CarComplaints.com Notes: After a half-decade of major transmission problems, Ford seems to have solved all the major defects with the Explorer. Read more »
We are happy to say that both the CarComplaints.com & the NHTSA data indicate no problems whatsoever with the 2010 Ford Explorer.
Not even 45000 miles on vehicle and the air conditioner compressor locks up?!?! Had to replace compressor, dryer, something like the Orpheus valve (back seat duel vents). Oh, and the serpentine belt because when the compressor locked up, serpentine belt burnt across a locked up pulley!!
Took to dealership last summer while still under warranty, shop said just low on Freon could find no leak. Charged and gave back to me. How does a closed system loose Freon? It had been powering off and back up while driving summer of 2013 that was a clue of the compressor already locking up and unlocking!! It should have been fixed while still under warranty but was not! Can complain but that is about it!!!
