What Owners Say
"Apple Car Play continually DROPS OUT & unreliable. Have had to do a Soft System Reset to get it online again."
Anonymous A., RI (2025 Ford Explorer Active 2.3-L 4 Cyl turbo)"Unable to connect to internet"
Anonymous, ON (2025 Ford Explorer ST 3.0-L V6 turbo)"Android based phones will not pair properly. if someone calls they can't hear the driver. Driver hears caller. requires driver to disconnect phone from Bluetooth and call back. Ford is aware and has a special service message claiming software update by "late q1 2025". Hasn't happened and no updates as to what will happen or when. I think this is a safety issue since most people won't stop to manipulate the phone which means they're taking eyes off the road to work the phone."
