Everyone knows getting regular oil changes is essential for your vehicle's health, but many don't know all the reasons why. When you get an oil change at a Ford dealer, you'll gain peace of mind knowing that your car or truck is receiving critical maintenance from experienced professionals. Ford Dealer Oil Change Benefits Convenience Getting your oil changed at the dealership is far more convenient than doing it yourself. It takes less time, and you don't have to worry about spilling oil in the garage or driveway. Enhanced Fuel Economy Changing your engine oil at the recommended intervals ensures helps maintain your fuel economy. Eventually, the extra money you'll spend on fuel will exceed the cost of changing the oil. more Efficient Engine Operation Keeping clean oil at the right level in your engine protects its efficiency. Over time, sludge and buildup in oil cause your engine to work harder than it needs to produce the same output. Improved Engine Longevity Clean, debris-free oil also enhances friction between your engine's internal components. This increases wear and tear inside your engine, leading to breakdowns. Maintain Proper Emissions An additional benefit of keeping your engine running efficiently is that it maintains correct emissions levels. Not only will you save time when doing your emissions checks, but you'll also avoid fines for noncompliance. Minimize Environmental Impact The environmental impact of fossil fuel consumption is well documented. By completing regular oil changes and keeping your emissions levels in check, you avoid unnecessarily increasing your carbon footprint, which benefits everyone on the planet. Ensure Proper Engine Temperature Old engine oil full of debris increases the high levels of heat your engine already produces. Regular oil changes keep your engine's internal components properly lubricated and prevent a range of major issues, such as blown head gaskets and warped pistons. When to Change Your Oil The ideal time to change your oil depends on your vehicle's engine and the mileage it has accumulated since its last oil change. However, even if you don't drive the vehicle after changing its oil, you'll still want to change it eventually. Over time, old oil can start to gel up, making it difficult to lubricate all of the engine components, leading to overheating and additional wear and tear. Newer ​Ford models have an Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor that ​makes it easy to track when you need to change your oil. Additionally, the scheduled maintenance section of your Ford's owner's manual ​will outline how often you need to change your oil and the best type for your engine. If you decide to change your oil yourself, you'll need to make sure you choose the right type of oil, set aside time to change it, and find somewhere to dispose of the used oil safely. If that doesn't sound like a fun way to spend your Saturday, stop by Mike Fitzpatrick Ford in Newnan, GA and let the friendly technicians in our service department handle it for you.

When it detects an imminent collision, it sends you an alert to give you time to respond and prevent the crash. When you don't have time to prevent the crash, your Explorer intervenes and hits the brakes in an attempt to mitigate the potential collision. 5. Lane Keeping System Sometimes distractions make it difficult to notice when you're drifting close to the edge of your lane. Your car always notices, so it'll send you an alert when you're drifting. If you end up drifting toward the edge of your lane several times in a row, then the system will light up an icon of a coffee cup on your dashboard. This symbol means it's time to take a break to avoid drowsy driving. 6. Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control Cruise control adjusts your speed in accordance with the flow of traffic, letting you keep a safe distance from the car ahead and relax a little. It adjusts your speed as needed, even bringing your car to a stop when required. The system also helps keep you centred in your lane, and it can recognise speed signs to avoid going over the speed limit.

Nowadays, you don't have to keep track of mileage-based oil replacement intervals. You will receive a message on the information display when your vehicle needs new oil.
