Your Ford is an excellent example of automotive design and manufacturing. To keep your car in great working condition, your Ford requires regular service and maintenance. In Lowell, MI, your Ford dealership has a huge range of services to ensure your car runs perfectly. These are just a few of the services we have available.
Brake Pad Replacement
Good brake pads are essential for your braking system to work effectively. Brake pads fit inside the brake calipers and generate friction against the wheel rotors when you hit the brakes. This friction brings your car to a stop. The pads have a special friction material covering that produces the required friction. This covering will slowly wear off.
The friction material wears a little each time you use the brakes. Brake pads should be replaced every 30,000 to 50,000 miles. Your car manual will give the exact mileage for your pad replacement. As the pads become thinner, your braking system will become slightly less efficient. Once the pads reach 1/4″ thick, it’s time to change them. We can easily replace your pads while you enjoy a cup of our delicious coffee here at your go-to car dealer in Lowell, MI.
Battery Replacement
A modern car battery is more reliable and longer lasting than ever before. It will, however, eventually wear out and will need replacement. The average life of a battery is three to five years. This lifespan is affected by driving conditions, driving habits, and weather conditions. The battery will fail due to its internal chemical reactions.
Fortunately, a battery always shows signs that it’s failing. You may notice dim interior lights or dash lights before you switch on your car. This is a sign that your battery is wearing out. Starting difficulties are another sign that your battery will need replacement soon. Zeigler Ford of Lowell can test your battery with our battery tester and install a new one if it fails.
Headlight Replacement
When you’re driving at night or in any other low visibility conditions, you need good headlights. Under these conditions, you need to both see and be seen, to keep you and other road users safe. The life of a bulb varies between 500 hours and 30,000 hours, depending on the type of bulb you have. Bulbs can also fail due to battery or alternator problems, wiring issues, or corrosion if water gets into the bulb socket.
Dim or flickering bulbs are usually a sign that it’s time to replace them. Our technicians can test the bulbs and install your choice of replacement bulbs if needed.
