What Every Ford Vehicle Owner Should Know!

If you drive a Ford, you count on it every day for family life, work, and everything in between! At Frank’s Servicenter, we work on a lot of Fords, and we know how to keep them reliable, safe, and running smoothly for the long haul.

Here’s what we think every Ford owner should keep in mind:

1. Know What to Watch For

Some of the most common Ford issues we catch early for our customers include:

  • Transmission Shudder or Hard Shifting – Often between 60k–100k miles.

  • Check Engine Lights – Usually sensor or Fuel-related, and worth checking ASAP.

  • Brake Wear – Especially important on larger vehicles like the Explorer.

  • Cooling System Problems – Summer heat can push your system to the limit.

2. Stick to These Key Maintenance Intervals

For most late-model Fords like the Explorer, we recommend:

  • Oil changes every 6,000 miles (we use full synthetic).

  • Transmission Service around 40k–60k miles.

  • Brake, Battery, and Belt Checks twice a year. Quick, easy, and worth it.

3. Why Trust Frank’s With Your Ford

We get it…finding a trustworthy auto shop isn’t easy. That’s why we focus on clear communication, honest recommendations, and helping you plan ahead so you’re not hit with surprise expenses. Our customers stick with us because we earn their trust, one service at a time.
