Ford Explorer Reliability Ratings

What determines how reliable a vehicle is? When determining a vehicle’s reliability, it’s important to consider its past performance. Car & Driver and J.D. Power are two of the top-rated vehicle reliability experts in the automotive industry. They pool together data from thousands of drivers from Perry and all over the rest of the country. This data is used to score the reliability of vehicles, Car & Driver on a scale of 0-10, and J.D. Power on a scale of 0-100. 

 

Over the years, the most recent Ford Explorer models have seen a noticeable increase in their reliability scores. According to these two sources, the Ford Explorer’s overall reliability score has consistently been in the 8-8.5/10 range for Car & Driver and in the 85/100 range for J.D. Power, putting it high in its category for reliability.
