Description of the problem	I bought a 2006 explorer in 2010 and in 5 years i have had a sensor that's goes inside the transmission replaced, then transmission rebuilted, and the radiator replaced twice. Now that it's paid off leaking coolant again making it run hot. Now it saying check the charging system and stop on me on the freeway and now won't stay started. Thought i was doing everything right with the maintenance of the truck but it keeps breaking down. Also the wrench thing is on and won't stay started even while pressing the gas pedal to the floor all after i just had another sensor replaced. And besides the radiator leaking again that plastic thing they call a thermostat housing may be cracked. I feel i'm spending more money repairing things on this truck in 5 years that most people spend on a new car. If i had seen all the problems this model year was having would have went a different brand.
