Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was driving my 2003 ford explore and i started to here and noise from the rear end when i took off from a dead stop. i didn't worry about it right any,then it kept getting worse, so i took it in to the ford dealership where i bought it and they said the clutch was bad in the differential and it would be between 500 to 700 to fix. this explorer only has 49,000 miles on it. my wife drives this car and i know it has never been beat on. i still do not have my truck back yet it has been in the shop for about 4 days now. i am about up to 1200 dollars in repairs. i have read several complaints about this same thing on the internet. i juast can't understand why they don't have a recall. *jb
