Ford Maintenance Schedule

Ford Service Technicians

 

Whether you’re the proud owner of a rugged F-150, an adventure-ready Bronco, a sporty Mustang, or another Ford model entirely, you know that your vehicle was designed to provide a world-class driving experience on Macon roads and beyond. When you follow the automaker’s recommended Ford maintenance schedule, you are helping to maintain that experience for as long as you own your vehicle. Get all the details in the following guide from Five Star Ford Warner Robins, then contact us to set up your next Ford service schedule interval.

What Ford Service Does My Vehicle Require Next?

When it comes to your Ford service schedule, you should always expect to have routine maintenance tasks such as oil changes, filter replacements, and tire rotations, which are each performed every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. This mileage interval also serves as the baseline for the Ford service schedule in our Ford scheduled maintenance guide, with some additional services you’ll want to have on your list next time you bring your vehicle in. 

 

Before we proceed, please note that you should always check your owner’s manual for specifics about your vehicle. These general recommendations are only meant to give you a decent idea of whether you’re due for a tune-up. Key services of our Ford maintenance schedule include: 

 

Every 7,500 to 10,000 miles: 

  • Multi-point inspection
  • Lubricate unsealed joints
  • Brake and parking brake inspections 
  • 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. That said, be sure to include these other important maintenance checks within your Ford service schedule in order to address other vital components of your Ford sedan, SUV, or truck. See below:

 

Every 100,000 miles: Replace spark plugs

Every 120,000 miles: Replace engine air filter

Every 140,000 miles: Inspect accessory drive belts

 

Every 150,000 miles:

  • Replace accessory drive belts
  • If manual transmission, replace fluid
  • Replace orange coolant
  • Change engine air filter
