Ford vehicles are popular on American roads due to their performance and durability. But did you know you can make your vehicle last longer by getting some services from your Ford dealership? Here are some ways they can help. Oil Changing Oil changes are vital to giving your Ford's engine a new lease of life. We fill the motor with the best lubricant to keep the internal parts clean and running smoothly for a long time. Additionally, we accompany this with free multi-point inspection. Our certified Ford technicians will check all the critical parts to ensure your vehicle is given a clean bill of health. Filter Changing Apart from lubricating, oil also cleans the engine. All the debris is trapped in the oil filter, which clogs over time. If this component is not replaced in due time, the particles will head back to the engine, causing wear and tear. We do oil filter replacements to maximize motor durability. Another critical component we change is the air filter, which traps dust and particles from the engine intake. If these are breathed in, your Ford will have a lower power output and fuel efficiency. As a result, the motor will have to overwork to compensate for the reduced performance, which will reduce its durability. Fluid Level Checks and Flush Outs Engine oil is just one of the fluids that require level checking or flushing. Others that are critical to improving your car's durability are: Coolant Brake fluid Transmission fluid Power steering fluid Tire Repairs and Replacements Tire treads give a good grip on the road, which keeps you and your vehicle from getting into accidents. We check the tires and do replacements to ensure you drive safely. Additionally, you can search the recommended tires by vehicle or size on our website to get a new set. Another service we do relating to tires is rotation. Treads do not wear evenly on the four sides, which means some will last for a shorter period. Tire rotation takes care of this by ensuring even wear. Brake Repair Brake service/repair entails checking and tuning the brake pads and linings. You should bring your car for this service if you spot the following issues when braking: Squeaking sounds Leaking brake fluid Pedal pulsing or vibration Increased stopping distance Vehicle vibrations Cooling System and Radiator Repair If you notice the temperature gauge on the dashboard going towards the red side, something might be wrong with the cooling system. Prolonged high-temperature levels can lead to engine damage, so you should bring the vehicle to us as soon as possible. Battery Service A battery is responsible for providing power to start the vehicle and run all electrical systems. We do battery servicing to keep it functioning effectively for as long as possible. The process mainly involves scrubbing corrosion from the terminals. As you can see, we have several ways to maximize your vehicle's durability. Visit Jack Madden Ford to get your car examined as soon as possible. Photo courtesy of Ford

We know getting your car serviced isn't your favorite thing to do. And when you're in need of more than just a minor repair, the experience can be downright stressful. That's why dealers like Jack Madden Ford work hard to create a Ford repair experience that provides you with the highest quality and the least worry. With so much to offer, why go anywhere else when deciding where to take your Ford for repair? more We're the Experts It's simple enough – Ford service technicians are experts on Ford vehicles. All Ford service technicians are specially trained in Ford vehicle repair. We participate in ongoing training that ensures we're on top of any technical issues, new model specifics, and new features. What's more, if there have been any recalls or technical service bulletins posted for your Ford model, we know. We'll make sure any outstanding issues are addressed when you visit, even if you don't bring it to our attention first. Quality Parts When you bring your vehicle to a Ford dealer for repair, you're sure to get genuine Ford parts backed by the manufacturer. That means quality is guaranteed. Most genuine Ford parts have a one-year warranty. With aftermarket parts, you can't always be certain you're getting quality goods. At a Ford dealer's repair shop, you'll also get the relief of knowing that the part you need is probably already in stock. So you don't have to wait until the part comes in to start the repair. Your Warranty May Cover Costs If your vehicle is still under the original or an extended warranty, the repair cost may be covered. A basic original warranty is typically good for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. You might also get a warranty on any repair made at a Ford service center. Either way, with Ford's national network of service centers, your warranty is good anywhere your vehicle might need it. Convenience Our larger shop size makes it more likely that you'll be able to get your vehicle in and out in a timely fashion. And Ford service centers offer clean, comfortable accommodations should you choose to wait for your vehicle's service to be completed. Everything in One Place When you consistently visit the service center at a Ford dealership, all vehicle information is in one place. And you can take advantage of Ford Pass,™ a smartphone app that charts your vehicle's maintenance information. You can get vehicle alerts, schedule a repair, and even earn complimentary maintenance services. You've put your trust in us with the purchase of your Ford vehicle. We return that trust by offering the highest quality service, whether you're due for an oil change or are having engine trouble. Jack Madden Ford has helped Boston-area residents maintain their vehicles for more than 60 years. Schedule your repair or maintenance at Jack Madden Ford's state-of-the-art service center.

With rear-wheel drive, the extended-range pack takes you up to 300 miles. In contrast, AWD models with this battery pack can travel up to 270 miles. The Mach-E's power output ranges from 260 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque for rear-wheel-drive Select models to 480 horsepower and 600 pound-feet for the GT. The GT Performance Edition takes it up a notch with 634 pound-feet of torque and 0-60 mph time of just 3.5 seconds. State-of-the-Art Technology Three selectable driving modes — Whisper, Engage, and Unbridled — enhance your driving experience.
