The 2013 Ford Explorer is not equipped with heavy-duty brakes, so it's essential to maintain them properly. It's crucial to keep your brakes in top condition to avoid potential issues. Problems such as screeching noises, loose bearings, and brake lock-ups can lead to dangerous situations, including accidents. Addressing premature brake wear and replacing worn brake equipment, such as pads and shoes every 50,000 miles, rotors every 60,000 miles, and changing brake fluid every 20,000 to 45,000 miles, is necessary for safe driving.

    My 2013 XLT vehicle is definitely equipped with heavy-duty brakes. The standard brakes measure 12.8 inches in the front, while the heavy-duty brakes measure 13.9 inches in the front and 13.6 inches in the back. Be sure to choose your replacement parts carefully when needed.
