How Seasonal Maintenance Keeps Your Ford Reliable
In North Carolina, the weather can change dramatically, from hot and humid summers to cold, icy winters. Each season presents unique challenges for your Ford vehicle. Keeping up with seasonal maintenance ensures that your car remains reliable and safe on the road, no matter the conditions.
Preparing Your Ford for Spring and Summer
1. Air Conditioning Maintenance for a Cool Ride
As temperatures rise, your Ford’s AC system becomes crucial. Have it inspected for leaks, blockages, and performance issues. Replacing the cabin air filter is also a good idea to ensure fresh air inside.
2. Keep Your Tires in Top Condition
Tire pressure is critical in the summer heat. Regularly check tire inflation and tread to avoid issues and rotate them for even wear across all four tires.
3. Keep Your Ford's Exterior Shiny and Protected
Protect your Ford’s paint during the summer by regularly washing and waxing it. This keeps your car looking pristine and shielded from UV damage.
Preparing Your Ford for Fall and Winter
1. Inspect Your Battery
Before the cold sets in, test your battery to ensure it can handle the winter months. Replace corroded terminals to avoid getting stranded.
2. Test Your Brakes
Your brakes are vital during winter weather. Ensure they’re in peak condition by having them professionally inspected and serviced.
3. Check and Change Fluids for Winter
Cold weather can thicken oil, so make sure to use the correct grade for winter. Also, check antifreeze, brake, and transmission fluids regularly to ensure your car performs at its best.
4. Keep Your Heater and Defroster in Top Condition
As winter approaches, your heater and defroster become essential for safety and comfort. Check these systems for proper operation to ensure clear windows and a warm cabin.
