| Description of the problem | During hard acceleration, the smell of rotten eggs enters the cabin regardless of what type of fan is blowing (air conditioning - fresh air or recirculate). Lincoln under a tsb claimed that they fixed the problem by resealing the rear seals to the rear hatch. The smell continues and if you do research, this is a widespread problem in ford edge's, explorer's and lincoln mkx's. Ford doesn't seem to think that exhaust entering the cabin for which they do not have fix for is worthy of a system wide recall. I suspect that carbon monoxide and other poisonous gases are entering the cabin and cannot be good for the occupants... This issue was present from the first day i leased the vehicle. |
