Used 2018 Ford Explorer for Sale in Tampa, FL

I recommend Explorer those looking for comfort and spacious car interior. Everything is well designed and looks luxurious all over. I purchased this two months ago and might be a little soon to review its performance but so far I am happy with what I got. I just don't recommend the dealership where I bought from : " Ford of Orange, CA" stay away from them.

This car is reliable, comfortable, and best SUV all around. Very comfortable for long car rides and best value for what you're paying! Get the best of both luxurious and safe driving.

Have had it a couple of months and on the highway at 75mph with strong wind the windshield molding flew off !! This made me look online at the part and it shows more than 34 complaints of this happening.why in the world has this not been fixed! My car sounds like a window is down on the highway and rattling the dash ! Super sad about this . 40,000 miles on it .

Wonderful car to drive. My wife had a computer failure which did not let her drive the car. Failure was "Auto Park Assist Failure" disabled power steering. We had to have it towed to the dealer. Car has only 200 miles on it. WEIRD!!

This car does everything we need it to do and the AP for remote starting and vehicle health report is incredible.. the only fault we found in this entire car is the built in garage door opener needs major improvement we had to have it replaced the first week we owned the car and even after replacement it still is very intermittent and you must literally be in the drive way if it works at all. But outside of the garage door opener this car is incredible.

has a great look.handles well.plenty of room.a lot of electronic fetures.really like the sync feture.got good views from front seat.great explorer.would recomend to a freind

Needed an SUV for a family of 5. Third row is easy to access. More spacious than the other mid-size 3rd row vehicles. Nice features.

This past Sunday the 22nd I visited Elder Ford looking for a good deal for my dream car. I was very lucky to be served by Eddie Burke who is one of the sales associate. Eddie was very honest, understanding, and worked with me for several hours in order to help me get the best deal. Even though I couldn't get what I was looking for, I left this awesome dealer very happy and with a lot of knowledge on how to work towards getting a better deal. Eddie helped me understand every aspect of what I wanted and tried to help me the most. His customer service skills are highly recommended for anyone who wants to feel good while making the big step of buying a new car. Eddie is a great asset for this Dealership and I think because of him and other associates like him, this is a great place to buy a car. Elder Ford of Tampa also has a great selection of new cars with the latest technology. Thank you Elder Ford of Tampa, thank you Eddie Burke, and when I'm ready I would definitely go back to you guys to buy my dream car. Furthermore I will definitely recommend this dealership and Mr. Burke to all my friends and family.

roomy, sharp looking, comfortable and affordable, great value for my money spent. has all the traits of a more expensive suv but at an affordable price

Went in knowing what I wanted and my price. My sales person was Jose Pagan and was very helpful, knowledgeable, and extremely patient. I had to go back 2x - the first time the sales manager (Michael Cash) was useless and literally a waste of beautiful showroom floor space. I made an offer to him which he didn???t even awknowledge, only told me to come back with my wife before he???d talk numbers (in his words ???because it seems to me she is the decision maker???). Interesting sales tactic being condescending to a customer, but I quickly realized that watching the TV guide channel is a better use of my time vs uselessly talking to Michael. The 2nd time I went in I made an appointment with my sales guy Jose. Test drove the truck again which he had parked out front ready to go when I got there, and told him I want to talk numbers. This time he came back with Robert Tucci who was light years ahead of his counterpart in the area of customer service. I gave Robert my bottom line number (exact same offer I made my previous visit), and after some back and forth he made it work. Exactly what I wanted. Jose and Robert I feel went above and beyond to make the deal happen and are an all-star team. They make you feel welcome, not rushed/pressured, and I would highly recommend anyone looking for an exceptional experience to request their assistance. The 5 starts is attributed to their teamwork and customer service, and they were able to turn what would???ve been 1 star around. Both gentleman have called me even after the sale to make sure everything was ok and if I needed anything. THATS how you treat a customer and retain business/generate referrals. I still feel like the waste of new car scent that is Michael should utilize his time in a more meaningful role that is NOT customer facing - maybe making copies for Jose and Robert...? Anyway thanks again for the new whip Jose and Robert!

Great SUV inside and out! It exceeded my expectations, and I like it a lot better than the Lexus GX460 I just got rid of.

I went to Elder Ford with a F-150 in mind that came with specific options. Haider Fayiz was my sales associate and he listened to my wants and needs and the first vehicle he took me to was exactly what I ask for. Haider was polite and courteous. He immediately made me feel comfortable with my car shopping experience, and you know how pushy some car salesman can be. Not Haider. I felt comfortable and in control of my purchase the entire time. When it came time to talk about the bottom line both Haider and Robert Torino fought for the best deal the could for me and made sure I was comfortable with my monthly payment. When it was time to sign all the paperwork, Jim Brandt made it quick, easy, and simple to understand everything I was signing. After the sale, Ed Meneely and Brent Tedesco took care of all my accessory needs. I had multiple accessories installed (6) including full tint and my truck was in and out within 24 hours. I even received a loaner vehicle while I was without my truck. Great Service! I can???t give any more praise to the people at Elder Ford. From sales to management to the business office to the service department. A+/5 Star rating in every department!

Very upscale with lots of tech. This is the Platinum addition with great fit and finish. Worth the price. First American car I have owned in 50 years.

On March 3rd of last year I purchased my first BMW from Reeves Import Motorcars. I test drove a CPO (2012) 128i and knew I had to have it. Sales Associate Paul Salisbury & Advisor Michael Khoury educated me on the advantages of owning a BMW and the test drive did the rest. Nothing drives like a BMW. A recent experience in service was over and above the Reeves normal exceptional level. I asked my Service Representative Johnathan Weihman and the Service Manager Kevin Walker about some unusual wear on two spots of my Boston Leather Interior. Even though out of warranty they checked with BMW USA and replaced the parts - I was only responsible for the labor. A loaner car and a couple of days later my BMW was perfect again. From the purchase process to the outstanding service, Reeves makes it easy. They appreciate your investment in their product and treat you like family.

perfect car for my purposes, traveling, camping etc. I look forward to many fun trips and adventures, I need 25 words but for now I think this is about it.

Last week I had never heard of Hertz Car Sales, Tampa FL. I had been searching on my computer for my dream car for about 3 months and there it was! But Tampa is 150 miles away from my home. I decided to call the number anyway. A very nice young, Rafael Peña answered all of my questions so I made an appointment to go there and check it out. Since I am an elderly woman, this was a long way for me to travel plus I have a small dog that had to go along. Needless to say, I thought it was going to be a stressful day for me. Much to my surprise, I had a wonderful experience! Rafael did an excellent and efficient job with handling all of the details, plus he and other personnel took over helping me with the dog. My dog was treated with food, water and taken out for walks! I will certainly rate this business as the best and should be put on top of the list as an excellent place to go for a car.

love my new explorer, easy to use, drives great, upgraded radio is user friendly with the navigation, radio, cd, and satellite. so much room the seats fold in many ways depending on what type of room you need

We purchased our new 2017 Explorer Limited on 12/30/2017 during Brandon Ford's Year-End Sales Event. We had never seen a dealership so busy! After test driving 3 Explorers (2 pre-owned & 1 new), we made a decision to purchase new. Charles was very patient with our long, decision-making process and was able to answer all our questions. The finance stage of our purchase was just as enjoyable and Matt explained all of our options in great detail. Since our purchase day, we have been enjoying our new 2017 Explorer Limited and looking forward to many future trips. Thank you, Brandon Ford! We will be back!!!! Patti & Mike

bought this one to replace my old 2003 explorer 4 cyl turbo should be able to tow my bass boat ok drives smooth has good pickup

We now know why these guys are the #1 Ford Certified Dealer in the Nation. We were shopping for a Certified Ford C-Max (the plug in hybrid) last May and checked out several dealers in the Tampa Bay area. While many stores offered us great service and good pricing, the deal that we got at Brandon Ford was almost a thousand dollars less than the best deal we found anywhere else. On top of that, we had a completed deal for our trade in at another store that would buy ours for cash, and Brandon Ford offered us even more money to make it possible to do the whole deal there with them. What a TIME SAVER that was!!! JC Clements was our salesperson, and he stayed on top of everything and was very communicative about each step along the way. The vehicle was cleaned up and ready for us when we arrived to take delivery and all of the paperwork was printed out and waiting for us. Our finance manager, Barrie Moss, made the final step of the process quick and painless. He even saved us money over our own bank on the financing and found a way to extend the Ford Certified warranty for 8 years at a super affordable rate, because of the low mileage that my wife and daughter drive. We had a few electrical issues with the vehicle after we took delivery and that is where these guys really shined. They made that part as painless as possible and put us in a FREE rental while the work was completed... They even replaced the defective plug in charger at no additional charge, which saved us over $300. So glad we bought from the folks at Brandon Ford... They sure did us right!

I love this vehicle. Tons of power and every option you can get. I would recommend a Fors Explorer to anyone looking for a comfortable ride.

After purchasing our 2016 Ford Mustang from Jesus Van Der Henst for my husband, it was my turn! After checking several other dealers for a sedan I thought I might like, I decided to go back to Jesus & revisit the 2016 Ford Taurus he had me test drive the day before. He was right, this was my car & now IS my car! He was so helpful & patient with us prior to my decision to buy. I love having something that not many other people have & this fit the bill, right down to the color! Because of this being a full size vehicle, which I love, & a model that not too many others want because of the large size, I was sold. You buy a car because it appeals to you & having a personable Salesman, helps make the experience more exciting. Well, I have to say that coming in without knowing what I wanted & leaving with a car that I just LOVE tells me that Jesus made my time very enjoyable! He was such a sweet gentleman & very knowledgeable in answering all of our questions, as was our financial guide, Vincent Ippolito. I recommend Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel for a great selection of cars & wonderful service! Thanks for helping us purchase our "2" new cars, Jesus!!!

Rented a Ford Explorer and liked it so much bought one the next day. Super smooth ride, plenty of power and gas mileage was way better then I thought for this size. 27 MPG on the highway.

I tried for three and a half weeks to purchase a vehicle from Brandon Ford to absolutely NO avail. The finance manager there said since I had no credit, I would need a huge down payment or a co-signer. Neither which I had. I saw a vehicle on the website of Jarrett Scott Ford of Plant City and rode out there on St Patty's Day. The finance manager at Jarrett Scott Ford also told me I had no credit. Here is the HUGE difference in the two dealerships though....the manager at Jarrett Scott Ford actually took the time to go the extra step and personally called Ford credit and spoke with them directly. I have been at the same job for 28 years, paid off a furniture loan in less than one year and a couple other small things going in my favor. Next thing I know, they came out and said not only did I get the loan on my signature, but I also got the exact vehicle I wanted! I will ALWAYS recommend Jarrett Scott Ford of Plant City and Mike Shelburn who was my wonderful salesman. No pressure buying and they go that extra step for their customers! Great job to the entire team and a huge THANK YOU!!! I am still smiling while driving my 2013 Ford Edge SEL that I have lovingly dubbed "My Black Beauty". <3

More car for your money, Test drove Mercedes, Acura, and Audi. The Explorer has a smooth ride and more conveniences than the rest we test drove

I had a wonderful experience with this car dealership, and with mr.Dough Gerhardt in particular. I contacted them by e-mail to enquiry about a ford Mustang convertible, and I received prompt reply. They didn’t have the exact model I was looking for, but mr. Dough worked promptly with me in finding the vehocle and offering me the best price on the market. He answered all of my numerous questions (as a first car buyer you can only imagine that I had quite a few LOL) and very curteously offered me the assistance I needed, without being pushy. I ended up buying another vehicle at a dealership closer to me, especially because they were offering a special on an unlimited warranty, but I just wanted to let everybody know that I wouldn’t hesistate one second to get back with him if I needed another car today. And even when I let him know that I wasn’t buying a vehicle with them, he still very curteously replied wishing me the best of luck. Thank you, thank you, thank you! So yes, I am very pleased of the service

This is a great family car and has everything we wanted. I have owned and driven plenty of cars and this has by far been the best one yet.

My advisor was helpful and kept me informed throughout process including his schedule for days he would not be in contact great customer service....unfortunately I am only dissatisfied with my 2017 Explorer and amount of times and issues we have had and taken to your service or tarpon springs ford. I do not feel safe in vehicles being 19000 miles and drives like its 70000 miles. I had a 16 model I loved but this model for identical price and sport model (same as last model) the 16 model was more trustworthy and I felt so much safer. The axels were replaced and the ticking noise lessened which it is still there. Do to my health Bill's my credit score dropped but I have perfect pay history. I am looking to get payoff and up to 18 model or even maybe a used truck and car. I have begun getting paperwork together because I truly feel this car doesnt have a long life ahead and I don't even trust to drive to Orlando because we already have been stranded from battery dying when car turned off to get gas and would not restart so ford road serv came and helped. The car Boggs out and we can not find issue because it is not all the time but I am on disability and on remission so I drive 2 ohio every 3 to 4 months I truly feel i have a malfunctioning Ford and hope due to my mand family loyalty and A/Z plan I will be offered payoff with trade for new Explorer Sport with Michelin tires. I hope we can find a way to work this out I can show medical records if necessary for reasons why I need a vehicle I feel safe in not you that only works 50% time. My advisor was wonderful but if this isn't resolved then we may not purchase another Ford my grandmother also has 17 explorer basic model and ger 2012 ran like my 16 and we both wish we would never have bought new. I am financed through Ford with 0% 72 months @700 per month my credit has dropped which I can explain but I do again have perfect payment history on everything

I'm a car guy and it's important how the vehicle looks......and I really like this vehicle. It'll take me awhile to get used to all the new electronics. Once I learn everything, I think this will be my favorite vehicle I've ever owned.

Noah knew I was looking for something different. Looking for only a Competition Orange Mustang, V8 and standard transmission. No 2016 GT's left in Florida so I waited. Got a call from Noah to let me know a sweet Competition Orange Boss 302 Mustang had come in on trade! (The man pays attention and followed up when he didn't have to! A+) I went to the dealership today. Unfortunately Noah had the day off but I was hooked up with another wonderful salesman, Andy. Andy was an amazing, personable, smart salesman who went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable with the whole process and we went for a couple test rides, GT and Boss 302. He went the extra mile and a half with me because I took forever. Justin in finance was wonderful as well and explained everything to me. Everyone was ontop of their game. Anyway I drive out with a freshly detailed and gassed 2012 Ford Boss 302 Mustang! What a machine. Couldn't be happier with Noah, Andy, Justin or Ford of Port Richey! Thanks again guys and gals. 😁

This vehicle is excellent. It meets all of our needs. Very comfortable. We will definitely purchase this vehicle again. We recommend this vehicle to everyone who needs reliable transportation and comfort.

Brought my truck in for recalls. Juan explained what and why very well. He set us up for a ride home & pickup when done. Thanks again Juan, you deserve a raise!😁

Excellent in all aspects. Rides great, has every feature I can think of. It is a beautiful SUV and I am so proud to drive it.
