Schedule Summer Ford Service

Routine service is essential to the longevity and responsiveness of your vehicle. It keeps your car safe, improves the efficiency of the ride, and even helps to maintain the value of the vehicle, if you’re planning to sell in the future.

But each season has different service tasks and needs. Here’s a look at the service you should schedule for your Ford vehicle this summer.

Check the Coolant and A/C

When the hot weather comes, you’ll want to keep your vehicle cool. Coolant is used to help regulate the temperature of the engine, especially when it’s hot outside. It’s important to check your coolant levels and your air conditioning system to ensure the vehicle won’t overheat and neither will you.

Inspect the Battery

Batteries typically last three to five years, but this depends a lot on environmental conditions. Extremely hot and cold temperatures can affect the battery’s capacity, which is why you want to inspect it early on in the season, so you know if it needs to be replaced.

Service the Tires

Changes in temperature can affect the health of your tires. When tires deflate or lose tread, they can drag on the surface of the road, which reduces fuel efficiency, or even struggle to stop properly. Get your tires filled, inspected, and rotated, if needed.
