2012 New Ford Explorer

[macsd]

i got my unit at ford alabang lastweek . my headlight had condensation when raining or get wet,
is that normal or factory defect.

Condensation is not normal on any headlight. some models even have wiper on headlight just to make sure it does not
impede the lighting. I suggest you bring it back to casa.

i got my unit at ford alabang lastweek . my headlight had condensation when raining or get wet,
is that normal or factory defect.

i havent noticed that on my unit but the manual says:

When normal condensation occurs, a thin film of mist can form on the interior of the
lens. The thin mist eventually clears and exits through the vents during
normal operation. Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours under dry
weather conditions.

Examples of acceptable condensation are:
• Presence of thin mist (no streaks, drip marks or droplets)
• Fine mist covers less than 50% of the lens

Examples of unacceptable moisture (usually caused by a lamp water
leak) are:
• Water puddle inside the lamp
• Large water droplets, drip marks or streaks present on the interior of
the lens
Take your vehicle to a dealer for service if any of the above conditions of
unacceptable moisture are present.

Has anyone experienced condensation on a new 2012 Explorer Limited. Is this common and what would viable remedies be to this. I understand this happening over time, but have concerns since it is a new vehicle. Thanks

[foresterx]

don't have any condensation on mine so better bring it back to casa and make sure that they fix it.

btw on my forester there was always moisture on the rear taillights when it rains but goes away right after i use it, subaru addressed this issue and said it was normal for the forester's and imprezas something to do with the size of the lamp and the temperature difference, especially in rain or snow but it should go away when the temperature goes up. that's for subaru's though not sure about other cars and for taillights only and should go away.

How much for the whole set? I'm only looking at getting the cargo liner, pwede na siguro 3M for the 1st - 3rd row. Dati namamahalan ako sa 3M pero nang malamang ko price ng WeatherTech, biglang naging mura ang 3M :D

When you stow the 3rd row, no need to remove the mat?

May distributor ba dito ng Husky brand?

Tingin ko mas sulit ang first row weathertech liners than the cargo liner because thats where you the driver will be using most of the time. Unless you carry bulky cargo (lalo na kung may wet materials), it's not really needed to carry it all the time. But of course that's just me.

The whole set cost 23k plus after 10% discount... hehe, expensive talaga

you do not need to remove the weathertech 3rd row floor liner in order to stow the seat.

I did not find any Husky distributor here in ph when i googled it... anybody know?

Nice ride spynz... the white explorer is really an eye-catcher.

*prostee: Anong color ng ride mo?

I have a feeling that I will buy the whole package Still have a few hours to decide Gusto ko kasi ng cargo liner para ma-protect yung carpet pag naka-stow yung 3rd row. And I load it with 5-gallon water containers, sometimes pag may pinapadala brother ko ng mags, etc... In short, I maximize the cargo space para naman di sayang yung laki ng Explorer

[prostee]

Hehe, initially first 3 rows lang din gusto ko but when i saw how they fit i ended up buying the cargo liner as well... problem is it's rolled right now and i am concerned if it will retain its form when laid down again.

Golden bronze ride ko hehe... I initially opted for the white but i expected it to be the most common color so i opted for the less common color... also there is a certain angle that when you see the white explorer, you'd mistake it for a fortuner for a split second (advantage: no bronze fortuner)... and i liked the pecan interior of the demo car before that is supposed to be only available with the bronze unit ... pero nong lumabas black din interior... ok rin naman pala black leather and it is easier to maintain

i agree with this, white din talaga first choice ko but after checking with a couple of ford casa's and finding out the line in the white one was about 3x longer than other colors i asked which has the shortest line. ayon ended up with bronze and i'm so glad that i got a bronze one since the color is very rare and i can't think of any other car that has the same shade.

Take the deformed part(s), roll and hold in position for 1 min. It would straighten out.

Nakaroon na kasi ako ng bronze sa outlander ko before which is parehas ang shade ng present explorer. Para maiba naman. Tucson ko rin ay bronze shade kaya white pinili ko. Kung dadami man ay di parin tulad ng fortuner at montero ang unit natin na ganun nalang kadami sa road. IMO...

Kung dumami man eh hindi kasing dami ng fortuner & montero. Explo is on a 2.4M league while the fortuner & montero is almost 1M less. One time on a trip from Sta Rosa Laguna to Baguio, i just start to count how many fortuners i'll see along the way. Holy cow, i almost lost track after 275 and that was just after Pozorubio Pangasinan. That's how popular the fortuner is and still i see more of the facelifted 2012 model coming out than an explo.

Meron ba pang ibang accessories binebenta ang Ford Alabang? Not a single Explo accessory is being sold by the Autohub Group (Global & Manila).

yun pa lang mud guard & gas cover with key. Meron din floor mat pero it's the same with the one that goes with the car.

*spynz... Definitely we are more exclusive than fortuner and montero.... and explorer is not even on the same class. Inggit nga ako sa white lalo na sa gabi, ganda talaga ng character, shape and shadow nya

Btw, i heard from my agent that a 2nd round of price increase is imminent for the explorer... Up to 2.5M... So we are a lucky few

*foresterx... glad you feel the same, also, the golden bronze color will be discontinued for the 2013MY models (replaced with a dark KODIAK BROWN), so that makes our color much more LIMITED hehe.
