Notes from the dealer
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto make it easy to bring your apps, maps and music along without plugging in, so the cabin stays cleaner and everyday driving feels simpler.
Hands-on steering assist with lane centering helps take the edge off long highway stretches by giving subtle guidance that keeps the Explorer more centered in its lane while you stay engaged.
Front pedestrian impact prevention adds an extra layer of awareness by monitoring the road ahead and helping respond when pedestrians may be in harmâs way.
A built-in mobile hotspot helps keep passengers connected on the go, making it easier to stream, work or browse without relying solely on personal data plans.
The rear camera with washer helps provide a clearer view behind the vehicle, giving you added confidence when backing into tight spaces or dealing with messy weather.
Lane departure prevention works in the background to help correct unintended drifting, offering a reassuring safeguard on busy commutes and long drives.
Rear collision mitigation helps prepare the vehicle for a possible impact from behind, adding peace of mind in traffic and stop-and-go driving situations.
Adaptive cruise control with traffic stop-go helps manage changing traffic flow by automatically adjusting speed and handling full stops, which can make highway travel less stressful.
Brake assist adds extra stopping support during hard braking, helping deliver more immediate response when you need to slow down quickly.
Cruise control with steering wheel mounted controls makes it easy to set and adjust your pace, helping reduce fatigue and keeping longer drives more comfortable.

So far so good - smooth ride - plenty of power for a 2.3 liter 4 cyl which coming from someone who drove a 5.0 V8 for 20 yrs- much better on gas - 4.0
Served our family well!

Trading my car in next week, I am gonna miss my Explorer. It’s been a good family car. Draw backs: the screen is glitchy at times. Some electronics malfunctioned and I won’t lie, they can be costly to fix. Comfortable, spacious. I never had any mechanical problems with the car, but I did take very good care of it at well. I maintained all recommended services and any replacements were all genuine Ford parts. I hope whoever buys our car, loves it as much as we did. - 5.0

Hello everyone! I had this car for about 3 months and I absolutely love it! I love how reliable it is and how quick it can get when it’s needed. The 3rd row is tight, it is a mid-size SUV after all. If you have a bigger family, I would suggest getting a full size SUV. Unfortunately, there are a few issues that I’ve noticed. 1. Sometimes, the car stalls/jerks a little bit when accelerating. It doesn’t happen much. 2. On the infotainment screen, I can’t download or update any apps. It says pending and it keeps spinning over and over again. (it is a computer after all) I have an appointment soon to get these issues fixed but other than that, it’s been amazing. I am so very grateful for this car. It is my first real car I’ve ever had and I’m so lucky to have a choice for once for something I actually want.
