Five problems related to engine stall have been reported for the 1999 Ford Explorer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Ongoing engine stalling problem while driving/ slowing down, and accelerating from a stop position. Dealer contacted. Feel free to provide any further information.
Dealer refused to repair vehicle after defective remaufactured engine installed.
Engine cuts off while vehicle is in motion. When this happens, I lose brakes and steering. I have had the vehicle in for repair more than 3 times but the engine continues to stall out. Dealership indicates Ford is aware of the problem but is not able to presently repair. Vehicle is dangerous when engine quits while in motion. Vehicle is not providing reliable transportation. Also, there is an engine rattle which is worstening but dealership said this is "normal. " I am interested in determining if there have been other similar complaints and if so, how many and what has Ford done about this.
While traveling and without any indication engine stalled. Dealer has been contacted. Please provide further information.
Usually during hot days, vehicle will start and after few seconds the engine dies or stalls. This happened twice already. Dealer can't figure it out.
