It’s no secret that properly functioning brakes are an integral part of staying safe in your vehicle. Ford Explorer brake problems could lead to unsafe driving conditions – or worse, an accident. Pulsing in the brake pedal, increased stopping distance, brake noise, or an illuminated dashboard brake light should all be cause for concern. No matter what shape your Ford Explorer is in, it will likely need brake repair at some point – and that’s totally normal! Over time, parts of your brakes (like the brake pads) experience natural wear and tear and eventually need to be replaced. Driving habits and climate can also affect when you might need brake repair.

Much like brake problems, you don’t want to ignore issues with your tires. Tire damage can inhibit your ability to maintain control of your vehicle and stay safe while driving. Our technicians can change a flat tire on your 2001 Ford Explorer, or depending on the severity of the damage, perform a simple patch and plug repair on your Ford Explorer tire. Many tread-area punctures can be repaired if they are less than ¼ of an inch in diameter. If the type of tire damage won’t allow for a safe repair, your technician will work with you to find an affordable tire replacement. To ensure that tire damage doesn’t take a toll on other components of your vehicle, we may recommend an alignment or tire balancing service at the time of your tire repair.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care is also equipped to handle many 2001 Ford Explorer transmission, drivetrain, and engine repairs. Each of these systems is made up of hundreds of interconnected parts, each rubbing against another to create heat and energy. Over time, all those constantly moving components can get worn down. You might experience shifting delays, engine knocking, or a burnt smell coming from underneath the hood of your Explorer. Whatever the symptom, bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care. The repair might be a simple spark plug replacement, or a more involved fuel pump fix.

How Much Does Ford Explorer Repair Cost?
