This poor running Explorer was recently traded in at the Honda dealer. The check engine light is on and it has a skip. It will not pass NC inspection with the light on.You will need to tow it home. The miles you see are the actual miles on this vehicle. This Explorer will be sold to the high bidder with NO RESERVE!!!!!!!!This vehicle has a smooth shifting transmission. I only drove it 3 miles. The electrical and optional equipment on this vehicle has been checked to insure that it is all in working condition. The overall condition of this vehicle's exterior is average and has some blemishes and defects. This vehicle's interior appears to be in average condition for its age and mileage. The shocks that hold the hood up are weak. Although these tires are used, there is still plenty of tread wear left. Do not miss this one. The HIGH BIDDER will drive this Explorer home!!!!!!!! If you have any questions about this or any of my other auctions please feel free to call me at (704) 902 9258. Thank you for your interest and I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello, my name is Terry Maxwell the owner of terryscars. I personally have served the car buying public for over 30 years. Most of my career I managed a new car dealership. I am now semi-retired and sell most of my vehicles on eBay. I am licensed and bonded, bid with confidence. I own a small independent pre-owned car dealership. I am the only employee. I started buying and selling on eBay over 7 years ago. I have been an avid Harley rider for over 25 years and try to buy and sell them when ever I get a chance.
The majority of my vehicles come from new car dealer trades . My dealership is located in Troutman NC just minutes from Statesville NC. Take I 77 to exit 42 , turn left and go 0.4 mile. We are located on the left 820 S Main St Troutman NC 28166. Look for the US boat propeller sign, we share the parking lot.
All of the great feedback I have is for vehicles sold. (I have another account that buys and sells other items) The majority of my vehicles are sold with NO RESERVE !!!
GUARANTEE 100% SATISFACTION : I will refund all your money if vehicle is not as described or you are not pleased in any way when you arrive for delivery. If vehicle is shipped and not as described I will refund full purchase price (buyer pays for all shipping of vehicle, must call within 2 days of delivery and have been driving less than 100 miles).
I personally drive all vehicles and check them out before listing them on eBay. I drive motorcycles around my neighborhood and I drive all cars at least 20 miles to get the fluids warm. I then check all electrical items, A/C, brakes. etc. I park the vehicles and let them sit 45 minutes and check for any fluid leaks on the ground. If anything does not work properly I will let you know. Of course I am only human and these are mechanical creatures
All vehicles are on retail display . I may or may not have hand books, floor mats, and additional keys. I generally do, if not I can obtain them at a minimal cost. I try to give the most accurate description I can. Do not assume anything not listed is included. If you are not sure about something, please ASK.
A large number of the vehicles listed are recent trades that are being sold at great prices and will not be detailed or serviced by me. Please plan on servicing and detailing the vehicle when you get it home.
Pre Owned vehicles are sold AS-IS. Pre Owned vehicles are subject to certain wear and tear both cosmetically and mechanically.
Please review terms of sale for tax, tag and $299 Document Handling Fee information. This fee helps cover my expense in listing and selling vehicles as well as the paper work involved. This fee applies to all buyers including other dealers. A free 30 day temporary tag will also be provided.
Any questions please contact me. My cell phone is 704 902 9258.
Buyers are responsible for pickup or shipping. If you wish to use a transport service I will gladly cooperate. I offer free Airport pick up at Charlotte NC (CLT) for buyers flying in. Please make arrangements at least 48 hours in advance of your arrival and call before you finalize your flight.
Please call with the time and date you wish to pickup your vehicle. I am never in the office. I will meet you there by appointment. Normal pickup times are Mon-Thur 9-5 and Fri 9-3, but I will try to accommodate all buyers. Sorry closed every Saturday, Sunday and all Holidays. THANKS FOR LOOKING !!!!!!!!!!! and good luck bidding

Ford Motor is recalling nearly 1.3 million Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans built from the 2013 through 2018 model years because their front brake hoses may rupture and leak brake fluid, which could affect stopping ability and increase the risk of a crash. The company notified the National Highway and Transportation Safety Administration and says that in the event a leak occurs, the brake fluid warning light may illuminate on the instrument cluster behind the steering wheel. Dealers will replace the front brake hoses, free of charge, and notification letters to owners are to be mailed in mid-April. A second letter will be mailed once replacement parts are available. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 23S12. The vehicles affected were manufactured between Feb. 3, 2012, and July 19, 2017. In mid-2020, Ford recalled 488,594 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX SUVs for a similar problem regarding leaking brake lines. Â Recalls Ford Lincoln Safety
Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android
2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different. But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows: 2013 North American Car of the Year:
