Transmission started to shudder when shifting, had dealer power flush and fill transmission and reprogram pcm this fixed problem for 3 days, then problem returned. Have now been told that transmission needs to be replaced. Transmission can go out anytime so repairs have to be done at a cost of $3600.00 at dealer.

While driving the vehicle stalled without warning.the dealership replaced thetransmission/main computer, now the cruise control is inoperative. *nlm

I have a 2002 ford explorer and have had to replace wheel bearings and have seen where many others on the internet as well as people i have talked to with the exact same model suv have had to replace their bearings as well. To me it seems if everyone has had to replace these bearing that there would be a recall.ford motor company should be forced to replace these parts. It is not only a expensive part it is also a safety risk. I among others do not have the money to replace all those parts. My wife drives this truck everyday and i feel that it is a risk to drive it.

When the brakes were depressed the vehicle continued to accelerate.*nlm
