Ford Maintenance Schedule

Service Technician Working Under Vehicle
 

Just like with any other vehicle, in order to keep your daily driver running smoothly, it needs regular maintenance to stay in peak condition. We recommend bringing your vehicle in for regularly scheduled maintenance that way you can get ahead of any potential issues and continue keeping yourself and your passengers safe out on the New Lenox roads. Take a look at our detailed guide below for more information from our service center team at Sutton Ford.

What Ford Service Does My Vehicle Need?

No matter if you already own a Ford vehicle or you’re looking into upgrading to one of our new Ford vehicles, you absolutely should keep up with your routine maintenance and service. We’ve broken it down to make it easier to remember.

Every 7,500 to 10,000 miles: 

  • Perform a multi-point inspection
  • Lubricate unsealed joints
  • Perform brake and parking brake inspections 
  • Perform exhaust system and cooling system inspections

Once your vehicle has reached 100,000 miles, you’ll want to continue having your regular Ford service done every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. Along with those services, the following should be added to your routine.

Every 100,000 miles:

  • Replace spark plugs

Every 120,000 miles:

  • Replace the engine air filter

Every 140,000 miles:
