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 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.

Owner Checks and Services

Certain basic maintenance checks and

inspections should be performed every

month or at six month intervals.

Check Every Month

• Engine oil level.

• Function of all interior and exterior

lights.

• Tires (including spare) for wear and

proper pressure.

• Windshield washer fluid level.

Check Every Six Months

• Battery connections. Clean if

necessary.

• Body and door drain holes for

obstructions. Clean if necessary.

• Cooling system fluid level and coolant

strength.

• Door weatherstrips for wear. Lubricate

if necessary.

• Hinges, latches and outside locks for

proper operation. Lubricate if

necessary.

• Parking brake for proper operation.

• Safety belts and seat latches for wear

and function.

• Safety warning lamps (brake, ABS,

airbag and safety belt) for operation.

• Washer spray and wiper operation.

Clean or replace blades as necessary.

Check Every 12 Months (Fusion Energi

Inspect the engine oil filter for signs of

damage such as rust, paint blistering,

scratches or dents. If any of these

conditions are present, replace the filter.

Normal Scheduled Maintenance and

Multi-point Inspection

In order to keep your vehicle running right,

it is important to have the systems on your

vehicle checked regularly. This can help

identify potential issues and prevent major

problems. We recommend the following

multi-point inspection be performed at

every scheduled maintenance interval to

help ensure your vehicle keeps running

great.
