2002 Ford Explorer Xls V.8 4.6 Fwd on 2040-cars
Columbus, Ohio, United States
Hi there,
I have a 2002 Ford explorer XLS V8 4.6 liter ABS 4 Wheel Drive SUV for sale. I bought it in July of 2012. I bought it knowing it needed, brakes, and an exhaust, and there was a small crack in the window so I got a pretty good deal on it. I decided since I was getting new brakes and an exhaust I had them see if there may be any future problems. They informed be that I would eventually need a rack and pinion so I went ahead and got that fixed too. I got all 6 catalletic converters rebuilt and after rear ending someone in a (thankfully) small slow accident sliding on snow at a stop light the grill and parts of the hood got a little broke up. That I did not fix. It's only cosmetic but there did seem to be a problem with my transmission slipping. So I decided to go ahead and get that all rebuilt also. So most of the engine is either new or rebuilt. The 2 problems left are cosmetic. The dents on the front and the grill, and having to manually open and close the hood. It was my perfect second car for work and to take everyone camping. its got 144,000 miles on it. Not bad for a 12 year old car. Things I love about it: Power: Steering, windows f/b, power mirrors, power LEATHER seats. anit lock breaks tilt wheel privacy tinted back windows cruise control air conditioner in front and back dual air bags 3rd row seating that can be folded down to either sleep in while camping or store groceries luggage roof top racks running boards automatic am/fm radio cassette player CD player Towing capatible Brand new battery I hate to get rid of such a nice car (to me at least) that I took such good care of. I just simply can't afford two cars anymore. So I would like to sell it for $4300.00. (negotiable) I'd consider it in Good condition, but fair because of the cosmetic issues in the front. All the lights and everything work fine it's more of a matter of your personality. I'm not a flashy person and since it was my work and camping SUV it never bothered me enough to pay the $3 or $400 bucks to get the front fixed up if you'd chose to you'd have a pretty perfect car. I, nor anyone else, ever smoked in it. If you'd like to send me your email I can send you lots more pictures. CARFAX for it. I'm off all next week so get ahold of me anytime day or night if you'd like to see it or test drive it. |

Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected
Thu, 29 May 2014Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013.
Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though.
"Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software."
Feds looking into Ford Explorer exhaust leak complaints
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There may be a burgeoning problem with exhaust leaks in the 2011-2014 model year Ford Explorer. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is examining multiple complaints of a gasoline smell in the cabin of these SUVs. However, the exact cause of this problem is still unknown.
"The agency is reviewing all available data and will take appropriate action as warranted," said a NHTSA spokesperson in an email to Automotive News. Owners seem to generally complain on the regulator's website of the smell entering the cabin through the air vents. At this time, the government organization has not yet opened an official investigation into the problem, though. When it does begin inspecting vehicles, NHTSA posts a detailed breakdown of its public data online.
Similar problems have been reported about the Explorer in the past, though. In 2013, Ford issued a recall for the 2013 model year of the SUV due to a fuel leak that could cause drivers to smell a gasoline odor and repaired them again later for another possible leak. In response to Autoblog's questions, Ford responded via email: "We are not aware of a NHTSA investigation. We are currently reviewing the case and in the event that any action is required, we will address it promptly."
Ford Mustang challenges Lamborghini in amazing drift battle
Fri, Dec 18 2015Engines scream and tires billow with smoke as Vaughn Gittin Jr. and Daigo Saito stage a drift battle through an abandoned Japanese resort that looks like a Russian village in this stunning clip. The high-performance ballet of these amazing machines sliding around makes this one of the best videos of the year. To fight this duel, Gittin straps into his 550-horsepower Ford Mustang, and Saito meets the pony car's challenge with a drift-prepped Lamborghini Murcielago. The drivers hit a curving road and show expert car control as the men slide these very different vehicles just inches from each other. Eventually, night descends, and they add some fire to the scene to give the stunts a more apocalyptic look. The production values for this short clip are phenomenal, and the editing makes the viewer feel right in the middle of the action. If you want to get behind the scenes of this impressive display of drifting, Speedhunters did a great job capturing the event in photos. Related Video:
