Routine maintenance and service for your Ford vehicle keeps it running efficiently and smoothly for years to come. It also catches small issues before they fester, helping you avoid costly repairs. The factory-trained techs in our service department at our Gem City Ford Lincoln compiled the following list of common maintenance your Ford may require eventually.
Tire Rotations
Driving around Quincy daily, the tires on your Ford Expedition or Ford F-150 take a major beating. Tread wear is the most common result. Uneven tread wear compromises your vehicle's ability to maintain traction, grip, stability, and cornering.
Tire rotations solve this problem. During the tire rotation, our technicians swap the positions of each tire on your vehicle, exposing each tire to more even wear. At this time, we may also gauge the tread depth of your tires and readjust your tires' pressure.
Wheel Alignments
The constant rolling of your Ford's wheels can pull the wheels out of alignment. Unaligned wheels are wobbly and dangerous. A wheel alignment directly and positively impacts:- Fuel efficiency
- Ride quality
- Steering
- Longevity of your tires
- Overall fitness of your vehicle
Oil and Filter Changes
Oil and filter changes used to be seasonal. Experts once recommended changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles for traditional gas-powered vehicles. Today's vehicles can go up to 7,500 miles before needing an engine oil change.
Engine oil changes are a must. Engine oil keeps your Ford Mustang's engine lubricated and free of debris. This improves fuel efficiency and the engine's overall lifespan. The engine and cabin air filters can efficiently perform up to 12,000 to 15,000 miles.
Consult your owner's manual for more model-specific info. The manual provides model-specific details about when to bring your Ford to our Beardstown dealership's service department for factory-scheduled maintenance. While here, please take advantage of our year-round service and parts specials.
