akirby Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 they, instead should shutdown the whole Oakville Assembly Plant itself! All cars built there has minimum QA and almost all of them have issues from bad paint to rattle plastics etc Ours doesn't. They build 20K+ vehicles every month and only a small subset seem to be having problems. It may be a higher percentage with issues than normal, but it's still probably a small number overall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleigha Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 Super excited!!! Ford Service on FaceBook gave me my VIN and build/eta date! Ordered 5/7/2016 Build 7/14/2016 ETA 8/3/2016 Was finally able to download my window sticker today. I feel like this process has taken forever, but I guess in all actuality, it is not that bad of a wait to get exactly what I want. Kinda wish I knew about them switching Too Good To Be Blue to Blue Jeans for 2017 though...oh well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTDaniel Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 We have had our Titanium for a month now....I find the quality to be great...We have not found any flaws to date...It compares to the 2011 Explorer Limited in ride and Quality...Went with the 3.5 and averaging over 25mpg...I think Oakville is doing a great job....It was well worth the 9 wk wait .

enigma-2 Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Great gas milage, it's rated at 25 highway, unusual to actually get EPA. Do you miss the room of the Explorer or do you find the Edge sufficient? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kobe Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 14 weeks from order to delivery on 6/29/16, apparently fleet sales are at the bottom of the build list. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NITEHAWK1224 Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Congrats man ! Whats the 3M protection ? a clear plastic film that is not visible from a distance and is put on the front of the hood, headlights, front fascia, mirror backs, and optionally on the rocker panels,it helps protect your vehicle from rocks chipping the paint, The Province of Alberta does not use sand in the winter on icy roads, they tend to use pea gravel which plays havoc with the front of your vehicle and not to mention the front windshield. Insurance companies love it here, they put your rates up after two claims... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0lkman Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 how much costs this 3pm protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NITEHAWK1224 Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 I was originally quoted about $250 for just the front end and mirrors, however with the Ford Employee discount program and a Costco Card I had about 6K knocked off the price and also 4k for my trade in. Went for the "full meal deal" on the 3M protection, which includes the carpet and seat protetction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0lkman Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 hmm interesting, how they do film protection for carpets? and seats? post some pics once you get the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 I would think carpet & seats would be treated with a spray-type product (Scotchgard for instance), but am curious to see if there is indeed a "film" being used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akirby Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 There are 2 types of fabric protection - water based (scotchguard) and silicon based professional formulas. Water based lasts about 6 months - silicon lasts 3 years. Back in college we had a 5 gallon drum of the silicon stuff that came with a 3 yr warranty. I used to spray paper towels and they would hold several ounces of liquid without leaking for a few minutes. I don't know if you can get silicon retail. Just make sure to reapply the scotchguard every 6 months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
