There are so many different kinds of Ford service offered by your local Ford dealer, ranging from minor tweaks right up to extensive repairs on faulty parts. Whether you need us to top up your fluid levels or fix brakes that aren’t stopping the car very well anymore, our technicians are up to the job.
5 Types of Ford Service Offered by Your Local Ford Dealer

1. Fluid Level Corrections and Checks
You can check your fluid levels at home, but our technicians can check on them instead if you’d prefer that. Our technicians will also replenish any fluid level that’s become low in your vehicle.
Fluids also need to be replaced at various intervals, with the oil needing to be changed most often. Motor oil often needs to be changed more than once a year. Your owner’s manual will recommend an oil change frequency for the Ford model you own, but most vehicles need their oil changed every 5,000 miles to every 7,500 miles.
2. Brake Service
Brake service could mean anything from replacing worn-down brake pads to performing lengthy repairs on various components of your braking system. No matter what problem you’re having with your brakes, let us handle it.
Learning the signs that your brakes need service is a great way to notice problems promptly. Signs of faulty brakes include noises when you’re braking, brake pedal vibrations when braking, reduced stopping power, and reduced resistance when you step on your brake pedal.
3. Engine Diagnostic
An engine diagnostic is a test we run using special software when your check engine light switches on. Our software can decipher the code that led to your check engine light turning on, and that code tells us which part of your vehicle is faulty. We can then start investigating the faulty system and find the root cause of the problem.
4. Transmission Service
Like with brake service, transmission service can be many things. It could be something as simple as a transmission flush, or you could need extensive repairs because part of your transmission system has failed. Signs that you need transmission service include hearing noises while your car is in neutral, having trouble changing gears, and slipping out of gear.
5. Headlight Checks and Replacement
We’ll periodically check on all of your vehicle’s lights to make sure they’re all bright and fully functional. Old lights can get dim, or they may begin to flicker. If any of your lights get dim or start flickering, then the bulbs may be going to burn out soon.
