2013 Ford Explorer Brake Warranty

At David McDavid Ford we understand the peace of mind that comes with warranty-backed service. If your 2013 Ford Explorer is covered by any active Ford powertrain or component warranty that includes braking components, repairs and replacements performed by our certified service center protect that coverage. Even where specific brake parts are not factory-covered, choosing a franchise dealer for service preserves your vehicle’s documented maintenance history and prevents warranty disputes that can arise when work is done elsewhere. Our factory-trained technicians use OEM brake pads, rotors, calipers, and fluids installed to Ford specifications, and every repair includes clear documentation of parts and labor. We also offer service financing to help you get essential brake work completed now while managing payments. Before you commit to any outside shop, remember that warranty-covered repairs must be performed at a certified dealership to ensure compliance with manufacturer terms — our advisors will confirm coverage and explain available options. For convenience, you can schedule service online and ask about warranty validation when you arrive.

2013 Ford Explorer Brake Pads and Rotors

Replacing both brake pads and rotors at the same time on a 2013 Ford Explorer can provide superior braking performance and longer-lasting results compared to fitting new pads onto worn rotors. When rotors are scored, warped, or below spec, new pads won’t bed-in evenly and may accelerate uneven wear, vibration, or reduced stopping power. Our process begins with a detailed inspection of pads, rotors, calipers, and hardware; if machining rotors is feasible we will advise, but in many cases genuine Ford rotors deliver the best balance of fit, heat dissipation, and longevity. We emphasize the lifecycle value: investing in matched OEM pads and rotors now reduces the likelihood of repeated visits and improves long-term costs. Our technicians install parts to factory torque specs, perform proper bedding procedures, and road-test the vehicle for consistent pedal feel. We also maintain parts inventory to minimize your wait, and you can take advantage of current service specials or apply for service financing to spread payments while securing premium components and workmanship.
