2019 Ford Explorer Engine Problems

“My SUV is leaking exhaust into the cabin. The problem began when accelerating quickly, like getting on the highway or passing a car. Now the problem is often when just driving normally. You can smell the exhaust inside. It smells like rotten eggs. I have brought the Explorer back 3 times to the dealer and the cannot fix it. It has been at the dealership for over 8 weeks.”

“Very loud noise from the engine was told it was the supercharger but it sounds like a constant clicking. We took it back and dealership told us it was fixed. Still makes a loud clicking when driving , more so when accelerating. Called dealership, they said they fixed it. To us its still doesnt sound like a 2019 vehicle should”

“Burning smell (presumably exhaust fumes) are leaking into cabin while driving. Happens more often upon hard acceleration and with air conditioning on in air recycle mode.”

“My engine is having to be replaced. It's at 100k miles. Costing me $5k for a replacement that is a used engine with 77k miles and 1 year warranty. I want to file a complaint. Car is still in the shop and I had to get a rental. I am a single mom with two kids. I had to pay all of this out of pocket.”
