The Ford service you require all depends on how many miles are currently on the odometer, and ranges from regular oil changes to the replacement of spark plugs.

What Ford Service Does My Vehicle Require Next?

Every 7,500 to 10,000 miles (or whatever mileage your owner’s manual indicates), Irmo-area drivers should carry out oil changes, filter replacements, and tire rotations. In addition to these Ford services, it’s a good idea to get a multi-point inspection, have unsealed joints lubricated, and check the braking and parking brake systems, the exhaust system, and the cooling system.

Barring any major issues, these services are typically all you need to worry about when it comes to routine maintenance on your Ford. That is, until your vehicle hits the 100,000-mile mark on the odometer. What happens then? Well, it’s important to continue with the aforementioned services at regular intervals, but make sure to complete the following services at the Jim Hudson Ford Service Department, too:

100,000 Miles
- Replace spark plugs
120,000 Miles
- Replace engine air filter
140,000 Miles
- Inspect accessory drive belts
150,000 Miles
