What Owners Say
"Shortly after the delivery of the vehicle, the seal on the front passenger's door was missing some insulation/sealant. The dealer attempted to repair the situation."
Anonymous, FL (2023 Ford Explorer XLT 2.3-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Car has a rattle since day one that sounds like it is coming from the front struts. I have taken it in to see if it can be fixed, which they stated they did fix it somewhat, but it still rattles."
Anonymous, MI (2023 Ford Explorer 2.3-L 4 Cyl turbo)"knocking in the front wheel housing, has been in the shop 3 weeks for front end & suspension problems. It is brand new, 5 months old"
Anonymous, TX (2023 Ford Explorer King Ranch 3.3-L V6 hybrid)"When the car is driving at 70+ MPH there is an exterior rattle under the rear passenger's seat behind the driver. There is a significant amount of road noise that enters the passenger compartment."
Anonymous, FL (2023 Ford Explorer XLT 2.3-L 4 Cyl turbo)"I noticed this problem as soon as I bought the car that whenever I'm decelerating from highway speeds I hear a loud click sound coming from my dashboard. I've taken the car to the dealership and they can't replicate this sound. They also gave me a loner 2020 one Explorer and I noticed that the car made the same sound, I'm not sure if this inherent problem with Ford Explorers."
