Ford Everest [Merged]

[dekzee]

guys may napansin lang ako. may natitigan akong dalawang everest kahapon while stuck in traffik. napansin ko yung license plates sa likod that's covering a portion of the keyhole? bare license plates ito ha, walang mga fancy covers/protectors. mukhang minor design flaw? I'm sure wala naman itong functional consequence.

I agree with you sir. Lalong matatakpan if you put plate cover on it. halos 1/4 ng keyhole matatakpan. design flaws ng ford. not sure if it is already change sa bagong model.

Questions lang mga sir:

After 2 years having to drive my mother in law's everest. Recently, may squeeking sound sa front suspension. do you experience the same po? Ano po diagnose sa inyo? parang bushing yata. Pero so far, ok naman performance nya. Great torque and good fuel economy na din for it's size.

Yup, normal yan, from gen 1 to gen 3.. Pero hindi naman na kelangan yun since may keyless entry na ang everest..

And re: squeeking sound normal na yan bro, ganyan din sa 2007 3.0L 4x4 Eve ko.. Para siya mga old Isuzu pickups(before fuego days).. Pwede mo i-try ipa-greasing sa mga shops who specialized on wheels and tires, alignments, balancing..

[techillajoe]

Until now, the eve is still in Ford Alabang, acc to the service adv, there is just one pc that wont fit, so they ordered it from the US again..
My sister just loves the Everest. She is planning to have her 07 4x2 a/t traded with the latest everest model.
Anybody who knows someone who can give her the best xdeal in town?

Na-experience ko din yan kaso 2007 Ford Ranger 3.0 yung gamit ko.
Sa Servitek, pwede ba dun po ipa-greasing? Thanks

*santosestrella:

we are planning to buy a new Ford Everest, ask ko lang po kung hindi ba mahirap ang maintenance, ang sabi nila kasi pag American made, mahirap um-order ng parts. pa-advise rin po kung saang Ford maganda bumili, ung less headache.

thank you.

Boss Hindi po American made ang everest, sa Santa Rosa laguna yan assembled tapos made in Thailand. Yung brand Lang ang American. Kahit dito sa Canada walang ford everest they won't a diesel SUV on that size.

What about Ford Global City? I'm thinking of getting the new Everest 3.0 (the 3.2 Montero SE is the other option), but this issue on after-sales service by Ford dealers is turning me off. I just want to know if I will not be committing a "costly" mistake if ever I choose the Everest over Montero.

And also, I got to test drive the 4x2 variants of both Everest and Montero, and Montero has greater acceleration than the heavier-built Everest.

Hi sirs!

Considering buying Ford. Ok po ba ang Escape or Everest? Is it better than an AUV (I have a Crosswind XT 2003 and planning to sell it.)?

[santosestrella]

The vehicle is of no question, a perfect vehicle here in our country. I owned a EVEREST 2.5 2008 AT and I am happy with the performance and reliability

[SIZE="4"]The issue of after sales service will always hunt all Everest owners and probably all Ford vehicles due to lack of sensitivity of FORD DEALERS. [/SIZE]

I noticed it compared to other dealers such as Hyundai. In Hyundai, it is the priority of executives to make the car owners feel proud of their vehicle because of overwhelming customer support.

In the end, you will have to compromise: aesthetics, performance, economy, after sales service, resale value.

I suggest you rank which is most important to least priority

DISCLAIMER:
I am not an owner of a Hyundai nor have I any vested interest

Here are the

Thanks for the input sir.Actually this is helpful because just yesterday, my brother's firm gave him a 2004 Ford Everest.

[techillajoe]

Hello,

My sister just got her Eve yesterday, just in time, the last day of the car's LTO registration.
I just hope that Ford's management makes a drastic change in their customer service, if they want to enhance their market-share in the Asian brand dominated industry here.
I think she's still keen on getting it traded with the newest Everest, I like the Everest too.

Hello Guys,

This would be my first post but I was reading here for so long na about 2 years or so. I just registered the other day because I am now planning to get SUV.

Ok here it goes, I know that the ranger and Everest have the same platform in terms of chassis please correct me if I am wrong. I am working here in the middle East in one of US Bases and we have Ranger, Hilux and Strada, which we drove everyday and I could say driving hard and subject to abused! With the road condition here 60% sand, desert, bato bato. With all clocks more than 50K km the Ranger has the best acceleration next was the Strada lastly the hilux, by the way our ranger is 2.9L and both Strada and Hilux were 2.5L given maybe because of displacement, BUT our ranger BALL JOINT (if I am correct again) were already changed twice. Pag todo liko lumalagatok sya both left and right and may kabig na, the mechanic said the problem sa rubber lang daw don't know exactly. Pero common na common daw eto sa Ranger. Pero sa Strada and Hilux we never experience this. Sa bagong Ranger or Everest may problem pa bang ganto? By the way all truck are 4X4 and M/T, ranger is 2005 model and Strada/ Hilux 2007. Sa AC hand down the best ang ranger namin. both Strada and Hilux already gone for AC repairs worse was the Strada.

Cheers all. Be safe always!

Hi there mga ka-ford...tanong lang po, kung magpapalit ako ng OIL saan ba pwede at mai-rekumenda nyo po na shop? Ayaw ko na po sana dalhin sa CASA sa FORD.

Tanong ko lang din kung ano gamit na Oil at ano pa ang papalitan sa 65000 kilometers na at 4 years na po ang FORD EVEREST ko. Ito po ay diesel.

Kung may mga dagdag po kayo, pwede ko po malaman din. Salamat at dito ko din dati itinanong ang FORD everest bago ko ito bilhin..hindi naman po ako nagsisisi..

salamat po!

sa ford everest ko din po naririnig ko po yan kapag liliko o itotodo ko ng maneobra, lalo na kapag medyo lulubak, ito ay maririnig ko ang lagatok sa harapan bahagi ng gulong. Ano kaya problema nito?? sino po kaya makakatulong sa amin?..salamat po

Bro, palitan mo yung steering stop. It's a plastic thingy that covers a screw which limits steering. Pinapalitan yan sa casa every 5k kms.

BTW, maganda ang casa service ng Ford dito sa amin sa San Pablo City, Laguna (a Ford Alabang branch).

[SIZE="4"]Good for you.

I still dream of seeing a Casa with good service here in Manila.[/SIZE]

After months of research, We have finally decided to get the 2010 Ford Everest 2.5 a/t winning blue. We have narrowed our choices to
a. Montero sports
b. Toyota Innova SR
c. Ford Everest.
These are great vehicles with good reviews and positive owners feedback. What made me decide to chose Ford Everest are
1. It's durable that can last for years of usage.
2. It's powerful (2.5 duratorq engine)
3. It's economical (can attain 14 km/l as mentioned in some reviews)
4. It has its own beauty in terms of design (Beauty depends on the eyes of the beholder as we say)
5. It's built tough (Feel much more safer for my family)
6. Everest has a good resale value
7. Lastly, I have tested my brother's same model Everest when my family and I went long distance. Its really very nice. Driving it for 1 day finally closed my mind in owning this 2010 Ford Everest a/t.
