When Should I Schedule Service for My Ford Expedition?
The different Ford parts in your Ford Expedition need service at different times. Here’s a look at when you should schedule essential service tasks.
Oil Change
Oil helps to keep the engine cool and the parts well lubricated. It also captures road debris before it can get into the engine compartment, which is why the oil in your Ford Expedition should be changed every 3,000-5,000 miles or 7,500-10,000 miles.
Battery
Most car batteries have a life of three to five years, but that can very much depend on your driving conditions, like where you drive and how hot it is. Schedule routine battery inspections, especially after the three-year mark, and watch for signs of battery wear, like dim interior lights or visible corrosion.
Brake Pad Replacements
The more reliable your brakes, the safer your vehicle. That’s why you want to schedule brake pad replacements in your new Ford every 30,000-70,000 miles. Look for signs of brake pad wear, like an extended stopping distance, or squealing sounds when you brake.
Tire Rotation and Service
Comprehensive tire service includes tread height inspections, tire pressure fill-ups, and tire rotations. Rotations ensure the tires wear down evenly, which protects the vehicle’s alignment. They should be scheduled every 5,000-7,500 miles.
Whether you’re searching for a family-friendly SUV or a Ford pickup truck that can really deliver on towing and tough-terrain capability, Helfman Ford has the ride for you. We also have the Ford service that makes the difference. Schedule service for your Ford Expedition today.
