Was supposed to be complete rebuild of the transmission. Was not. Only replaced parts that needed to be to make it go. Over $3000.00 for partial rebuild AND it was back in the shop for warranty work 4 days after I got it back. Only 2 things I have to say, 1 don't ever buy a Ford Explorer, 2 if you do don't ever take to dealer ship for work unless under warranty. Thanks. P.S. don't ever deal with Zender Ford Spruce Grove, Alberta Canada

Gear selector would not come out of park. They replaced a bad switch/relay but it looks like it's the actual gear selector itself, which I'm not going to have them fix at this time.

Throttle position sensor wires started to melt causing the check engine light to come on and the engine to go into an idle only safe mode. Found the wires melted in 2 spots, reconnected them and routed them how they were supposed to be. The shop that changed the engine didn't route them correctly.
