blwnsmoke Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) As many know, I've chimed in quite a bit on the Explorer EPAS and how I feel Ford should be recalling them all. Well they finally stepped up and extended the warranty to 10year/150,000 miles on them. Although I would like to give them credit for this and say "way to go Ford", it has taken them almost 5 years to finally admit this and do something worth a damn for the customer. Regardless, they are now admitting there is an issue with them (which tells me this is a much larger scale then just a few failures) and there are many Explorer owners that will get getting refunds. Although a recall and replacement of them all would have been my 1st choice, a 150,000 mile warranty is #2 in my eyes and a decent time to have a part covered. http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/acms/cs...4V286-6751.pdf Edited July 7, 2015 by blwnsmoke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fordmantpw Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Good to hear! Wonder if this will follow through on other vehicles with EPAS, or is this limited to the Explorer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blwnsmoke Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Good to hear! Wonder if this will follow through on other vehicles with EPAS, or is this limited to the Explorer? Good question.. no clue. Based on the NHTSA article, it is only 11-13 Explorers so Ford must feel they have corrected the issue by the 14MY. I have seen a few post of failures on the 14/15 but could see it as just being crap luck on a defective part. Hopefully Ford will step up where they need to elsewhere.
