Description of the problem	Consumer complaint: odi case number: 10185415 in follow-up to the above case, i have been reading the subsequent complaints and read with disgust that alot of those people writing now bought the 2006 explorer as used. We were fortunate to have turned ours in under the lemon law for all of the same reasons listed in the other complaints but within a day or two of turning the vehicle in, there was a big colored picture of my explorer in mathews currie ford's used car ad. My problems were just being resold to some unsuspecting customer who thought they were getting a deal on a good low mileage car. It's is a shame that ford is still allowed to sell those explorers and they take no responsibility for selling defective vehicles.
