problem #2

Explorer XLT 4.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 180,000 miles

I got a 1996 ford explorer 4.0 XLT 4X4 It has around 180,000 miles on this truck, it very reliable but it now gets a very bad squeezing noise in the front end and I can't find out what the problem is. I replaced the wheel hub and replaced the cv axles I put brand new tires on it and replace almost everything under this truck, but it still has a very bad squeaking noise, is there any place I can talk to or call to see if there was and recalls on this truck and see if the recalls where done on this truck?

Explorer XLT 3.2V6

Vehicle was taken to Ford dealership, inspected and told replacement parts were to be ordered. Never notified as to when vehicle was to be returned for correction.

This was for brackets on anti sway bar. Definitely a safety hazard item.
