Two problems related to horn assembly have been reported for the 2019 Ford Explorer. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2019 Ford Explorer based on all problems reported for the 2019 Explorer.
1. The vehicle horn unknowingly and unexpectedly stopped working, became unavailable, and subsequently failed to alert other of hazardous conditions, when approperiately initiated by the driver/operator. Without any indication or prior warning to the driver that the horn was not functional. This vehicle can be made available for NHTSA inspection upon request. For all intensive purposes, the only unique purpose for having a vehicle horn is for safety. 2. Safety was compromised and reslted in highly eleveted risks for the driver, passangers, pedestrians, traffic officers, by standers, other vehicles and congestion, following a night time egress of an nfl football game. 3. The problem is repeatable and the horn is currently in a failed state. The horn has not been diagnosed or repaired. It has not been confirmed, by the dealer, nor independent service center. Why? for them to bill me some ungodly amount, just to tell me, my the horn does not work. . On a vehicle I financed/purchased 4 months ago? and that I paid $200 last month for a failed battery last month. Good lord, and on a vehicle with more automated driver assist sensors, than a martian land Explorer? and the horn fails? for safety, horns are intentionally "enabled" and maintained in fuctional state. Note: auto owner has reported this safety defect to NHTSA. Owner requests all costs of diagnosis, parts, replacement, labor, repairs, wiring, computer, software, and the transparent identification of flaws in automatic updates via internet and wireless, connectivity, software updates, digital processing of vehicle operating systems, and digital monitoring of driving conditions, location, and environment. 4. No. It has not been inspected by manufacturer, police, insurance reps, or others. Yet. 5. No warning lights, messages, or indicators prior to non-functioning and unexpected horn failure. I would like to request independent NHTSA inspection root cause analysis. Thank you.
