Used Ford Explorer for sale in National City, CA

I worked with Hiram. We showed up after weeks of online research (years, really) and lots of talks and texts and emailing back and forth with about 7 dealerships up and down CA, UT, TX, MD, and FL. I knew what I could get price-wise, so I went into a local dealer to make final decisions on exterior and interior color combos. After prioritizing my color combos for these other dealerships to know which one to double down on, I spoke very briefly with Hiram. Told him what I was trying to achieve. He asked what price we needed to hit and in 5 minutes without any back and forth, he texted me he could get the deal done. So we did financing over phone and text and I went in that evening and drove away with my new pimped out minivan. I liked that it was straightforward and I didn’t have to play any games. 5 stars for Hiram and his boss. And 5 stars for Rene, the finance guy I signed papers with, who found a missed $500 additional off opportunity, and decreased our price further. Awesome experience.

The vehicle meets al my family needs. The vehicle was within my budget. The vehicle was well maintained. The interior was we’ll kept. Love it !

I want to say that the attention that Gaston Diaz at Southbay VW in National City gave to me was excellent. He helped me a lot to solve a problem and thanks to him I was able to recover my car. Thanks a lot Gaston

Great vehicle, no problems after two years, will recommend to friends and family. Due to the shortage of workers the service department is terrible. Overall the vehicle is a 4.5 for me.

Awesome ride. Plenty of legroom. Best SUV I have ever had. The captains seats in the middle row make accessing the rear seats easy. Seats are very comfortable

Best car for a long ride especially with multiple people. Quiet inside. Lovely interior and very comfortable. The power with the turbo is awesome but it does kick a little when engaging. Very nice looking vehicle. Sits up but not too high you have trouble getting into.

I swore all of my life I would never buy a Ford. Once I brought my F150 Harley, I loved it. Which made me eager to but this Explorer for my wife and daughter. We are now a FORD FAMILY.

I have heard a thump in the front end since I've had it and don't understand why this is happening 2017 Ford Exspoler XLT every time I turn my car to the left is there any recalls about this issue? William Wilson.

Good service . Was very happy . Fast and helpful .

Beautiful style and great handling Still would like to see the navigation screen look like that if the F-150 and such but much better than prior years. Love the comfort and luxurious feel

Nick was my salesman. I got my the car I went there looking to get within and few hours. They helped me even with poor credit.

The car meets all my family needs. We were looking for something bigger and reliable to take on trips. We are happy we our purchase. We our enjoying our new vehicle.

This is my 4th Ford Explorer over the last 20 years and I am very happy. Every time I upgrade is nicer in every aspect. I am glad that after so many people telling me to just go to another style and company, I made the right decision.

I like it. It does well. The front seats aren't very comfortable. The gas mileage is a little weak. The V6 isn't really enough for this size vehicle. Lots of interior room.

I absolutely love this car! It is sporty, roomy and easy to drive. Besides those qualities, it comfortably accomodates my 6'6" husband! YAY! This is by far my favorite car ever!

After looking on CarGurus, we saw they had a couple of Acura's at a very good deal. We had the opportunity to work with AJ, who help us out with seeing both, answering all our questions and test driving. After we were completely satisfied with the vehicle, we then talked with Pouria who help us get the best deal and even letting us trade in our extremely used older Acura for much more than we expected! We got through the deal and brought it home. After driving a few days, we noticed a noise with one of the wheels. After calling in they transferred us over to Carlos in the service department who asked us to bring it in and took care of the issue within 24hrs. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a good used car, great deal and wonderful people to work with. Thanks a ton AJ, Pouria, and Carlos !!

We’re sold on always purchasing the Ford Explorer XLT. This is our third Explorer. Satisfied with the most recent latest purchase. We’re having fun learning it’s features.

It drives really smooth & easy maneuverable vehicle,JAZZ SINGH STAR AUTO HELPED ME PICK IT OUT & it drives great,I’m so pleased on my purchase I’m glad I decided on the Ford Explorer

Love the inside room, 3rd row seat and the fact that the 2nd and 3rd row can be collapsed. Love the rear camera and all of the functions of being able to bring my phone apps up on the screen. So good for our very busy, on the go lifestyle

Bought the Explorer about 18 months ago. So far we have put 20,000 miles on it. No problems at all. The 2.3 eco boost engine is plenty powerful and the gas mileage is exceptional. We usually get between 26 and 28 mpg. Love the factory tow package, the heated seats, the heated steering wheel (you don’t know what you are missing if you have never had it), & the Apple car play is great for navigation using our IPhones .

The staff at Aaron Ford are easy to work with and are responsive to your needs. They were willing and open to any alterations I needed pre-contract and made the buying process stress free.

I absolutely love this vehicle it is very comfortable alot of leg room just wish ford would include weather tech floor mats in all the vehicles

The service department was great, awesome communication and same day service. We received a phone call within 30 minutes of dropping our car off with the service department. Called again when the car was finished.

I reluctantly traded in my 2013 Taurus for a Ford Edge in 2017. I considered this a downgrade in comfort and luxury. I had decided not to go with the Explorer at that time because of the lower fuel economy. When the 2020 Explorer XLT came out, it had a highway rating of 28 MPG which was the same rating I was getting from the Ford Edge. My Ford Taurus always surprised me with its excellent fuel economy. I could get 32 MPG easily on long drives. The Edge would give me 26 MPG on the highway and about 18 MPG around town. The 2020 Explorer is so much more comfortable than the Edge. The kids love sitting in their own chairs. They have plenty of space and when they start getting on each other's nerves or my wife's, they can easily split up with one of them sitting in the last row. I have managed better than 30 MPG on long trips with the Explorer. My average driving comes in at 25 MPG. I have had no mechanical problems with the Explorer what-so-ever. I now have 20,000 miles on it. I got the towing package which has really turned out to be useful. I use it to carry bikes with a hitch carrier. I have rented a U-Haul traller on several occasions instead of renting a pick-up truck. It is only $20 per day to rent a tailor. I really enjoy the Android Auto feature. The major complaint that I read on the Ford Explorer is that they claim that the shifting is not smooth or that the car is noisy. I find that the car rides very nicely and is very quiet when you are on the road. The 10-speed transmission is obviously going to be doing lots of shifting to get you up to speed. That is a lot of gears. Those gears are the reason i am getting over 30 MPG on a large 7 passenger SUV. I don't mind a bit of busy shifting in order to save fuel. I know that the KIA Telluride is very highly regarded in this category. The Telluride advertises 21 MPG overall. I am very happy to get the mileage I am getting now. I also got a pretty good discount from Ford when I bought the Explorer. I believe that the Ford Explorer is an ideal vehicle for families. Fuel Economy is unbelievable for a vehicle this size with so much power. I always put Explore in the Economy mode when I drive. I can feel the power drop when I put it in this mode. In the normal mode, I get about 26 MPG on the highway but in the Economy mode, I get 30 and better.

The best and easiest purchase experience I've ever had. Kevin Sale was friendly, helpful, with excellent communication throughout my whole purchase. Jeff and the rest of the Encinitas staff were A+ as well.

I had a really great experience and drove away the same day with car I wanted. These guys really do everything they can to make the experience stress free and relaxing.

Thanks to Miguel Prado for an excellent customer service. I also want to thank Mike Nguyen to get things moving when needed some help. Miguel has a been very courteous in his communication and explaining the details about my service. Thank you Miguel.

This car does what it is supposed to. It rides great it’s quite excellent ride, and the performance is very good.Fuel mileage is good for an suv wouldn’t change anything.

Emailed through Cars.com on a specific Ford Fusion Energi. Austin Webb responded in a few minutes and made arrangements to go see the car. Easy, no pressure, very friendly. We made a deal and I drove home in the Fusion. The dealer is very small - unlike many other dealers I have been to. They are friendly, efficient and no games. Highly recommend Encinitas Ford. I will be back there buying again in the future for sure.

Engine is loud and the information pod looks like is was just laid in. Car is built well and with the twin turbo is quick. Comparing it to my 2018 Explorer I would give it an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10 If Ford could get rid of the engine noise car would be a 10.
