3 Car Services You'll Find at Your Plainwell Ford Dealership

Regular services will ensure that your Ford is always in excellent condition. Your car manual lists the schedule for all the services for your car. At your Ford dealership, we can perform the full range of maintenance necessary to keep your car working efficiently and effectively for years to come. These are a few of the services that we offer.

Brake Servicing

Your brakes are your Ford’s most important safety feature. They enable you to control your speed and stop at any time. Good brakes can make the difference between a near miss and a collision. Regular serving is the key to keeping your brakes in good condition, as it allows our technicians to carefully examine every part of your braking system.

We automatically check and replace the brake pads, examine the calipers and rotors for signs of damage, and check the entire system for possible leaks. We test and replace your brake fluid, and we’ll also examine the brake master cylinder and the brake fluid reservoir. When your brakes have been serviced by one of our Ford-trained technicians, you know they’re in perfect condition.

Battery Testing and Replacement

The battery is one of the most important components in your car. It provides the electrical charge that cranks your engine to start your car. A car battery has a limited lifespan, and it will usually need to be replaced within five years. The cause of most battery failures is the breakdown of the chemicals inside the battery that prevent it from storing and supplying electricity.

Our computerized battery tester can quickly test your battery and advise on any potential problems. For safety, it’s advisable to test your battery when it’s three years old and then once a year after that. This level of testing will ensure our battery always has sufficient power and won’t suddenly fail.

Wheel Alignment Service

Correct wheel alignment is important for many reasons including reducing wear on your tires, preventing damage to the axles and maintaining fuel efficiency. When your car is new, its wheel alignment is perfect. As time passes, your wheel alignment can shift slightly. This shift won’t be immediately noticeable but can become more pronounced.

Any damage to your tires or wheels, for example bumping into a curb, can also affect your alignment. Our technicians can fix this problem easily, as we’ll connect your car’s wheels to our computerized alignment machine. The computer will assess your wheels and subtlely shift each one until your alignment is precisely balanced again.

We have many other services available for your Ford. Call our service department today at Zeigler Ford Plainwell, and our Ford-trained technicians will take care of everything.
