    1) windshield noise

    3) Power steering loss
    4) Overheating

    These issues happened quite early, some with just 5k miles! I just hope the units they bring here in the Philippines will have these issues corrected.
    damn that's a huge turn off for me if explorer owners experience this here. i just hope the philippine units won't have these problems until it's time for me to buy a car by next year.

    Sounds worrying. But there's a TSB (technical service bulletin) about the cooling fan already, so the local units should have the upgraded units.

    Just like with the Camaro. First batch ones in the US, and there was a laundry-list on the Camaro forums as long as my arm about problems (transmission dies, limp mode, rattles, shakes, brake retaining clips (which locks the brakes and stalls the car), blah, blah, blah), but after the first batch, things got better.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Since the locally sold Explorer come from the US, I am concerned with the issues discussed in this forum-http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=152. Is there any assurance from Ford Philippines that these problems have already been rectified? This is the only thing holding me back from buying the new Ford Explorer. Sayang din yung free comprehensive insurance ng BPI!

    The Explorer has been in production for 10 months, and 100,000 have already been sold in the US this year.
    They've probably sorted things out by now.

    The bugs (lag or possibility of freezing) of MyFord Touch seems to be software related.
    These kinds of problems are usually fixed with a software upgrade.

    Sir! I just want to ask kung parehong pareho ang specs ng Ford Explorer sa U.S. at yung nilabas sa Philippines...

    May Collision warning with brake support din? Blind Spot Information System? Adaptive cruise control? Thanks in advance Sir!

    Anu kaya ang difference?

    Yes, may pila pa rin irregardless of which dealership. So far, Ford Global as they offer 20K gas coupon once you reserve 50K without backing out.
