Ford strongly recommends the use of genuine Ford replacement parts.

Parts other than Ford, Motorcraft威 or Ford-authorized remanufactured

parts that are used for maintenance replacement or for the service of

components affecting emission control must be equivalent to genuine

Ford Motor Company parts in performance and durability. It is the

owner’s responsibility to determine the equivalency of such parts. Please

consult your Warranty Guide for complete warranty information.

Chemicals or additives not approved by Ford are not required for factory

recommended maintenance. In fact, Ford Motor Company recommends

against the use of such additive products unless specifically

recommended by Ford for a particular application.

Oils, fluids and flushing

In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic

and, by itself, does not necessarily indicate a concern or that the fluid

needs to be changed. However, discolored fluids that also show signs of

overheating and/or foreign material contamination should be inspected

immediately by a qualified expert such as the factory-trained technicians

at your dealership. Your vehicle’s oils and fluids should be changed at the

specified intervals or in conjunction with a repair. Flushing is a viable

way to change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems during scheduled

maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only with new fluid

that is the same as that required to fill and operate the system, or using

a Ford-approved flushing chemical.

Genuine Ford parts and service

When planning your maintenance services, consider your dealership for

all your vehicle’s needs.

There are a lot of reasons why visiting your dealership for all your

service needs is a great way to help keep your vehicle running great.

Convenience

Many dealerships have extended evening and Saturday hours to make

your service visit more convenient. How’s that for quality service?

Factory-trained technicians

Service technicians participate in extensive factory-sponsored

certification training to help them become experts on the operation of

your vehicle. Ask your dealership about the training and certification

their technicians have received.
