Description of the problem | I have a 2006 ford eddie bauer explorer with 47k miles on it. I just had to have my second radiator put in. My first went around 20k miles and luckily was under warranty. Today, i had to spend over $600 to replace this. Based on the number of complaints i see and what has happened in my situation, there is clearly a problem with these radiators. Even my mechanic was aware of the issue prior to looking at my car. Ford needs to address this asap! |
