There's a lot of variation between hybrid vehicles. Some are called "hybrids" because they use battery power to propel or help propel the vehicle, some hybrids may or may not plug-in to charge, and some may or may not have regenerative braking. Some hybrid models have both a high-voltage battery and a conventional 12-volt battery. With so many differences in hybrid vehicle systems, it's important that you visit someone who knows your 2021 Ford Explorer from bumper to bumper. We'll help your hybrid run newer, longer. Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to provide conventional and low voltage services for all hybrid makes and models, including your 2021 Ford Explorer.
Certain stores also provide high voltage services. A high voltage service is any service that includes removing the Ford's high voltage safety/service disconnect plug/switch, servicing any high voltage cables, the power inverter, the electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, etc. Call ahead before making an appointment to ensure your closest location offers high voltage services.

Hybrid high voltage battery cooling system inspections: Your technician will closely examine your Ford Explorer's battery filter (if applicable), and then clean its ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)
High voltage cable inspection: Your technician will look closely at the outside connectors and cable jackets on your 2021 Ford Explorer and check to make sure no high voltage energy is transferring to the chassis. They'll let you know if the cable is damaged and needs replacement.
Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.
Remove and replace hybrid electric battery: Is your Ford Explorer's high voltage battery a goner? Let us replace it for you.
