This early maintenance helps prevent minor issues from becoming bigger problems and sets the foundation for a long-lasting, trouble-free driving experience.

As your Ford Explorer hits 15,000 miles, it's time to step up your maintenance routine.

It's also a good idea to replace the air filters to ensure the engine receives clean air for better fuel efficiency and performance. This maintenance helps keep your Explorer in top shape, preventing minor issues from becoming costly repairs later on.
