    Ford Explorer: Are Your Rear Brakes Dragging... Most Likely Yes!

    Very disappointing. I can't get the dealership to respond to me, and I sent a private message to FordService on here a week ago with no response.

    Ford Explorer: Are Your Rear Brakes Dragging... Most Likely Yes!

    Thanks for the info. I will see if messaging them helps, as I haven't had luck with customer service so far. Seems that people are getting this covered by warranty but I had no such luck. The rental/loaner was not my main issue, just my reason for needing the car back and not being able to delay...

    Ford Explorer: Are Your Rear Brakes Dragging... Most Likely Yes!

    Figured I would jump in on this. Not sure why I didn't think to check here first, but this has me even more frustrated. I just had to have my 2013 Explorer (just over 40k miles) recently towed to the dealer because my rear calipers seized up. Sent it in thinking, "No big deal, I have the...

    Is this hitch carrier something that will work for the '13 Explorer

    Thanks again for all of the previous input and thank you for the continued input. I have decided to forego the carrier idea for now. I'm just going to have the movers take the motorcycle and hope it doesn't push me over my weight limits and hope that they can manage to be careful with it. I...

    Is this hitch carrier something that will work for the '13 Explorer

    Sorry for the delay. Getting ready for the move has preoccupied me a bit. Unfortunately, (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) she will be flying with the kids out to CA while I take the important stuff I don't trust the movers and storage company with(dog, firearms, and...

    Is this hitch carrier something that will work for the '13 Explorer

    Now I'm even more at a loss. From the manual: The tongue load seems to be directly tied to the overall weight of the trailer and the max seems to be 10%. The weight distribution might have something to do with that. I checked the sticker on the hitch as you suggested and it stated 500 lb...

    Is this hitch carrier something that will work for the '13 Explorer

    Yes, those are the numbers I am seeing as well but I can't discern how they apply to a carrier. Looking at diagrams of weight distribution hitches, all of the weight is still applied to the hitch receiver, so I don't fully understand how it works. I'm seeing lots of pictures of vehicles such...

    Is this hitch carrier something that will work for the '13 Explorer

    I have a 2013 Explorer LTD AWD with the tow package. I'm moving from VA to FL in a few weeks and am looking for options to take my motorcycle with me rather than having the movers take it and store it (my stuff will be in storage for a little while). Not sure if I can link Amazon here, but...

    Just want to introduce myself. Just bought a 2012 Explorer and I like to use the forums of the vehicles I own. Looking forward to reading through your forums.
