Vehicle Fluids

• Engine Oil: Engine oil is responsible for keeping your engine clean of debris and providing lubrication for the moving parts. Without routine oil change appointments, the engine oil can lose its efficacy and lead to serious damage to your engine.
• Radiator Fluid: Radiator fluid helps keep your engine from overheating and should be checked after your car has been driven, not when it's cold. If your radiator fluid is low, it can cause your engine to overheat and cost you expensive repairs.
• Transmission Fluid: Your vehicle's transmission fluid is responsible for keeping the shifting gears in your transmission lubricated, whether you use a manual or automatic transmission. Without proper replacement when necessary, this can lead to expensive repairs due to transmission gears grinding against each other.
• Power Steering Fluid: Responsible for keeping your vehicle's power steering working while keeping it lubricated, power steering fluid adds power to your ability to control your Ford's wheels. Without routine maintenance, this might cause an inability to control your vehicle safely.
• Brake Fluid: Brake fluid helps keep your brakes pressurized, providing power to your braking and keeping your vehicle running safely. If not properly managed, your brake fluid can leak or run low, leading to issues with braking and stopping safely.
• Air Conditioning Coolant: Important during the summer months, your vehicle needs a fresh reservoir of air conditioning coolant or refrigerant to ensure your cooling system works properly. Without it, you might find that your windshield fogs up and hampers your view of the road.
