If you own a 2018 Ford Expedition, then you already know how spacious this family-friendly SUV is. With all of the seats being occupied, it offers 591 litres (20.9 cubic feet) of space behind the third row. If that isn’t enough, then there are several solutions to help you bring everything along for your next road trip.
You can always get a set of conventional roof rails, even though your trim level probably already comes standard with its own. However, if you need something more specific, there are other choices as well.
Roof rack side rails will only go so far. Bolster yours with the addition of crossbars! These are mounted across the width of the roof and can help you secure extra luggage to the top with ease. You can also install a cargo box that is waterproof and lockable. This will enable you to store loose items. Bicycle racks are also available as are paddleboard holders and kayak carriers. If you need to bring recreational toys on your next adventure, these are the pieces you need to look at for efficient transport.

Being exposed to the elements daily, seals, strips, and mouldings can wear down fairly quickly. This is especially true in colder climates such as the harsh winters of BC. Preservation is key, but replacement may be necessary at some point.
To maintain the original seals, you should use a rubber or silicone protectant. Avoid oil-based products at all costs as this will damage the rubber material. Also, keeping it clean will help prevent the weatherstripping from sticking to your vehicle’s door when you open it. This is the most common cause of premature damage to rubberized components.
If you notice that the seals are letting rainwater leak inside, the section should be replaced immediately. Small tears can be repaired with seam sealers, and loosened sections can be stuck back on with trim adhesive. If an area is torn off, you may be able to fix it with special caulking. If there is a part that is worn down but still intact, foam rods can be inserted to make it last just a bit longer.
If it’s too bad, then you should replace the entire piece with OEM weatherstripping. You can find exact replicas at Ford Parts BC. Take a peek at the online shop to start your order now!
While many newer mechanisms inside Ford vehicles are designed for comfort and convenience, some are absolutely necessary in order to drive on the streets legally. Airbags are arguably one of the most important elements inside any model, and they are installed to provide cushioning in the event of an accident.Â
It wasn’t until 1998 that airbags were made mandatory in Canada and the United States. Now, automobiles are produced with many different styles of airbags including multistage front, side-mounted, curtain, knee blockers, and more.Â
They work when an impact occurs which triggers the balloons to deploy and rapidly inflate. Their purpose is to reduce the impact on the human body and minimize the riders’ chances of coming into contact with hard surfaces inside the cabin.Â
Cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs also now come with airbag deactivation. This is a sensor that can detect if a passenger is sitting in the front seat. If no prescience is detected - meaning significant weight is not placed on the seat - the airbags on that side will become inactive. They will not deploy in the event of a crash.Â
For a vehicle that is now 12 years old, the 2010 Ford Fusion Sport is fitted with some advanced technology. As the top-of-the-line model, it was also eligible for enhancements in add-ons, which many buyers took advantage of. If you are looking for replacement parts, you can find them easily!
The updates the Sport trim level gets include blind-spot warning, a rearview camera, a six-disc CD changer, and a 12-speaker Sony stereo system. Many of these elements - especially the driving aid - were well before their time and are still greatly appreciated by buyers today.
If your version of the Fusion Sport has voice-activated hard-drive-based navigation, then the stereo is reduced to a single CD instead of six. Keep in mind that the coveted Travel Link is also provided with this GPS route finder.
Because of the way the navigation system is built, it requires a memory card. If yours is full by now - which is most likely is - you can get another one with no problem. You may also replace the remote keyless entry system or key fob as well.
As a compact, light-duty pickup, the 2009 Ford Ranger Sport is equipped to handle difficult jobs and off-roading adventures. Plus, you can add all sorts of accessories to the bed to make it even better.
Make: Ford
Model: Ranger
Power
Engine: 4.0 L V6.
Transmission: 5-Speed Automatic.
Drivetrain: 4WD.
Horsepower: 207 hp
Torque: 238 lb-ft
Bed
The 2009 Ford Ranger comes standard with a 6-ft bed. However, the XL and XLT trim levels were also made with a slightly longer 7-ft box on the regular cab body style. There aren’t many accessories for the beds on any of these models. However, you can get a tonneau cover in Black to serve as protection from the elements. This foldable piece can be drawn back to gain access to the payload. It is also compatible with all three trim levels.
Exterior
The 2009 Ford Ranger can also be fitted with decorative chrome taillamp surrounds. Crafted out of ABS plastic - which is resistant to impact - it can be easily installed with adhesive backing. If you own a SuperCab four-door version, you may also get side steps to help passengers climb into the cabin.
Compatible with over 234 Ford vehicles, this particular power outlet replacement is a handy little piece to have.
It is suitable for 15 different positions including front, rear, right, and left installations. It can also fit into over 19 sockets including the auxiliary outlet, inverter, and so many more. This component serves as a power source for various accessories, and it can be used on models produced between 2005 and 2021.
No matter where you live in BC, the part of any vehicle to get dirty the fastest is the floor. Designed to be the base that holds everything in place - including our dirty shoes - the floor is surprisingly easy to keep clean, especially if you have a set of protective mats.
Typically crafted from carpet or rubber, floor mats can be removed in a matter of seconds. Winter or all-season styles are made of heavy-duty rubber that prevents water, mud, and salt from damaging the material underneath. These are the easiest to clean since they can be hosed off. Carpet-style mats should be shaken, vacuumed, and washed as needed. Both should be allowed to dry completely before you put them back inside.
If you have to deal with a stain, don’t fret! The process is quite simple, but it does take a bit of time to finish. First, vacuum the area thoroughly before applying a foam cleaner to the stained area. You can use a brush or wet sponge to agitate the solution to break up the stain. Once it has dried, vacuum it again.
While the term “air filter†may seem self-explanatory, it serves as an umbrella phrase in the auto industry. There are several different types including one for the cabin and another for the engine. Their purpose is to eliminate particles to prevent pollutants from getting inside the cockpit or the motor bay.
The main air filter is for the engine. Its job is to feed clean into the mechanism. However, if you hear the term “air filtrationâ€, it is typically referring to the cabin version which is responsible for removing dust, pollen, bacteria, and even mould from the vehicle's ventilation system.
Next, the air pump filter prevents contaminants from entering the air supply for the injection system. If any of these components are not functioning properly, the restriction indicator will identify the issue and alert you. You will then need to visit a mechanic to fix the problem.
Another term you may see is air pollution score. This is a rating given by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to every new model on the road. Ranking from zero to ten, the digit reflects the number of air pollutants that are generated while the vehicle is in operation.
