2012 New Ford Explorer

[apple5]

It's up to Ford Phils.
Kung ako lang masusunod gusto ko manual na lang ang 3rd row folding seats, manual na rin ang lift gate,
basic na lang ang radio/ACU/entertainment panel hndi na MFT, hindi na rin heated/cooled ang front seats.
less matic less problem

Apple5, keep us posted. yan ang pinaka-ayokong mangyari sa kin. Di kakayanin ng paracetamol yang sakit sa ulo.
Tapos maririnig mo sa SA hindi alam ang causes, sir wala pa po kaming parts na dumarating, etc. . . mas me alam pa tayo
tungkol sa mga problems ng explorer kesa sa mga nasa casa.

yun left side portion ng lift na nakakabit between door and body,binalik ng technician from casa kaya lang ilan beses sibubukan talagang natatagal, nahuhugod, they just fix it with a steel wire niretoke muna para pwedi muna gamitin, then wait for planta on monday to raise the issue,the call me back kung ano ang gagawin.

sobra talaga problema yun unit ko di pang nga naayos yun rattle sound form dashboard and compartment eto nanaman lift gate, 14days old lang unit ko, demand ko sa kanina mapalitan yun unit ko, baka ano pa magiging sira. bad trip talaga!! wait almost 3 month the with all demand from dealear then ganun yun makukuha mo unit,sh*#*$#

isa pa pala napansin ko paguwi yun reverse camera before di mo makikita sa screen yun lower body ng explorer, ngayon may makikita akong portion of my unit dun sa screen,di ko sure gawa ba nung problema sa lift gate na di na-align, or talagang ganun, sa inyo ganun din ba?

*apple5: yung unit ko, nakikita ko yung portion ng bumper pag umaatras para makita yung distance ng bumper from the wall. does this help? i believe pinsan mo ba si focus_ph? nakuha na ba niya yung unit niya?

good day mga owners, just an avid fan of Ford Explorer I don't own one, been checking the explorer since 2010 when it got first introduced sa states tapos nanalo sya truck of the year 2011 North America beating dodge durango and jeep cherokee...sa nabasa ko kay apple5, mahirap nga yung unit na napunta sa iyo na problematic...best mapalitan na lang...pressure mo sila...medyo nabago tuloy impression ko sa explorer...They should already encountered these kind of problem, kasi nga sa states almost a year na sila dun meron explorer. Im here in Guam, yung Ford Explorer medyo hindi pumatok dito...siguro mga 15 explorers lang yata kita ko sa road..wala limited dito, only XLT and Base Model...yung isang tsikoteer na may gusto nya yung less matic like third row seat etc..its the XLT, kung wala MFT, ay yung Base model...kaso limited lang sa pinas...

Mga sirs, ask ko lang...regarding sa cap less fuel system nya...just press the fuel cover di ba access mo na sya? or lock yung car mo, lock din sya? kasi if somebody mag trip sa ride, kasi good looking explorer, ma access kaya nila..they might put something sa tank like water or other liquids when its park in public place? Napansin ko lang din, yung sa ilalim na plastic sa harap ng front wheels, medyo mababa compare sa monty or fort...kaya medyo ingat sa parking hindi dapat isagad baka tumama sa concrete stopper...I think sadya yun para sa aerodynamics nya...Yung third row yata, pwede manual fold, if you dont like always using the buttons.

Over all maganda ang explorer, it's a modern car with new innovations...sana dumating din agad yung 2.0 Ecoboost engine version wala nga lang AWD...but most owners di naman nag off road sa explorers nila...thanks guys for sharing your experience...

*BOUNTY: I think the fuel cover can be opened any time but what the SA told me was the fuel cap can only fit or will only open to nozzles of unleaded gas. Apparently iba ang nozzle ng diesel? As for the chinskirt (bka yan dn tawag dyan hehe), its plastic so be extra careful. Noong una akala ko rubber. I wonder if there's a way to remove it.

Thanks Bro for the info akala ko tuloy may defect na naman, yun pinsan wala pa rin yun unit niya, this jan daw,ford global din kaya lang may advice na price increase,

[apple5]

*bounty *3ple4 yun fuel cap can only fit the gasoline nozzle or funnel provided by ford in case of emergency pwede mag manual filling.

*3ple4, yeah i think yung chinkskirt correct terminology nun *apple5, thanks sa info bros...

May I know which color and kung kelan nagpareserve?

May I know which color and kung kelan nagpareserve?

I know he booked last week of December. He got the sterling gray. Wala ata masyadong pila sa kulay na yan Sabi niya he didn't give extra to the SA and he paid in cash. I guess he was just lucky.

To owners of Explorer, do you guys use the power liftgate or do you set it to manual? Problema kasi ay kung papunta tayo sa mall or hotel kasi binubuksan for security inspection. Pag naka-power liftgate, mabubuksan yan ng todo pero di ba mga ibang guwardya pag binubuksan nila ay di naman todo, sumisilip lang. Pwede yun pag i-set sa manual kaso nag-aalangan ako pag manual, takot ako baka masira yung parang hydraulic thingy kasi di mo masabi sa pwersa ng nagsasara.

Ford Edsa has lean que specially on off colors like gray & brown. Solo dealership sila kaya sarili lang nila ang delivery,
while others share with their other branch dealership. Pero, they also have their own scam such as, mandatory sa kanila ka kukuha ng insurance at their own ridiculous price. Now, if the buyer is willing to swallow that, high chance he can get unit next month but on cash basis as new shipments will be arriving this month end.

3ple4, macsd thanks for the info. I hope to get my Black X this month or the next.

Libre ba from Ford yung funnel? D ako nabigyan. Pero may kasamang cargo net hehe

5 weeks na ang nakakalipas at wala pa ring plaka. Siguro minimum 2 months waiting period.

guys, sanay na ba kayo sa side view mirror?

[3ple4]

Yeah, the left side mirror is such a pain to use since I'm not used to magnification of the lens. That's why I look at the upper left portion of the mirror because the magnification is the normal as with other cars. Gusto ko na nga palitan pero wala pang replacement ang Ford.

Another question regarding the MFT... it's fun that you can play music from your phone via bluetooth and have them played in the Explorer's radio. But I noticed that I can't transfer pictures via bluetooth, am I correct? Dapat yata via sd card or usb.

[109]

model 2013 na ang tawag sa build date after jan30.
bronze color will be discontinued.
headlamps will be HID.
new look na din ang MFT ?
kelan kaya dadating units dito na jan30 ang build date?

hope to get mine by february (2012 model)

[Titleist983k]

Saw this one along Aguinaldo highway earlier..... Nice color

[apple5]

Hi Guys kumusta yun wiper ng explorer nyo? yun sa akin parang may sound naririnig pagnag wipe, is it normal? parang medyo malakas compare sa ibang car ko, di ba pag bago dapat medyo smooth? walang gaanong ingay? thanks
