The facelifted Explorer has finally arrived Philippine shores. I really admire the new look/specs but I'm still wondering if the past issue on exhaust fumes has been resolved. There is no mention of this issue when reading through the recent reviews by local experts. I still see a lot of new owners of this SUV here in the country. On the other hand, I believe that a class action suit has been filed in the US (covering 2011-2015 models) and is still pending.

Maybe some owners can share their 1st hand experience on the following:

1. Do they still smell exhaust fumes in the cabin when reaching a certain level of RPM?
2. Does this affect all units or just a few?

While I really admire this car, the issue is a clear deal breaker for me. Appreciate your inputs on this. Thanks in advance.
