* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.

  • Reliability (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    Reliability for the 2017 Explorer is average. While many owners experience trouble-free operation, some common issues reported include problems with the infotainment system, power liftgate, and certain engine components.
  • Maintenance (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    Maintenance costs are typical for a large SUV in its class. Routine service is straightforward, but parts and labor for more significant repairs can be on the higher side, especially for the more complex Platinum features.
  • Technology (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    Equipped with the SYNC 3 infotainment system, the Explorer Platinum offers a user-friendly interface, responsive touchscreen, and good connectivity options including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Advanced driver-assist features are also available and work effectively.
  • Comfort (4)
    4 out of 5 stars
    The interior is spacious and well-appointed, especially in the Platinum trim, with comfortable seating for front and second-row passengers. The third row is best suited for children or short trips. Road noise is generally well-managed.
  • Dynamics (3)
    3 out of 5 stars
    The 2017 Ford Explorer Platinum offers decent on-road manners for a large SUV, with predictable handling and a relatively smooth ride. However, it can feel a bit ponderous in tighter turns, and the steering lacks significant feedback.
