Why Are Oil Changes Important?

Regular oil changes are one of the best things you can do for your Ford Explorer. Fresh oil lubricates, cools, and protects your engine's internal parts, helping it run smoothly and efficiently. Skipping this simple step can lead to serious issues like poor fuel economy and expensive repairs. By staying on top of your oil changes, you'll help your Explorer perform its best, save money on gas, and keep it on the road for years to come.

Ford Explorer Oil Change Schedule

The right oil change schedule is essential for protecting your Ford Explorer's engine. A good rule of thumb is to get an oil change every 5,000 to 10,000 miles or every 6 to 12 months. However, factors like towing, extreme weather, and city driving can put extra stress on your engine. To ensure long-lasting performance and keep your Explorer running strong, it's best to refer to the precise recommendations in your vehicle's owner's manual.
  • Check Owner's Manual
  • 10,000 Miles or 12 months
  • Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor Alert
  • Heavy Driving Conditions Every 7,500 Miles
