Oil Changes

Getting regular oil changes your Ford car or truck is one of our easiest and most important services. Clean oil helps ensure that the engine's key parts function properly. You are less likely to experience mechanical problems and breakdowns when these vital components run at their best. We can ensure the engine can stay in great condition when you follow a routine oil change schedule and bring your Ford to our service center near Jasper, IN, about every six months or 7,500 miles.

The oil in your Ford will degrade over time because of constant heat and pressure as you drive around Loogootee, IN. Regularly having routine oil changes will enable our technicians to replace the old oil with new oil to help the engine perform better. New oil is better at lubricating the engine to prevent damaging friction and reduce engine malfunction or breakdown risk. New oil can also improve your Ford's fuel economy by enabling the engine to run more smoothly and efficiently.

Brake Service

Routine brake service is another essential maintenance that ensures you will drive safely. Your brake system must function properly to slow or stop your Ford vehicle and help you avoid collisions. However, like any other component, your brakes can wear out and require maintenance and repair services. The service center at our Petersburg, IN, area dealership has certified technicians who use the latest equipment to take care of your brakes.

It is important to have a brake inspection every time you come in for an oil change to ensure the brakes are in good condition. Brakes can last up to 60,000 miles. However, your driving habits and environments can cause parts of the brake system to wear down sooner than expected. Frequent brake services may be necessary if you often drive over hilly terrain, spend a lot of time driving in heavy traffic, or drive on challenging road surfaces.

The pads and rotors can wear down faster than other brake system parts. Several signs indicate you must visit our service center soon to repair the brakes. These signs include the following every time you press the brake pedal:

• You hear unusual screeching or whistling noises
• Your Ford vibrates every time you slow down
• You feel a grinding sensation
• It takes longer to slow down and come to a stop

Tire and Battery Service

The tires are another essential component to your safety on the road, so keeping them in good condition through on-time tire inspections is important. The technicians at our service center can perform various tire services, including routine tire rotation and balancing, checking the air pressure, and inspecting the tires to ensure no cracks or other issues could affect your Ford's performance and safety. They will also inspect the treads to ensure tires can effectively grip the road.

Equally as important is the condition of your car or truck's battery. Since it's the main power source, you won't even make it off the lot without a working battery. Our battery service includes checking that it has sufficient charge, tightening loose connections, inspecting the surface for signs of damage or corrosion, and of course, replacement battery installation as needed.
