  • Clean and Detail: Chances are your Ford became grimy during the winter from road salt, mud, and other debris. Visit us in the Virginia Beach area so that we can wash the exterior and interior of your car and get it looking and feeling like brand new!
  • Replace Air Filters: Winter grime can also clog up your engine air filter and cabin air filter. Be sure to get them checked and replaced if they are dirty or clogged.
  • Check Fluid Levels: There are several fluids that your Ford needs to run smoothly and safely. Visit us near Hampton so that we can check your engine oil, windshield washer fluid, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and coolant levels and top them off it needed.
  • Check Tires: Cold weather can put stress on your car’s tires. Visit us in the Suffolk area so that we can check your tire tread depth, inflation pressure, and wear patterns. Consider switching over to summer tires for improved traction during warm weather.
  • Test Battery: Cold weather can also put a strain on your car’s battery, so it’s integral that you ensure that yours is properly holding a charge and replace it if needed.
