Is My Car Too Old for a Road Trip?

If you're planning on using your well-loved Ford Explorer, Mustang or Escape for a road trip but aren’t quite sure if it's OK to take on a long journey, know that as long as you've been keeping up with your Ford model's regular service intervals, it's more than likely fine to take. However, before you and your loved ones tackle the road ahead, we recommend you schedule Ford service with us first. This way, we can handle any Ford F-150 repairs or Bronco Sport maintenance such as: 

  • Full conventional or synthetic oil change
  • Inspect belts and hoses
  • Replace engine or cabin air filter
  • Top off fluids
  • Battery test and/or replacement
  • Fresh windshield wiper blades
  • Replace burnt out lights
  • Check tire tread
