Inkrypshun Posted July 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 (edited) Good call on the co2 alarm. The vehicle didn't make it to the dealer without another issue. Just got the adaptive steering fault. Edited July 30, 2017 by Inkrypshun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWizard Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Ford is claiming that the Explorer CO issue applies only to police vehicles and they're willing to work with police departments but expect that the problem has been caused by the departments installing additional equipment after purchase. That doesn't match with what I've been seeing elsewhere but that's Ford's PR people at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inkrypshun Posted July 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 I remember smelling exhaust in my 2002 Explorer but never thought much of it. Seems to be a recurring issue that goes back a decade or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't mean that civilian Explorers don't also have exhaust leaks - clearly they do. But this appears to be a different problem that occurs mostly at idle.
