How Often Do I Need Ford Service?
Different driving styles and environments can have an impact on your vehicle and driving needs, but there are a few common services you’ll want to bring your vehicle in for regularly. Most Ford service needs to be done every 5,000-7,000 miles, depending on your vehicle’s needs.
- Oil Changes: An oil change is essential to keeping your vehicle’s engine well-lubricated and clean and to prevent overheating. Schedule Ford oil changes every 3,000-5,000 miles.
- Tires: Our tires have a lot of different needs. You may have to change them out for the season or bring them in for inspections if you notice leaks, but you’ll definitely want to come in for a tire rotation every six months or 7,500 miles.
- Brake Pads: There are a lot of moving parts in the brake pads on your new Ford, so if you notice your brakes aren’t working as efficiently, bring your car in for service right away. Otherwise, brake pads should be replaced every 30,000 to 60,000 miles.
- Battery: Your battery will need to be inspected as it gets older, starting after three years. It should be replaced no less than every five.
