Buying a used 2020 Ford Explorer Police Intercept? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2020 Explorer Police Interceptor has 2 recalls in this group: washer fluid contaminated with brake fluid and a rear axle bolt issue. Both deserve explicit repair documentation, since they involve distinct systems and cannot be resolved by a general service receipt. The complaint record contains 1 NHTSA owner complaint, an unverified power train report, with 0 crashes, 0 fires, and 0 injuries listed. That report does not establish a recurring failure pattern.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify contaminated washer fluid recall remediation.
- Request rear axle bolt recall repair documentation.
- Ask about power train symptoms and related repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Ford dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
