Maintenance Tips

Simple Ways to Keep Your Ford in Top Shape

Regular maintenance keeps your Ford running smoothly and helps prevent costly repairs down the road. Our team at Nelson Ford recommends these simple tips to help you stay ahead of the curve:

Check Your Oil Regularly: Monitor oil levels and schedule changes every 8,000–10,000 km, or as recommended.
Rotate Tires & Check Pressure: Rotate every 10,000 km and check tire pressure monthly for safety and efficiency.
Replace Filters: Air and cabin filters keep your engine and interior clean — swap them annually.
Watch for Brake Signs: Squealing or vibration when braking means it’s time for inspection.
Seasonal Checks: Before winter or long trips, schedule a full inspection for fluids, wipers, and battery life.

Your Ford is built to last — and regular maintenance helps ensure it performs like new.
