Brake repair is one of the most important repairs you can invest in for one very simple reason: you rely on your brakes to safely bring your vehicle to a stop. Ford Explorer brake problems can put you at risk on the road. Don’t wait to have your brakes inspected if you notice any of the following: brake noises, a shuddering sensation when you hit the brakes, an illuminated brake light on your dashboard, or increased stopping distance. Even the most well-maintained cars will need brake repair at some point, including your Ford Explorer. Over time, parts of your brakes (like the brake pads) experience natural wear and tear and eventually need to be replaced. Your car’s brake repair timeline can also be affected by your driving habits, as well as the climate in your area.

Much like brake problems, you don’t want to ignore issues with your tires. Safe vehicle operation is practically impossible without four well-maintained and reliable tires. We can easily swap out a flat tire on your 2018 Ford Explorer, or if the damage isn’t severe, repair a Ford Explorer tire with the appropriate plug and patch. Tread-area punctures less than ¼ inch in diameter can often be repaired. If your tire can't be safely repaired, a tire technician can help you find a tire replacement that will keep your car (and your wallet!) happy. 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 nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care is a one-stop shop for 2018 Ford Explorer drivetrain, engine, and transmission repair services, too. All of these systems contain hundreds of parts that work together to generate heat and energy to propel your car to move. Over time, all those constantly moving components can get worn down. If this happens, you may hear engine knocking noises, feel a delay in transmission shifting, or even smell a burning odor from under your Explorer’s hood. When something feels off with your vehicle, head to Firestone Complete Auto Care. In these cases, the repair could range from something minor, like a new spark plug, to a more significant repair, like a fuel pump fix.

How Much Does Ford Explorer Repair Cost?

A few different aspects can influence repair costs for your 2018 Ford Explorer, like which repairs are needed, costs of replacement parts or repair supplies, the amount of labor necessary to get the job done, and the state you live in. Taxes and labor costs vary greatly from one state to the next. No matter what state you’re in, be sure to look through our offers and online coupons for repairs.

2018 Ford Explorer Auto Repair Q&A

You want to take care of your car, but Ford Explorer repair costs can add up if you’re not careful. Here are the answers to a few common auto repair questions, plus info to help you avoid big repairs from the very beginning.

  • Can scheduled maintenance help me avoid repairs? One of the best ways to prevent 2018 Ford Explorer repairs is by staying on top of your Ford maintenance schedule. This schedule is written by the people who made your vehicle and they know best how to keep it running smoothly.
  • Should I bring my Ford in even if I can't pinpoint the problem? No, we’re not talking about finding the best jams on the radio! You know your car best, and you’re the first person who will notice if something doesn’t feel right (like new smells, sights, or sounds coming from your car). If you sense that something is 'off,' stop in for a Courtesy Check to have these symptoms checked out ASAP. Early action could help you prevent Ford Explorer repairs.
  • Do I have to get the repairs you recommend for my Ford? Talk to your technician. We'll never recommend a service or repair for your 2018 Ford Explorer that we don't think is necessary for your safety.
