Oil Change

This is essential to maintaining engine performance and longevity — think of it as the lifeblood of your vehicle. An oil change will increase gas mileage and keep your engine clean and lubricated. We will use up to 5 quarts of Motorcraft® Premium Synthetic Blend Motor Oil to keep your vehicle in shape.

Tire Rotation and Alignment

A four-wheel tire rotation is recommended every 5,000 miles to increase the lifespan of the tires. With a four-wheel alignment, you keep your tires in great condition by ensuring they are angled to hit the road correctly for a smoother ride and a greater fuel economy.

Replace Your Windshield Wipers

With Motorcraft Premium Flare wiper blades, the blade profile stays firmly on the windshield for quiet operation. The steel mono-beam construction provides equal pressure on the blade, increasing the efficiency.

Battery Inspection

Make sure that your battery is ready to work hard for you with an inspection of the battery, cables, and terminals. Check to see it has a full charge for peak performance.

Cooling System Fluid Replacement

A power fluid flush of the cooling system includes the engine block, heater core, control valve radiator, lines, and hoses.

Brake Service

Brakes that are deteriorating can be dangerous and costly. Any squeaking or grinding can be a sure sign that it's time for an inspection. We can check them for you at our service center.
