Adaptive Cruise Control problems of the 2022 Ford Explorer

Ongoing issues with the screen displaying upside down, blurry, red/green lines, powering on and completely off. Rearview calibration issue off centered (dealership fixed). This also impacts the cruise control alerts, lane keeping assist, etc. And occasionally powers vehicle off. Dealership was able to fix delayed reverse transmission via software for the pcm. Multiple dealership repair attempts have not fixed this ongoing issue from 2022-2025. Videos available via email request. Dealership verified some of the concerns and Ford would only authorize software updates, new battery, some camera components. When this failed to fix they were not authorized to further repair. As a courtesy the dealership rebuilt the software and this did not fix the issues.

On [xxx] my 2022 Ford Explorer was involved in a collision during my morning commute to work. On [xxx] while stopped at a stoplight across from sheetz, with the auto brake hold engaged for a minute or two already, my vehicle accelerated forward into the vehicle in front of me. The impact was so sudden that the driver of the vehicle I collided with thought I had been rear ended. While I had contacted my insurance company (erie insurance) regarding the collision, I had also reached out to my service center, laurel Ford (windber, PA), concerning the incident. Because of my concerns with the auto brake hold and copilot system with the collision, they had me bring it in on 16 September to run diagnostics. Later that day on the 16th, I had received a phone call from the service tech letting me know that he did find system error logs approx. 40 minutes prior to the collision. He let me know that he was going to keep diagnosing and will be most likely reaching out to his next level service support. The next day on the 17th, the service technician called me back to let me know that when he reported the issue to his support center he was advised to park the vehicle, not let it be driven, and for the service manager to get with me to file a report (Ford reference # xxx). Since that time, nothing more has happened with my Explorer. I have both the current manufacturer's warranty and Ford protect warranty. The most recent update from laurel Ford was that Ford corporate said a field service engineer needed to evaluate the issue. The laurel Ford service center is no longer getting replies from corporate and has a regional manager involved, with no luck so far. It has been an extreme burden and has been beyond stressful using my wife's car for work, l'm in the military and my base is over 40 miles away, while she relies on friends/family to get to her work and also make sure that both of my kids get to their activities.

When using my cruise control the speed jumps up to 75-85 mph without my input. For example, when I set the cruise control to 55 it suddenly jumps up to 75 or 85 mph on its own. This happens when the speed signs on the road change. This past week I used my cruise control for a long trip. I was on a highway that changed the posted speed from 55 to 65 mph. The cruise control suddenly went from the posted speed of 55 mph to 85 mph. This is very concerning! it has happened several times and I can no longer use the cruise controller. I have approximately 5,000 miles on my vehicle .
