What owners wrote
Even though I have put the car in park, it still moves and has hit me and some of the passengers getting out the car with the doors and other parts of the vehicle almost running us over. The vehicle was put in park according to dial. However, it still moved.
Our 208 ford expedition platinum 4x4 puts out a very high amount of carbon monoxide, to the point that it makes my children sick. After very little research, it appears as though our vehicle is having the same issue thousands of people had with their ford explorers.
