Important Ford Service for Off-Road Vehicles

April 5th, 2021 by

If you want to keep your adventures going in your rugged Ford SUV or pickup truck, you’ll want to keep up with regular Ford service by visiting a certified Ford service center. Thankfully, you can count on our team here at Woodhouse Ford of Omaha to keep your Ford vehicle ready for adventure. Here are some of the most important services to keep up with for off-roading.

Oil Changes

While we would recommend every car owner bring their car to our Ford service center on a regular basis, it’s even more important for vehicles with four-wheel drive that take on off-road terrain.

When vehicles are in a low gear and the wheels are forced to deliver a lot of torque, it puts more stress on the engine. This makes it more important for the engine to have adequate lubrication, which makes getting oil changes on time extra important.

Air Filter Changes

If you are taking your pickup truck or SUV out on the trails often, you’re subjecting your air filters to more debris and dirt. Because of this, it’s especially important for off-roading vehicles to have regular air filter checks and to replace their air filters when they get dirty.

Brake Checks

When your vehicle is slowly and carefully traversing rough terrain, your brakes will be hard at work helping to keep you in control. If you want to ensure your brakes are in good condition to provide the stopping power you need, you will want to schedule brake checks often.

Tire Service

Off-roading SUVs and pickup trucks rely on good traction to keep you going on muddy surfaces and rocky trails. If you want to keep your tires in reliable condition for rugged off-road performance, be sure to visit our service center to have the tires properly filled, the tread depth checked, and to look for any signs of leaks.
