First On Race Day! Say what you will but Ford vehicles are still the number one vehicle manufacturer on the road today. That's just statistics bro. My 2007 Ranger has 279,461 miles on it and the only major repair I've had to make was replace the transmission at about 247K miles. But, it's tuned, built and has a 75 Hp dry NO2 kit on it. I drive it hard! I replaced the timing chains at 272K miles because they were starting to rattle. I've towed my 5,200 Lb. camper all over the place with it and had no issues. I'm getting ready to hand it down to my daughter for her first vehicle. Now I know not every Ford vehicle rolls off the line perfect and the newer ones have more gadgets and electronic gizmos so a lot can go wrong. My buddy hated Ford too because he got an F250 that was a lemon. However, he bought a Silverado and that thing spent more time in the shop than it did in his garage! The rear-end let go, the tranny let go, one of the front axles blew apart driving on the freeway, not to mention the electrical issues he had. He now drives a Dodge Ram! They just traded in the wifes BMW because they were having so many issues with it. She's now driving the new Hyundai Santa Fe SUV. So they are all hit or miss. Just because one vehicle has issues doesn't mean the manufacturer's entire line up is junk! That's just my $0.02 about that.

Boo fucking hoo. People go online to complain…rarely do they talk about how good their car is. Mine has been near flawless…I’d recommend this car to anyone.

Ditto! You can find very vocal complaints about all car manufacturers online but they don’t hear about the tens of thousands of happy customers. Sure Ford had more than its share of quality issues but there are thousands of happy drivers.

jumping Jesus on a pogo stick! Cars a going to have issues! show me one car manufacture that hasn't! I have had cars from different manufactures and all have had something! I bought this one fully knowing that and fully expecting it, if it happens! but I am also moding my car so I take that risk even more. Name a car or a car company and go online and you will probably find a forum. Good luck man, I understand your frustrated and upset but one bad apple wont spoil the harvest!

You should go read the Toyota Highlander forum. A lot of problem on that vehicle. 2022 Toyota Highlander rock crack the A/C Condenser. Its a common problem with the grill having a big opening. I did replace it for my sister.

Just wow. My only response to any post like this is millions of Explorers are problem free, sorry you got one that wasn’t, but don’t assume Ford is always bad. Good luck with any future car.

After three years I still have had zero problems with my 2022 ST. Not even a minor problem. Just zero.

I understand your rant and I feel you are allowed to vent including on this forum. Some sympathy and empathy to you for your problems can go a long way. It deffinately sounds like you got a bad one. Too many people want to jump all over someone for not posting rosey glowing stories. I have had MANY, many issues with Ford over my lifetime and I guess I am proof that you can't fix stupid because I keep buying Ford. I'm a domestic vehicle guy first, but secondly, I have a hard time seeing myself in a GM or a Dodge vehicle. I have had (2) different vehicles engines go within the 3-year/36K warranty, I have had lots of transmission issues on various vehicles, electronic issues, axle issues, you name it. Lets all not forget about the 2012 and up Ford Focus issues they were screwing everyone with. It took them 10-yeard to admit publicly what everyone already knew who owned Focus's during that timeframe. I unfortunately bougt (2) Titanium Focus's at the same time in 2012 and could never keep them out of the dealership. I got Ford to finally buy one back and I had to lemon law sue them to off load the other one. I won the lemon law case!!! The point is, I feel your pain and I hope things look up in the future for you vehicle wise.

So in typical FORD fashion ….

So, I just ran through your posts since you joined to see why your experience may be …lacking and it is clear to me that you’re just ignorant of the operation, maintenance, and eventual modification of (any) vehicle. As a result, you are at the mercy of others who you allow(pay?) to do the things you can’t. In fact, you really don’t know just how much you don’t know. That is the worst situation to be in on ANY topic. Anyway, bless your heart and good luck in the rest of your life. You’re gonna need it…

I also can see that “stupid” sticks together.
