H Hey, so I did finally find the issue with my vibration, it was the flex pipes in the exhaust. Ford has a service notice out about the flex pipe... Their solution was to add some worm gears around the pipe.. that won't work. They need to replace them. I had mine replaced and have had no...

The last time I had a loaner- the second day I had it, I literally sprayed the windshield wiper fluid and the windshield cracked from end to end. It was cold out, and I know extreme cold and hot don't mix when it comes to glass. But it was just the windshield wiper fluid. So the windshield...

It's on the passenger side, seems like very close to the catalytic converter. I was not able to pinpoint exactly where it is. I took it in and the tech looked at it in the service bay for about 30 seconds in the service drive through and then said, 'okay we'll I'll reach out to Ford to see if...

I just got my car back. They said they fixed the vibration in my car and it was 'smooth as butter'. They said the wheels were slightly out of balance... Well color me surprised but on the drive home, there was the same old vibration as persistent as ever. So I just tried your method, kept the...

Yeah that's exactly what I believe it is as well. But it's happening when it's just in normal drive mode. So it's the car that's putting it in those gears not me. I have to downshift it to get it to stop doing it. I keep thinking that it will learn to drive in a lower gear but after 11k...

What is the build date of your Explorer?

I have a similar problem, I notice my vibration when I'm driving it. When I feel the vibration, I downshift one or two gears and it goes away immediately. I have not tried doing it in neutral. Currently I have mine in the shop investigating this issue. I'll report back if they actually find...

I'm having the same issue.. I get a shutter when I'm going about 60mph then give it hard pedal. As soon as it gets to about 68mph it gets a hard shudder for a second or two then levels out. I can also feel it at lower speeds in the 30-40mph range when I'm accelerating and decelerating but more...

The painted trim is fire! Did you just take it to a local shop? Mind sharing around what you paid for it? Definitely thinking about doing it to my Atlas Blue Bomber!

I have this same problem, and it definitely has to do with the gears. Particularly around 30-40 MPH. When driving in 'normal' or 'eco' mode, the car typically wants to run in the 30 MPH range in 6th gear.. That's when the vibration happens. Every time I feel that vibration start, I pop...
