Before you hit the road in your new Ford Expedition, our Ford service team will provide you with a vehicle maintenance checklist to follow. The items on this list will help ensure that you keep your SUV running like new for many years. Your vehicle is one of the biggest investments that you will make in your lifetime. Keeping it properly maintained with routine maintenance and any necessary repairs will help you avoid problems down the line.
Common Tasks
Oil Changes: The thousands of parts underneath the hood of your vehicle require lubrication to prevent friction, which can lead to your engine overheating. It is vital that you stay up-to-date with this task. Depending on your driving habits, you will need to get your oil changed every 3,000-5,000 miles.
Check Fluids: There are six key fluids to watch – coolant, engine oil, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid. Whether it’s keeping your windshield free from obstruction or allowing you to brake properly, each of these liquids serves a key purpose.
Battery: Your car battery provides the initial spark to get power running throughout your vehicle. If you notice that your lights are dimmer than usual, your Ford Fusion is struggling to start right away, or your check engine light is on, head on in.
Lights: Optimal visibility is key to avoiding collisions for you and other cars on the road. Our team will check that each light, even on your license plate, is illuminated.
Stop by our Folsom Lake Ford service department to keep your vehicle running at its best and to avoid issues in the future. We look forward to working with you!
