expedition exhaust fumes in cabin

Written by: cud1105 on Jun 26, 2008 02:18 PM

I recently got a 2008 Expedition Eddie Bauer 4+4, and immediately started smelling what seemed to be exhaust fumes in the passenger cabin.

You're very welcome, Anthony. Wow, $1,000 per month is way too much money to pay to lease any Ford product. Heck, you can lease a BMW 7-Series for less than that.

Regardless of how ... Read More...
