Top 5 Ford Maintenance Tips from Corwin Ford Spokane

February 28th, 2024 by

Whether you own a brand new or pre-owned Ford vehicle, the best way to get the most out of it is by following good maintenance protocol. This is why our technicians at Corwin Ford Spokane have put together some tips to keep your Ford vehicle in excellent shape for the longest time possible. Following these tips will power your Ford journey ahead with safety and excellent performance no matter where you go. 

Change the Oil Regularly

Have you ever been reprimanded by your mechanic for waiting too long for an oil change? It’s because it’s a critical part of basic car maintenance that you can’t afford to forget. Your mechanic knows very well that the oil is the lifeblood of your car. Waiting too long to change your oil can result in irreparable damage to your vehicle. 

Keeping your oil fresh will not only keep your vehicle out of the shop. It will also ensure that your Ford car, SUV, or truck runs smoothly.

Rotate Your Tires

Many Ford owners forget to rotate their tires. But tire maintenance saves lives so it’s important that you periodically change the position of each of the tires on your vehicle. Check your car’s manual for tire rotation mileage. Generally, you should rotate your tires every 5,000 miles or when you get your oil changed. 

Wash Your Car

Car maintenance isn’t just about getting your car to the shop. You should wash your car regularly to remove the dirt and grime which could eventually eat away at the finish and paint. 

Change Your Brake Fluid

Although you don’t have to think about changing your brake fluid as often as changing your oil, keeping your brake fluid fresh will prevent corrosion and rust, which can cause structural damage to your braking system.

Used Authorized Parts

Whether you do repairs or replacements on your vehicle, be sure to use authorized parts. Authorized parts are designed to fit into your existing vehicle as intended, which will allow car parts to run as intended.
