Maintenance Guide

Note: These recommendations are for 2007 and newer Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.  For other brands and older models, please speak with your Service Writer.

We recommend bringing your vehicle in every 5,000 miles for routine maintenance. Many of you may be more familiar with the 3,000 mile intervals, however the increases in technology along with the improvements of quality, extends the maintenance intervals. To keep them running in optimal condition, we recommend the following maintenance schedule.

Here’s Why We Do It: Your Ford vehicle is now due for it’s first major service. All of the previous services have been performed.  Now our technicians use specialized equipment to be sure all mechanical, electrical and computer devices are working properly. At this time, we also recommend addressing your vehicles heating and cooling system.  Over time, your engine coolant becomes contaminated, losing it’s ability to protect your engine from freezing in cold weather conditions.  Your anti-freeze also loses it’s ability to protect the metal components in your engine from rust and corrosion, causing premature engine and gasket failure. Alignment is checked at set for optimal performance.
