers.

So they are only charging you for 26,000 miles? Your June post about your trans you had 50k on it. Sounds like they are cutting you a break on the mileage. If you are already in escrow, they already pulled your credit. Shouldn't matter if all you are doing is refinancing the same loan you have. Also nice to see your couple of posts are just complaining about your truck. Why come here? Clearly not here to participate or help anyone else out.

Can anyone post the actual documentation on this? Just was issued, I believe it is an updated trans cooler support bracket that address all the oil cooler leaks.
