Ford Service Center Near Hempstead

Ford makes some of the most powerful and impressive cars, trucks, and SUVs on the road, but even the most beautifully engineered piece of machinery requires maintenance. We know that proper service for your vehicle might not be the most exciting part of owning and enjoying it, but it is vital to ensure your Ford will keep treating you well for many years to come. This is why we offer certified Ford service, parts, and maintenance here at Premier Ford Inc. to ensure your vehicle stays in the best shape possible. If you are looking for a Ford service center near Hempstead, then you are in the right place: we will take fantastic care of your vehicle, provide all of the services it needs, and ensure it is in great shape so you can continue to get the most from it for a long time. Let's take a look at some of the important types of service you should have in mind for your Ford and how we can help.

Routine Service and Maintenance for Your Ford 

All of us rely on our vehicles every day, counting on them to be there when we need them and to get us where we need to go. In order for your Ford to take care of you for a long time, it is important that you take care of it, which means proper service and maintenance. Some of this stuff should be done every month, and it is quite simple to do yourself, such as checking your engine oil level, giving your tires a good look, and checking to make sure your lights are working. Other types of service are more complicated, and you are best off letting our team of technicians and service professionals handle it; these tasks include:

• Oil Changes - Few types of service are as important, yet also as simple, as having your oil changed on a regular basis. If you have a new Ford, then it will likely even tell you when it is time for an oil change; otherwise, we are happy to help you figure out a service schedule and keep your engine in great shape.
• Battery Inspections - The battery in your vehicle will typically last a long time, but routine inspections can help extend that even further. We can check the condition of your car's battery and connections, cleaning them as needed to help with the longevity of your vehicle and its battery. And when the time comes, we can replace your battery so you never find yourself stranded around Hempstead when you go to start your car.
• Coolant and Fluid Changes - Although your engine oil is crucial, it is not the only important fluid for your vehicle. We can also check your engine's coolant levels, your brake and transmission fluids, and anything else to ensure they are all in good shape. If we find any leaks or that your fluids need to be replaced, then we can handle that for you.
• Brake Inspections - Few parts of your vehicle are as important as your brakes, which you rely on to slow and stop your car while you drive. We can easily check your brakes while handling other services to ensure they are still in good shape and replace them when the time comes so you remain in safe control of your vehicle.
• Tire Care - Routine tire rotations are one of the best ways to help extend the life of your car's tires and ensure you have a great drive every day. We can rotate your tires properly as needed; when they finally wear down, then we can replace them for you and have you back on the road right away.
• Drive Belt Inspections - Highly durable belts send power from one part of your vehicle to another. Our certified experts can check these belts to see if they are wearing down and replace them when the time comes to avoid an unexpected problem down the road.
• Suspension Work - Your vehicle's suspension helps keep you comfortable while on the road and makes steering and control easier. We can check your suspension on a regular basis and make adjustments to it as needed so that driving around Hempstead is easier and more relaxing for you.

This is only a small example of the important services we can provide for your Ford truck, car, or SUV. By taking care of this maintenance on a routine basis, you ensure your vehicle runs as well as possible, and you can get ahead of major problems down the road. It is easier and less expensive to catch a minor issue and have it fixed right now than to ignore it and have it become a serious issue in a few months. Nothing is worse than having to replace an entire engine because something as simple as an oil change was not performed. But how often should you do these things?

Understanding Your Ford Service Schedule

When designing and building your vehicle, Ford's engineers determined the best schedule for how often you should have service and maintenance performed. You can view this schedule by going to Ford's website and entering the VIN for your model, but there are also certain basics that you should keep in mind. For starters, about every six months, Ford suggests that you have us check your battery and clean its connections as needed, check the condition of your vehicle's body and doors, and check your engine coolant.

In addition to these simple types of service, we should also check your parking brake to ensure it is working properly, inspect your seatbelts, diagnose any warning lights on your dashboard, and inspect your wiper blades to replace them if needed. Beyond these routine tasks, Ford also suggests changing your engine oil at least once a year, depending on your driving habits. A multi-point inspection, including your vehicle's drive belts, battery, air filters, tires, and more, should also be conducted on a routine basis. All of these tasks can seem like a lot to deal with, but our experts will handle them for you quickly and have you back on the road to Hempstead in no time.

High-Quality Ford Parts and Accessories

Getting proper service for your vehicle is important, but it is just as important that the right parts and accessories are used for your car, truck, or SUV. Here at Premier Ford Inc., we use genuine Ford parts whenever possible while working on your vehicle. With original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacements, you know that the parts being used are those approved by Ford's engineers and that they will work perfectly with your vehicle. You also have the confidence of knowing that these OEM parts will not interfere with the proper performance of your ride in any way and that your vehicle's warranty is protected. All of this ensures that your Ford keeps running beautifully so you can drive with complete peace of mind. Plus, if you are interested in some kind of aftermarket upgrade or modification to your vehicle, then we can help you explore different options and even install accessories for you.

Here to Keep Hempstead Drivers on the Road

We know that vehicle maintenance is something that most people do not look forward to-just like most of us do not look forward to a teeth cleaning or yearly physical. But this kind of service helps you get the most out of your car and avoid much bigger problems. If you take care of your Ford, then it will take care of you; it is much easier to spend an hour or two on a weekend relaxing in our comfortable customer lounge while we handle an oil change and inspect your vehicle rather than being without a car for a couple of weeks while major repairs are done. That is the difference that trusting your vehicle service to the right people can make. Schedule your next service appointment with us online today, or give us a call with any questions you have so we can keep your Ford running beautifully.
