This issue has been resolved but i wanted to post it for the benefit of other members because it threw me for a loop. 2014 Explorer sport started to overheat in traffic, roughly 75k miles. Mods where a intake, tune and thermostat. Got the car home, fans where working, coolant was a little down from expansion tank. Let it cool off overnight, next day let it idle, fans kicked on, no codes, upper radiator hose got to a similar temp as lower hose, coolant dropped from normal level in the expansion tank so i thought it wasnt a thermostat, oil checked out as well.
I had to leave the following day for vacation so i dropped it off at the dealer, they called later, said it was fans. Picked it up a week later with new fans but that didnt fix it and it was still overheating, so i took it back. They called again and said it was the thermostat and that it was bent and barely opening. Hopefully this helps someone else troubleshoot there overheating issues.
