Loses Power, Stalls When Accelerating
2005 Ford Explorer
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Ford dealer.
CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2002-2005 Explorer has a very well-established record of expensive transmission failure at under 100k miles. The Explorer has an enclosed transmission which is typically replaced with a rebuilt transmission at a cost of almost $3,000.
Adding insult to injury, the 2002-2005 Explorer also has a massive problem with the rear panel cracking. While it's a minor annoyance compared to transmission failure, ironically the crack usually goes right through the Ford logo.

On several occasions, when I am attempting to accelerate, the car acts as if there is no fuel getting through and it sputters and it has died on me on 2 separate occasions. Dealership could not find any problem.
