Equipment and practical details
Ford Explorer · Generation 5, U502 · USA · 07.2010 - 05.2016. These features occur in different versions of this generation. They are not a shared specification for every car: check the selected trim for the equipment you need and how it operates.
- Power tailgate
- Check a complete opening and closing cycle, the opening height and operation from the available controls.
- Folding rear seats
- This changes the balance between passenger and luggage space. Check whether the folded surface is level and whether long items can pass through.
- Heated steering wheel
- Check the control and whether the rim heats evenly.
- Seat-position memory
- Check that positions can be stored and recalled, particularly if several drivers will use the car.
- Steering-wheel reach adjustment
- On a specification with reach adjustment, the distance to the steering wheel can be changed. Check the adjustment range and column lock with the seat in your usual position.
- Ventilated seats
- Try the different settings and listen to the fans. Seat upholstery alone does not establish that this feature is fitted.
