Description of the problem	We have taken our 2006 ford explorer with just over 20,000 miles on it into the shop 3 times due to intermittent lose of power when starting out. The computer software has been reloaded 2 times. The last time i took it in i told the dealer to keep it until it was fixed. After 2 days they said they could find anything wrong but believed there was a problem. Ford then asked us to drive a unsafe car to trouble shoot it for them with a flight recorder hooked up to the computer. Ford care and the dealer are both not willing to call back and fix the car.
