What I’d like to know is why my Explorer didn’t register a system warning that the battery was weakening? It just suddenly died.🤷🏾♂️
Glad I came across this video. The same thing happened to my 2018 explorer tonight.
I have an ‘18 Explorer & it won’t start but dashboard lights up like normal.
This just happened, however it shows there is no fuel!
My 2020 is doing the same thing I drove in pretty deep water and it stopped but restarted after. Could have been flooded previously
@@callielangdon1190 its got no gas in it!

Omg, I have the same year car and mine is doing the same thing right now 😒 thank you so much for this video.
check if its still under warranty. Ford replaced our battery because the battery expires next year
Mine did the same thing today. Same model and year. We had to replace the battery. Hopefully we won’t have problems tomorrow.
Was your Ford battery included in the bumper to bumper warranty?
If it's anything like mine, you will still have this issue. I guess maybe the starter is the next thing to check out. Or just trade it in....
Thank you!!! This is happening to my car right now. 2017
for the price of these suv they chose a cheap unreliable battery. good luck!
This is happening with my wife's 2018 right now. Literally. Battery has been replaced, there was some previous issues with GPS and NAV sensors. She was stranded 2 hours away from home the last time it died. That time, it died while driving down the road at 55. Now it's this starting issue. I am having my son go help her and tap on the starter to see if that's the issue. These cars these days are so overpriced and underbuilt.
also check if the connection to the battery terminal is tight. a simple bump can disconnect the connection thereby looosing power even when driving
@@jsnantic It's all been checked. Car wouldn't jump either. Once it's fixed, I'll be getting rid of it. Tired of all the problems with this car.
Omg. Now we need to try this tomorrow. My 2018 suddenly wouldn’t start tonight. I left it where we parked.
its a good car, they just put a cheap battery in these new models
@@jsnantic yeah, I love this suv……waiting for tow truck to take it to my mechanic to make sure it’s not just the battery. Ugh.
The same thing happened to me and I couldn’t go to work 2018 Ford Explorer less than 29000 miles ohh I love this car so much that a bought a new battery
we love ours too. Its just that on new vehicles they dont put dependable batteries. no problem ever since
it happened today, my 2018 has power to all functions but does not start, jump start it did not help, I could not from video locate where the starter is?
This just happens to us this morning. Same exact y/m/m
check if you're battery is still under warranty
Did anyone experience electrical issues leading up to this issue? This just happened to me but for ~3 months I’ve been having issues with gps, and non-responsive touch screen
no electrical issues on mine
My ‘18 Explorer won’t start. It’s been cold in Michigan so I make a point to run the motor everyday. Today it would’nt turn over. I gotta see if my battery is under warranty still. Smh
I have a 2017 Explorer and I just brought a new battery and replaced my keyfob batteries and all of a sudden it will not start, no nothing its dead, can I jumpstart a pushbutton vehicle.
Did the dealership themselves said it was the battery and suggested to replace it?
NO. i diagnosed it myself by using an extra battery. called them and found out its still under warranty. brought the car and the old battery to the dealership and they replaced it
@@jsnantic Gotcha! My 2016 keeps going dead overnight after taking the battery to AutoZone for recharging. Are you worried that it's going to happen again since Ford replaced your battery with their own? Better if I buy a proper battery somewhere else?
Having the same exact issue on our 2018. So it was for sure the battery and not the relay and starter?
I tapped the starter while somebody starts it .It worked until we get home and it did the same thing. 100 percent the battery. I brought the batteryand car the next day to the dealerrship the next day using my spare battery on the explorer. They replaced the battery since its still under warranty.
Mine too 2018 time for a recall
@@jsnantic Just an update the battery swelled, and ate up the cables. Bad / Cheap battery from Ford caused the issue in a 2 year old vehicle. Replaced the battery and cables.
yeah.. fords do that..
I have a 2018 explorer XLT. I like the car. The car suddenly won't start but I was able to jump start the car. I am going back to Toyota or Honda, no more American brands.
Good idea, Asian cars don’t have battery issues.
@@googlemail6996 They all have their issues. Let's not pretend that they don't. I drove Chrysler and Dodge for over 20 years. No issues. First time buying Ford (a 2018 Explorer and a 2018 F150) and they have been nothing but trouble. The F150 has had 4 oil pan oil leaks in 80K miles. The explorer has had many sensor issues and now is not starting with about 45K miles.
