If you have a Ford vehicle, there's no need to get your car or truck serviced at multiple places, taking up your valuable time and probably your money as well. Most of the services you need for your car or truck can be received right at your Ford dealer. It's convenient, you know you'll get the right parts, and everything will be done by factory trained technicians. more Oil Changes Most people already know that dealerships offer oil changes, but many times, drivers believe this service will be much more inconvenient and expensive than having it done by a non-dealer mechanic. This couldn't be further from the truth. If you make an appointment at your Ford service center, your oil change won't take long at all, and it costs about the same as it would anywhere else. Plus, you'll get the expertise of a Ford certified technician. In addition to an oil change, all Ford service centers will also rotate your tires, check your brakes, check your tire pressure, inspect various parts of your engine and chassis, top off your fluids (such as your windshield wiper fluid), test your battery, check your air filter, and check hoses and belts. If you need any other services after your vehicle is inspected, you will be given the opportunity to have them done then or to make a separate appointment. Battery Replacement All batteries eventually run down, and vehicle batteries are no exception. You can usually get about five years from a car battery, but the actual battery life will depend on how much you drive and weather conditions. At the service center, your battery will be tested with a computerized battery testing system that will determine if you need to have your battery replaced. If you do, a trained technician will quickly swap out your old battery with a brand new. Wiper Blade Replacement When windshield wiper blades go bad, it can be a dangerous situation because when you can't see out your windshield, you can't see the road, objects, or people. Fortunately, you don't have to wait to get new blades because your Ford service center can easily change them out for you. You'll get the exact blades recommended for your Ford vehicle and you'll be back on the road with clear vision in no time at all. Tire Replacement Your vehicle's tires are actually the only parts of your vehicle that actually make contact with the road. For that reason, you need to keep them in the best condition possible. When you notice that your tire tread is wearing down, it's time to get your tires replaced, which is another service you can find at your dealership. All major tire brands like Goodyear, Bridgestone, Firestone, Dunlop, Michelin, and more are sold at Ford service centers. No one really enjoys taking their vehicles in for service, but it's something we have to do to make sure our cars and trucks operate as safely and efficiently as possible. Luckily, you can get many services done right at your dealership, making it a convenient place for one-stop service.

The new 2020 Ford Escape comes as a fully redesigned compact crossover SUV thanks to its raft of smart features, four powertrains, and five trim levels. With improved comfort, extra technology, and more passenger space, Ford pulled out all the stops to create a pleasantly rounded fourth-generation Escape. The styling and performance are built on Ford's new modular architecture, and it's the first car riding on it in the US market. more 1. New Redesign The new Escape went through a nearly complete overhaul in terms of design. Though its purpose as a reliable compact SUV with off-road capabilities has not changed, Ford shakes things up with an excellent powertrain and impressive styling. All dimensions are favorably suited for improved utility and driving dynamics. It looks lower, longer, and wider than the preceded Escape but still maintains the light off-roading ruggedness and excellent outward visibility. 2. A Revamped Interior Ford brings a new feel to the interior for 2020 with great detailing and fancy optional technology. The 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, which offers a unique visual representation for each drive mode, helps set Ford apart from the rivals. Unfolding from the top of the dashboard is a 6-inch head-up display that puts everything directly in the driver's line of sight for improved safety. The main touchscreen is prominently displayed and super responsive to reduce distraction and delays. 3. Multiple Trim Levels Drivers are not having an easy time picking their players. With five trims levels (S, SE, hybrid-only SE Sport, SEL, and Titanium) and four powertrains--a plug-in hybrid, a hybrid, and two gasoline engines--the new Ford meets most of the drivers' preferences. The crossover comes equipped with a 1.5-liter inline-three engine for base models pegged at 181 horsepower and 190 ft of torque. Opting for a more compelling upgrade 2.0-liter inline-four engine in upper trims boosts the overall refinement that Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V drivers should envy. 4. Extremely Spacious Inside The 2020 Escape is surprisingly roomy inside: a significant upgrade from outgoing models. Six-footers can fit comfortably at the back, leaving enough legroom for another 6-footer sitting at the front. The vehicle further offers a maximum cargo space of 65.4 cubic feet, the segment's average. 5. Improved Safety Features With a five-star overall rating by the NHTSA, the 2020 Escape leaves something to be admired by many drivers. It comes with automatic high-beam headlights, blind-spot monitors, active lane control, and automatic emergency braking. The forward-collision warning system can mitigate accidents at speeds as high as 75 mph. In conclusion, the new Ford Escape brings real value to the already-competitive subcompact crossover segment. It's exactly what any driver would expect of a small SUV, including solid performance, smart technology features, and roomy interior. Visit Jack Madden Ford to kickstart your journey to owning the new Ford Escape. We will provide you with ranging selections of cars and help you in choose the ideal Ford vehicle to suit all your needs.
