The contact owns a 2011 Ford Explorer. While driving at an unknown speed, the air conditioning unit failed on the passenger side.

The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was advised to contact NHTSA. The approximate failure mileage was 29,416.
I have a 2011 Ford Explorer and the sun visors do not allow me to make small adjustments to block the sun. When the visor is fully opened I cannot make 1/4 or 1/2 inch adjustments. I almost have to bring the visor half way down before it holds in place. Then it blocks my view of traffic. I've notified champion Ford katy and they didn't know what to do. I can make small adjustments when the visor is facing me. This leads me to believe that it is manufactured or installed backwards.
