Ford Explorers were long a bad brand based on the tire fiasco that was proven, for the most part, was owner created. So have high expectations that it will improve. see full Ford Explorer review |

Freestar has had a lot of electrical complaints. "TRAC off" lights coming on with no reliable fix from Ford. Repairs reported run from wheel sensors, PCM, ECM, Computer replacements. Ford gives no knowledgeable explanation of estimated repairs. see full Ford Freestar review |
