98 Explorer Well-kept With All Maintenance Records!! on 2040-cars

Year:1998 Mileage:198000

Forked River, New Jersey, United States

Forked River, New Jersey, United States

Extremely well- maintained and cared for vehicle with extensive service records from previous owner and myself, its no joke,  I even have it’s original window sticker from Ford.

Perfect for a small to medium sized trailer as its equipped with a Class III hitch bolted to the FRAME as it’s NOT a unibody vehicle it’s actually a real truck, and also has a WORKING dual light port for both 7 pin and 4 pin trailer light harness connections.

I’m forced to sell this vehicle as I recently lost my job and am looking to outfit another vehicle with a snowplow to hopefully get some side work to help keep my house until I find another job. I can’t in good conscience see putting a blade on this truck and beating the hell out of it so I need to sell her and upgrade to a bigger truck suited to that kind of task.

Some of the options on this vehicle are as follows:

·         Drivers/Pass Airbags,  4-Wheel Anti-Lock Brakes, Side door guard beams, Height adjust seatbelts, Anti theft, Illuminated Entry, Child-Proof rear locks, Control Trac 4-Wheel Drive,  Electric Shift Transfer case, Rack and Pinion Steering, Independent Ft. Suspension, 4-Wheel disc Brakes, 4.0 EFI V6, Super Engine Cooling, Hvy Dty Shocks, 100Kmi tune up pkg, Trailer Tow Prep,  A/C, Am/Fm/Cass/CD, Pwr Windows, Locks, mirrors, w/ illuminated controls, Cruse Control, Tilt Wheel, Pwr liftgate lock, Load floor tie downs, Tachometer,  Luggage Rack, Alloy Wheels, Running Boards, Cloth sport buckets w/ power driver’s seat

 Additionally, this past summer the truck got a NEW intake manifold gasket, clutch and hydraulic throw-out bearing, and new brake rotors, calipers, and E brake. This truck is RARE with the tow package and std. transmission and is a blast to drive.

There is some rust, but it’s very little for the age and easily touched up, you can see from the pictures it’s still in very good shape and just about anyone would be happy to be seen driving it.

You’ll be hard-pressed to find another full framed Explorer with 4x4 and tow package that’s in this good of shape for the money I’m asking.  Please, shop around and educate yourself, I’m asking a fair price for a decent truck, pretty simple... *** I CAN DELIVER WITHIN REASON FOR COST OF FUEL***

Thanks for looking, good luck bidding!

Lincoln MKC recalled because start button located too close to touchscreen [UPDATE]

Wed, Dec 31 2014

UPDATE: Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker responded to our questions and let us know that the fix for the push-button start on the 2015 MKC has the switch moved to the top of the of the column of gear shift buttons instead of the bottom. Owners should be notified about both campaigns "toward the end of February." After massive campaigns from General Motors and to fix Takata airbag inflators, 2014 will undoubtedly go down as The Year Of The Recall. And with little time to spare, Ford is getting in just under the wire to adding two more to its yearly total. The larger of the campaigns is actually one of the most bizarre campaigns we've heard of all year. Lincoln is recalling 13,574 units of its 2015 MKC compact crossover in North America to move the location of the push-button ignition switch on the dashboard. According to the automaker's announcement: "Due to the switch's close proximity to other controls, occupants are inadvertently shutting off the engine while driving." The button is located near the bottom of the touchscreen, which can apparently make it possible to hit by mistake. Back when Autoblog first drove the new MKC in June, we came away very impressed, but noted: "... we're still not completely sold on the aforementioned pushbutton transmission selector ... it still seems somewhat gimmicky and it can't be operated by feel alone, as you might when shifting a traditional console-mounted lever from Park to Drive." According to Lincoln, there have been no reported accidents or injuries stemming from this button misapplication. Of the affected vehicles, there are 11,144 in the US, 2,033 in Canada and 397 in Mexico. To fix the problem, dealers are moving the button to a different location and reprogramming the powertrain control module. According to Automotive News, models built since September already have a different layout. The change was reportedly done to match the rest of the Lincoln lineup. The second recall covers 12,205 units of the 2014 Ford Escape (2015 model year pictured below) and 2015 Lincoln MKC in North America because of a problem with nickel plating on the fuel pump. The issue can cause the pump to seize, which can cause the crossovers not to start or stall while driving. The automaker is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this fault. Dealers are replacing the fuel deliver module to fix the situation. Of the affected vehicles, there are 9,038 in the US, 3,074 in Canada and 93 in Mexico.

Ford barely edges surging Chrysler for Canadian sales crown in best year ever

Thu, Jan 8 2015

The auto industry in the US showed strong results through much of 2014 with sales regularly growing year-over-year for many brands. That same trend carried over in the Great White North, as well. Canada posted its best numbers ever with 1.85 million units sold, up about 100,000 vehicles over 2013. The country nearly had a new market leader, too. The big winner among our neighbors to the north in 2014 was Ford with 291,951 vehicles sold, up 3 percent from 2013, according to Reuters. That success also handed the company the sales crown for the fifth consecutive year. In large part, the strong result came from the company's popular trucks, which represented about 80 percent of overall sales. "Ford moved into the number one position in September and didn't look back," said a note to clients by DesRosiers Automotive Consultants quoted by Reuters. However, the Blue Oval didn't exactly take an overwhelming lead for the year. The company nearly had to hand over the sales trophy to FCA after the company rallied in the latter part of the year. The Italian-American conglomerate had its best results ever to nip at the Ford's heels and move 290,004 units for 2014, a 12-percent improvement from last year. Jeep especially helped the bottom line with over 50-percent growth, according to Reuters. Only two other brands were able to break the 200,000-vehicle barrier in Canada for 2014. General Motors came in third place overall with 249,800 sales, up 6.3 percent. The combined Toyota and Lexus also barely jumped the hurdle with 200,851 units moved, a 2.8 percent improvement.

Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.
