Almost lost my life - 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
By i0love17 - November 12 - 2:00 amI got my explorer in the summer and it was great and really no problems. Well i was totally wrong. Everytime i hit a pothole or a little crack in the road i felt my tires slid from underneath me and it was so scary. The winter wasnt to bad. But in august of this year i was on my way to a bears game and it was dry and i hit a pothole and slid off the road rolled three times and plus 7 months pregnant. So i wasnt driving like a maniac. It felt the tires losing grip and it was the worst thing in the world and spent 9 days in the hospital and thank god my baby was ok but it was awful. I loved my truck but hate it, especially for that reason.

First SUV - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
By hondo - November 1 - 10:00 amThis Ford explorer sport is my first SUV and first 4wd vehicle. The sport puts the driver in a commanding driving position.The handling is nimble and turning radius is very tight for a vehicle of this size. Build quality seems excellent and I havent found any real flaws or defects so far. The 2dr sport was a perfect choice for me and my wife. Our son is grown and we havent yet had a rear seat passengers. The 4dr explorer is simply way more truck than we need or want. Its very smooth on the highway. Quiet and stable, very comfortable and effortless to drive. Mileage runs about 15 in city and 19 highway.

The seats and exterior are best points - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
By PEP - September 14 - 10:00 amWe drive the explorer back and forth from AZ to CA. Great comfortable front seats, usually gets just over 20 mpg. 4 doors are more convenient but I like the look and solid feel of the 2 door. I get lots of compliments on the metallic red color.

serious saftey concern with shock rod - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
By Pauli - July 27 - 10:00 amI just bought a brandnew ford exporer from WESTWAY ford late saturday night in IRVING TEXAS. When we brought the explorer home that late night and then that early morning when we prssed the liftgate blue button on the remote the liftgate glass went up automaticly. And then the shock rod seperated from the glass fell resulting in it falling hard.Luckily no physical injuries. Addresed these concerns to FORD. People could seriously get injured , especially children. Also noticed defects in the rear left window.

Lemon or new model year glitches? - 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
By TVSP - July 20 - 10:00 amIn the first six months of owning my Explorer Sport the following has been replaced for defects: the electronic control module (the brain), the fuel pump, the back window shield wiper, the outer door molding, the oxygen sensor for emissions, the interior "cruise control lights". This is my second Explorer Sport. My first one (a 1998 model) was the polar oppposite of this one...never a problem and it saved my life in a rollover crash at 70mph. While the reliability on my existing Explorer is questionable, the safety systems are impeccable. At least I have the peace of mind in knowing that this vehicle can and will save my life. And lets face it, that is worth a lot!

Pleased W/ this one ! - 2003 Ford Explorer Sport
By Pleased! - May 14 - 10:00 amI have owned 16 different cars since I turned 16 years old. I am now 35. I can honestly say that I am enjoying this one more than any other! Why? Because it is exactly what it claims to be. A tough 4x4 truck w/ a rear hatch instead of a bed. It has plenty of power, great looks, commanding driver position, solid fit and finish and last but not least the stiff, taught ride a 4x4 should have! You get the feeling you are sacrificing the smooth cushy ride knowing you could go anywhere you want to in this capable Ford. If you want an easy riding sedan then go buy one. This one is for the rest of us! Great value and plenty of performance.

Kickin - 2001 Ford Explorer Sport
By Don Durfey - April 25 - 1:56 pmI love my new SUV. I purchased a 2001 Explorer Sport used with 20,000 miles on it off of a lease. It is a major improvement from my Jetta. Its got tons of power, plenty of room, and still small enough I can park it anywhere I could park my Jetta. Its got plenty of cargo space, very easy to work on, and excellent new body lines. Ive had it offroad a few times and never had a problem. I never thought Id own a FORD, but now I realized that Ive been missing out.

Fun SUV - 2002 Ford Explorer Sport
By NPFlorida - April 25 - 10:00 amI leased a 2001 Sport Explorer. I really enjoy this truck. It has just enough power for those who are not race frenzy. Gas mileage is phenominal for an SUV.(17 gal tank - 300 miles) Comfortable seating (love the leather quality) Radio is pretty good. In 2 years (June 2002) I have never had a problem yet! Love it.
