Summer Maintenance for your Ford New Jersey

As winter gives way to blooming spring flowers and the allure of summer road trips beckons, ensuring your vehicle is ready for the adventure ahead is essential. Amidst mapping routes, booking hotels, and creating checklists, remember to include car maintenance as a crucial part of your summer road trip preparation. To help you get started, here are some of the top items to check before you embark on your journey:

Check tires and tire pressure.

Before embarking on your journey, examine all four tires, including the spare tire, if you have one. It is advisable to assess the tire pressure when the vehicle has been stationary for a while, and the tires have cooled. Inflate the tires as necessary to reach the recommended pressure specified by the vehicle manufacturer. You can find this information in the owner's manual or the driver-side door jamb sticker. Additionally, be vigilant for any cuts, gouges, or bulges on the tires' sidewalls. To assess the tire tread, insert a quarter into the grooves with the head of George Washington facing downwards. If the top of George Washington's head is visible, it is time to consider replacing the tires.

Listen to and feel the brakes.

In case you detect a grinding noise or experience vibrations while applying the brakes, it is recommended to promptly take your vehicle to an auto repair shop for a thorough brake inspection. A skilled service professional will carefully examine the brake system, checking for any fluid leaks and assessing the condition of the brake pads, rotors, shoes, and drums. If you have any questions about your Ford vehicle's brakes, don't hesitate to contact any of the friendly and knowledgeable service advisors. 

Secure and test the battery.

Ensure your car battery is thoroughly inspected to verify that the cable connections are clean and securely fastened and that the hold-down hardware is tightened correctly. It is advisable to seek the assistance of a Fullerton Ford service professional who can perform a battery check to assess the battery's remaining capacity.

Top off engine oil and other fluids.

Check that engine oil, coolant and brake, transmission, and power steering fluids are at the correct levels for safe vehicle operation. If your Ford uses conventional oil, a 5,000-mile interval between changes is reasonable, and for synthetic oil, intervals can be around 7,500 miles or more. Be sure to check your owner's manual for Ford's recommendations on the brand and weight of oil and oil change intervals. Using another type of oil can cause damage in the long run and can invalidate a warranty. Here are the current oil change specials.

Replace wiper blades and replenish windshield cleaner.

Over time, rubber wiper blades undergo natural deterioration. If you notice that the wipers streak or cannot effectively clear the windshield, it is recommended to replace the blades. Additionally, ensure that the windshield washer reservoir is filled with fluid specifically formulated to remove debris, including insects. Finally, perform a test to ensure that the nozzles adequately spray the fluid onto the windshield.
