Vehicle Health Tips

All cars get old eventually, but there is plenty you can do to keep your vehicle in top shape and looking great for longer.

For a healthy radiant exterior, wash your car regularly to remove the salt, grime and pollen that can damage paint, but never dry it off in the hot sun that can cause unsightly water and soap spots. Once your car is completely dry, protect its body with a layer of wax.

Wipers need to be changed about once a year, if they start to streak or smear change them right away. And if you run out of windscreen fluid never refill the fluid reservoir with soap, soap can run off dry on your car’s body and damage the paint job overtime.

To help maintain a healthy engine, replenish your engine oil and change your oil filter professionally according to your service schedule. You should also keep your vehicle topped up with recommended level of coolant to help prevent engine overheating.

We also recommend doing a walk around your car every so often to check the indicator and brake lights are working and have your tires inspected by a professional to ensure they are in top condition. But, remember every Ford is different, so check your owner’s manual or ask your dealer for exact info on how often to replenish fluids or replace cars.
