The full-size SUV segment received its important new addition through the Ford Flex which rolled out in 2009 before its production ceased in 2019. The Ford Flex is built on the D4 platform and offers two engine options: a 3.5L Duratec V6 engine and a more powerful 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine, which delivers 365 horsepower starting with the 2013 model year. The vehicle uses two specific and competent power platforms of 6-speed automatic transmission for optimized driving capabilities. The Ford Flex offers either front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD) options, ensuring versatility in various driving conditions. A Ford Flex model can easily host six or seven passengers due to its 4,468 lb FWD base weight that rises to 4,640 lb when using the AWD system. Its 117.9-inch wheelbase provides plenty of interior space. The dimensions of the vehicle consist of 201.8 inches for length and 75.9 inches for width and 68 inches for height and this combination creates substantial interior space with rear parking sensors and an 8-inch touchscreen display present only in higher trims. Manufacturers have regularly updated minor components of the Ford Flex production since its inception while maintaining its market relevance. As a Ford Flex owner one should use genuine Ford parts to preserve their vehicle because these components meet the factory standards which guarantee performance reliability.
Ford Flex issues group into interior hardware, front braking, and driveline sealing. In the cabin, a broken center console latch causes a loose lid and poor retention. Replacement of the center console latch restores latching and normal function on the Flex. For braking, defective front caliper anchor brackets can grind rotors and eat brake pads quickly. Noise during stops and dust on wheels often appear. Replace the brackets with updated pieces, install new rotors and brake pads, then bed them. Inspect hose routing and confirm even clamping on the Flex. In the driveline, leaks at the axle area point to a failing axle shaft seal or PTU cover seal. Transmission fluid may show red, PTU fluid appears brown on the Flex. Replace the axle shaft seal or reseal the PTU as required. Clean the case, check venting, and verify fluid level after service. A brief road test confirms quiet braking and dry housings. Ford guidance recommends torque checks on hardware after heat cycles. Regular inspections keep the Flex reliable between services. Follow Ford procedures for seal installation depth and bracket torque. Finishing steps include a brake feel check and a short alignment sweep on the Ford Flex.

Ford Flex Parts Questions & Answers
- Q: How to Service and Repair the Ignition Lock Cylinder on Ford Flex?A: The servicing procedure for the ignition switch lock cylinder begins by inserting the ignition key into ACC position. A suitable tool should be used to push the release pin while you take out the ignition lock cylinder. New lock cylinder installations should require programming of new Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) keys before installation. The procedure for key programming appears in the Antitheft and Alarm Systems section under Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT) Key Programming Using Diagnostic Equipment. The installation of the new lock cylinder requires following the opposite order of removal procedure steps.
- Q: How to service the LH temperature blend door actuator on Ford Flex?A: Service the LH temperature blend door actuator by reaching through under the instrument panel from its left-hand side. Start by disassembling the actuator through removal of its two installed screws. Begin by unconnecting the electrical connector which attaches to the actuator. The removal procedure for the actuator should be reversed to complete installation.
- Q: How to remove and replace the front bumper cover on Ford Flex?A: Cautiously remove and install the front bumper cover only when your vehicle is in NEUTRAL position on a hoist. Start by disconnecting the 4 upper front bumper cover scrivets followed by the 2 upper front bumper cover bolts then tighten their bolts to 6 Nm (53 lb-in) when reinstalling. The second step involves extracting the 2 front bumper cover scrivets which are situated beneath the license plate area. Remove the front lower air deflector with the bumper cover since you will need to also take out the 3 lower air deflector-to-radiator grille support scrivets. The 3 sets of 2 Nm (18 lb-in) tightened screws secure the front bumper cover wheel house along each side of the vehicle while removing the screws requires 6 pieces. The installation requires disconnecting the fog lamps and front parking aid electrical connectors only when fitted. The operation for releasing the bumper cover begins with a pull motion toward the rear upper side of the bumper cover mounting reinforcement while disassembling the part. Examine the bumper cover mounting reinforcements for harm before deciding on replacement if needed. Reinstallation of a new bumper cover begins with returning components to their original positions during removal while following the opposite steps to install the new component.
- Q: How to remove the Seat Cover from the backrest with fold flat on Ford Flex?A: The procedure for removing the fold flat seat backrest cover starts with practicing safety while handling the live air bag module in the proper manner so that the deployment door/trim cover/tear seam stays away from body parts which prevents unintentional deployment. The first step involves seat front passenger removal then unfastening the two guide sleeves connected to head restraints. You must take the inboard recliner lower cover apart by removing its screws from both the back and side while pulling to free the retainers. Begin the removal process of inboard recliner upper cover by first releasing its front clip then rotating it clockwise. The manual lumbar handle can be detached when it is equipped by accessing the clip after removing the cushion trim cover. To separate the cushion side shield just remove three screws and distinguish its clips by pulling the shield out. Detach the front clip of the outboard recliner upper cover before pivoting it backward then draw the fold-flat release strap through the opening. Use the outboard recliner strap to fold down the backrest while separating the wire harness and cable retainers until every J-clip is released and proper position of the cushion trim cover flap is attained. You must remove pin-type retainers from the side air bag module wire harness while detaching the manual lumbar cable before routing the harness out from under the seat seat. First reverse the backrest trim cover to reach the hog rings you need to remove after you have taken away the four bolts that fasten the backrest frame to the recliner. Thread the fold-flat cable together with the lumbar cable and the backrest wire harness into the trim cover openings followed by opening the deployment chute through clip squeezing. The deployment chute needs to be pulled through the backrest foam pad after breaking off the second hog ring row and untaping the backrest trim cover J-clip. You must inspect the side air bag module cavity for foreign substance before checking the deployment chute for damage while replacing the chute when needed. Place the backrest trim cover with the outside surface facing in toward the backrest foam pad then guide it down while placing the deployment chute properly near the side air bag module. Connect the resistant clips which secure the backrest trim cover J-clip to the backrest frame wire. Connect the hog rings properly while routing wires and cables before placing the backrest assembly which needs to be fastened by recliner-to-backrest frame bolts at 63 Nm (46 lb-ft). The fold-flat cable retainer and cover receive installation and manual lumbar cable attachment must be completed when present. Restrain the wire harnesses and cables by connecting the side air bag module electrical connector and backrest feed electrical connector to their proper terminals. First attach the retainers on the backrest trim covers before installing the inboard upper recliner cover then continue with inboard and outboard recliner lower covers. The installation process requires you to add the manual lumbar handle together with the two head restraint guide sleeves if they are available before you put the front passenger seat back into position.
