With colder weather arriving, the team at Dunning Ford wants to remind you that it's a good time to schedule winter maintenance if you haven't taken care of it already. We know life can be hectic, particularly as the holidays approach. It's easy to let everyday tasks like vehicle service fall by the wayside. However, keeping up with your car, truck, or SUV needs can ensure safer travels on winter roads.
Battery Testing
Freezing temperatures are hard on your car's batteries. Let us run a diagnostic test to make sure yours is powered up sufficiently for the season.
Coolant Check
Your engine needs the proper ratio of antifreeze to water to keep corrosion and freezing at bay. Our mechanics can check the levels and make adjustments as necessary so your Ford vehicle runs optimally all winter long.
Oil Change
It's also a good idea to check the oil and filter before winter creeps in. If your oil is low or dirty, cold temperatures will only make things worse, causing your engine to perform sluggishly or even overheat. Our mechanics will change your oil and equip it with the correct grade of oil.
Brake Inspection
Much of winter service prep is about safety. With the potential for slippery and snowy roads ahead, you want to be sure your brakes are in the best condition possible so they can provide the stopping power you need. If needed, we'll swap your degraded brake pads.
Tire Service
Tires are also essential to keeping you and your passengers safe. We can replace tires with winter tires, check the air pressure or perform a tire rotation to safely increase your ability to travel on snowy and icy roads.
