I am confused about my car it is a 2004 Ford Explorer and I am dumb when it comes to cars!?

I was wondering it has no four wheel drive and it has no front wheel drive how do you tell if it has rear wheel drive? What is the anti lock braking system for does it substatute for front wheel drive? It has Michalin tires cross terrain teadwear 480 traction A Temp B are those kind of tires good for winter? Are these all season tires? What is the panic button for on the keys and the red light tat flashes on the dash when the car is off is this an anti theft system? Thanks for all the answers!|||The red flashing light is to indicate that the Alarm is engaged. It's rear wheel drive if there is no four wheel drive. Anti-lock breaks do nothing regarding four wheel or two wheel drive performance, all about breaking, they are good to have on ice and snow however. The panic button just sets off your alarm if you see someone around your car and want the alarm to go off, or so you can find it in a dense parkinglot. Your tires are okay in the winter, they're all season which is good because snow tires must be changed once the snow and ice are gone.|||If it doesn't have 4 wheel drive, and goes down the road, it definitely has rear wheel drive if it doesn't have front wheel drive. Otherwise it would just sit there.





Open the glove box, look for a manual. It will tell you all about the car and how to use the various controls, and what the flashing lights mean.|||oklatom is correct in saying it is rear wheel drive. anti lock braking is for when your vehicles wheels are not all turning the same speed it takes over and will brake to try to make you avoid an accident. Talk to a tech at a dealership, they will be glad to assist you. If you need anything else email me at rtrobinson@cell1net.net
