There haven't been any significant battery problems reported with the 2017 Ford Explorer. Like most car batteries, it may experience common issues, many of which are typically caused by user behavior. For instance, if the battery is not charged regularly and is drained by using accessories like the radio or headlights without the engine running, it could become depleted. Over time, batteries may lose strength and might need to be replaced when they no longer start the car reliably. This indicates they are no longer holding a full charge from the alternator. Battery replacements usually range from $150 to $250, depending on their capacity and brand.

    If you're experiencing excessive battery drainage in your 2017 Ford Explorer, it's recommended to utilize an electrical testing device on the fuse box to detect any abnormal electrical discharge.
