different specifications and performance features. That's why it's
important to rely upon your Ford dealership to properly diagnose and
repair your vehicle.
Ford Motor Company has recommended maintenance intervals for
various parts and component systems based upon engineering testing.
Ford Motor Company relies upon this testing to determine the most
appropriate mileage for replacement of oils and fluids to protect your
vehicle at the lowest overall cost to you and recommends against
maintenance schedules that deviate from the scheduled maintenance
information.
Ford strongly recommends the use of genuine Ford replacement parts.
Parts other than Ford, Motorcraft or Ford-authorized remanufactured
parts that are used for maintenance replacement or for the service of
components affecting emission control must be equivalent to genuine
Ford Motor Company parts in performance and durability. It is the
owner's responsibility to determine the equivalency of such parts. Please
consult your Warranty Guide for complete warranty information.
Non Ford-approved chemicals or additives are not required for factory
recommended maintenance. In fact, Ford Motor Company recommends
against the use of such additive products unless specifically
recommended by Ford for a particular application.
Oils, fluids and flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic of
the chemical compound and may not necessarily demonstrate that a fluid
needs to be changed. Oils and fluids identified in this guide should be
changed at the specified interval or in conjunction with a repair. Flushing
is a viable way to change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems during
scheduled maintenance and should only be done using the same fluid
required to finish the maintenance procedure, or a Ford-approved
flushing chemical.
Genuine Ford parts and service
When planning your maintenance services, consider your dealership for
all your vehicle's needs.
There are a lot of reasons why your dealership is a great way to help
keep your vehicle running great.
Convenience
To make your service visit even more convenient, in many cases, you'll
find extended evening hours and Saturday hours. How's that for quality
service?
