Service Details
If any warning lights display on your Ford vehicle, you should head to an auto repair shop as soon as possible (at least within the next 600 miles). Generally, your motor oil and filter must be changed at least once a year, which may be the culprit. However, if you’re driving in optimal conditions, your vehicle might not indicate the need for vehicle service for more than a year. At Hinsdale Automotive, our trained technicians can accurately determine when your Ford needs maintenance, and not before or after it’s necessary.
No one wants to deal with electrical issues in their car, yet they happen. If you notice these issues with your Ford vehicle, it is very common. Some owners have reported issues with the electrical system, such as the battery not holding a charge or the alternator failing. Other common issues are faulty sensors, malfunctioning power windows, and problems with the audio system.
While it doesn’t directly cause harm to the car’s performance, a malfunctioning air conditioning system can create a miserable driving experience in extremely hot or cold weather. Additionally, Ford car problems with the exhaust system, like holes in the exhaust or muffler, can also negatively affect the driving experience.
Brake Pad Repairs in Ford
The brake pads on your Ford vehicle are equipped with wear indicators that will produce a squealing noise when the brakes are almost worn out. The noise will start when about 2 mm of brake pad friction remains, indicating brake pads must be replaced. If you are hearing this noise, your brake pads should be replaced as soon as possible. (The noise may be present even when you’re not applying the brake pedal.) At Hinsdale Automotive, we can help with all your Ford service needs.
