Factory Scheduled Ford Maintenance at Colonial Ford
When it comes to quick and simple maintenance needs, we're happy to accommodate any service, including those scheduled directly by the manufacturer. Simple needs like an oil change or replacing a dying battery can do wonders to keep your Ford vehicle running smoothly. The only thing you need to do as a driver is to pay attention to service lights and get anything serviced as soon as possible.
Oil Change
An oil change is one of the simplest maintenance needs but can cause larger issues if not addressed in a timely manner. Oil tends to build up residue over a period of time and eventually loses its effectiveness to properly lubricate your engine. If you let it go for too long, it can cause your engine to seize and fail while driving. This can mean the potential for expensive repairs that are easily avoided. Follow your service manual to know when to get your oil changed or just pay attention to your vehicle. Typically, newer cars can last about 7,500 to 10,00 miles or six months in between oil changes, whichever comes first.
Tire Rotation
For drivers around Monroe, CT, you might find yourself driving often. That means your tires tend to get worn down quickly and that can lead to traction issues that might prevent you from properly stopping in time to avoid an accident. With a tire rotation, you can help ensure even tire wear and tear which allows your tires to last you longer. We typically recommend that you get your tires rotated as often as you get your oil changed, so every 7,500 miles or six months. You don't usually want to wait longer than that because your tires take constant wear from continuous use.
Car Batteries
A car battery is equally important because it controls all the electronic functions of your car including your radio, electronic locks and lights. When a battery starts to lose its power, you might notice loss of radio function and dimming lights and over time, a battery loses power because it operates just like any other battery function. Typically after three years, you will want to change your battery out for a fresh one.
Brake Repair
Without top-quality brakes, you might find that you can respond as fast to ever-changing traffic situations around Newtown. Brakes will wear down over time with use and as a daily driver, you probably use them often. Through a number of factors, your brakes can range in how often they need to be replaced but we typically recommend that they are switched every 50,00 miles.
