Suggested Maintenance For A Ford F-150 At Schmit Bros!
You bought your new Ford F-150 for a reason. Not only is it one of the most dependable trucks available on the market, but it’s also one of the best looking. So it goes without saying that you want to keep it running just like the day you drove it off the lot. Ford makes this easy by providing a recommended maintenance schedule. A step by step guide with recommendations and milestones to ensure your Ford F-150 stays on the road for many years to come.
Ford F-150 Maintenance Tasks
When it comes to maintaining your F-150 truck there are few vital maintenance tasks that are crucial, especially when it comes to the driving conditions in Wisconsin.- Oil changes – Should be completed every 5,000 miles.
- Tire wear – Check the tread and rotate with oil changes. Have an alignment every 10,000 miles.
- Washer fluid – Check it when you stop for gas and top off if low.
- Transmission fluid – Should be swapped out every 60,000 miles. This will keep your transmission lubricated and cool.
- Engine coolant – Swap out every 75,000 miles. Keeps your engine running cool, especially during the hot Wisconsin summer.
- Brake fluid – Check every 30,000 miles.
- Power steering fluid – Check it once a month and top off when low. Your power steering pump will start to make a whining noise when you turn your steering wheel if the fluid gets too low.
In addition to keeping up with your regular oil changes, the recommended maintenance and inspection schedule occurs at every 10,000-mile interval. The difference in getting 100,000 miles and 200,000 plus miles out of your vehicle is staying on top of the maintenance.
