He invited Bloomberg News along for a ride. There was very little sign of carbon monoxide during a 120-km test drive near Henriksen’s home in South Lyon, Michigan, in January. One of two detectors in his vehicle registered only tiny amounts of the gas. The other showed zero.

“That’s the problem—it’s so sporadic,” he said. Ford twice sent engineers to examine his Explorer, Henriksen said, and they found no problem.

This indicates it’s psychosomatic or due to something else, if real.

Ford saying they “fixed it” indicated they found a problem.

None of this is coherent.

Bottom line, Fords are garbage even without any CO problem.

My last two leases (2013 and 2016) were a Ford Focus........Loved them......Very disappointed that they discontinued them.

I have two. A 2002 F-250/w 326000 and 2011 F-150/w 170000. I had to put a clutch in the "02" at 275,000 but other than routine maintenance that's it.
I bought a Government Motors vehicle but don't know what make it is since I never saw it. I wouldn't buy a GM and won't have one in my driveway. Park 'em on the street so the neighbors won't think I'm "going commie".

If the recirculated air mode is putting the cabin under negative pressure, that is a problem. There is no way to effectively seal that huge (hugh?) back tailgate. Exhaust contaminated air will be, inevitably, sucked past the seal, which can lead to serious (series?) problems?

It could be sporadic and real.
