Maintenance and care

SERVICE RECOMMENDATIONS

Whenever possible, Ford has
designed parts that do not require
servicing. However when servicing
is required, Ford's goal is to make
servicing your vehicle as easy as
possible. To help you:
• We highlight do-it-yourself items
in the engine compartment for
easy location.
• Often, parts (such as the
headlamp bulbs) may be
replaced without tools.
• We provide you with a Service
Guide that makes tracking
routine service of your vehicle
easy.
If your vehicle requires
professional servicing, your
dealership can provide the
necessary parts and service. Check
the Warranty Information Guide
to find out what parts and services
are covered. Use only
recommended fuels, lubricants,
fluids, and service parts
conforming to Ford specifications.
Motorcraft parts are designed and
built to provide the best
performance in your vehicle.
