The 2010 Ford Explorer switches it up by not having a traditional oil dipstick. Instead, it offers a method of checking the oil through the infotainment device settings menu. To check the oil level, simply access the "vehicle Info" button on the main menu, then navigate to "Vehicle Status." Within this category, you'll find an option for "oil level," displaying the status indicator for your oil levels. This feature is now becoming more common in cars to cater to users who may not be comfortable with traditional oil checks. Additionally, the system will alert you if more gas is needed, allowing for a more proactive approach. Regularly reviewing this information is recommended, particularly due to past concerns about oil starvation in the SUV's engine.
