8. For optimal engine performance and maximized fuel economy, check engine belts, hoses, and the fuel filter, and make sure they are replaced as stated in the owner's manual.

When To Replace Your Vehicle's Filters

Keep your vehicle performing at its best by replacing dirty filters.

BRIGHTON, Mich.- We're always urging you to stay up to date on your vehicle's routine maintenance, and The Works Package is a great option to keep your vehicle in great shape. But, you may wonder When To Replace Your Vehicle's Filters, and for that matter, which filters need to be replaced. Well, your Genesee County Ford Dealer has everything you need to know about When To Replace Your Vehicle's Filters.

First off, your vehicle's filters are not like your home's filters; they don't need to be replaced with the changing seasons. Your vehicle's filters should be replaced instead based on usage. Therefore, if you use your car more, you will need to replace your vehicle's filters more often.

Now, there are three filters in your vehicle that you should be aware of: the engine, cabin, and fuel filters. The engine filter keeps your engine breathing and free of dirt and other particles. Neglecting your engine filter can cause it to get clogged and damage sensors, therefore turning on the Check Engine Light. The cabin air filter keeps the air you breathe inside your vehicle free of particulates and should be checked on a regular basis. Lastly, the fuel filter should be checked and replaced after your hit mileage milestones like 30,000 miles or for some vehicles 50,000 miles.

As with all of your vehicle's maintenance needs, you can check your owners manual for more information on When To Replace Your Vehicle's Filters. But, like we said, The Works Package is a great option to help maintain your vehicle. You can save on all of your routine maintenance at Brighton Ford with our Service Coupons.

5 Car Care Tips For Teens

BRIGHTON, Mich.- Turning sixteen and getting your drivers license is a dream come true! But getting behind the wheel also brings responsibility to take care of your vehicle so that it will keep you safe on the road. It's important to remember that scheduled and preventative maintenance are important for your safety. So, before you hit the road, review these 5 Car Care Tips For Teens from your Metro Detroit Ford Dealer!

1. Be aware of your vehicle's maintenance schedule - Your owner's manual outlines all of the recommended maintenance for your vehicle, and it's important to stick to this schedule to take care of your car and avoid bigger repairs in the long run.

2. Take care of your tires - Making sure that your tires are always properly inflated can actually help you save on fuel by improving gas mileage by 3.3%, while also extending the life of your tires. But, taking care of your tires also prevents significant tire damage from road conditions like potholes.

3. Pay attention to warning lights - Do not ignore your vehicle's warning lights on the dashboard! These warning lights notify you when something is wrong with your vehicle, and ignoring them can cause significant damage to your vehicle. Check out our blog post on Vehicle Warning Lights - Meanings & Actions to learn more.

4. Don't run on E - The way engines are built today, they rely on gas to cool and lubricate the engine's components. Which means that if you're always running on fumes, your car could easily break down, causing hundreds of dollars in repairs. So, try to always keep your gas tank above 1/4 tank.

5. Windshield wiper care - Always make sure that your windshield wipers are in tip-top shape so that when you need them most, they aren't broken or streaking and obstructing your view. Windshield wipers are easy to clean or replace at home. Learn How To Clean Your Windshield Wipers & Extend Their Life.
