Here is a quick and easy way to clear frost off your windshield, best part is you probably already have the ingredients at home:
With the cold temperatures in full effect here in Michigan, we all know how frustrating it can be to wait for your windshield to defrost when you get in your car in the morning. Nothing wastes your crucial time like sitting and waiting for your defroster to warm up your windshield. With this simple solution of water and rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle, you can save your precious time with a few sprays. You can even leave the spray bottle in your truck, car or SUV and not have to worry about it freezing because the freezing point for rubbing alcohol is 128 degrees below freezing.
If this spray bottle solution isn’t what you were looking for, you could have the Brighton Ford Service Department install a remote starter to keep your SUV, truck or car warm and ready to go when you are. Give us a call to schedule a drop off time or click here to schedule it online.

Ford Brings Back Ranger, Bronco
*picture from Detroit News
The Ranger will come back to North America in 2019, and the Bronco will be brought back in 2020 and sell globally.
Both will be produced at the Michigan Assembly Plant.
“We’ve heard our customers loud and clear. They want a new generation of vehicles that are incredibly capable, yet fun to drive,” said Joe Hinrichs, Ford’s president of The Americas. “Ranger is for truck buyers who want an affordable, functional, rugged and maneuverable pickup that’s Built Ford Tough. Bronco will be a no-compromise midsize 4x4 utility for thrill seekers who want to venture way beyond the city.”
Ford discontinued the Ranger, a small truck, in 2011, but newer versions are sold in 180 markets around the world. They currently are built in Argentina, South Africa, Thailand and Nigeria.
The Bronco, which drew national attention as the getaway vehicle for O.J. Simpson, was discontinued in 1996 after being built for 30 years at Ford’s plant in Wayne. Its successor, the Expedition, was also built in Wayne before moving to Kentucky Truck. Ford showed a Bronco concept at the 2004 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
A Refreshed F-150
Ahead of its Monday auto show reveal, the automaker announced Sunday a refreshed F-150 that it will bring to market.
The new pickup ditches the three-bar grille that has been Ford’s signature design for over a decade, and brings a diesel engine to the light-duty truck lineup (previously offered only in heavy duty) for the first time in its nearly 70-year history.
Ford crested the 800,000 sales bar for the first time since 2005, leading truck market sales with the F-150 and its new for 2016 F-250 Super Duty brother. The Ford beat out its biggest competitor — the Chevy Silverado by over 250,000 units sold, and it beat General Motors’ Silverado/GMC Sierra twins by about 24,000.
The 2018 F-150 is due in showrooms in the fall 2017, but the diesel version won’t be available until the summer 2018. Built in England by Ford, the diesel will deliver impressive towing ability and is the same oil-burner found in Land Rover’s SUVs.
The F-150 will be the first light-duty truck to get pre-collision assist with pedestrian detection as well as adaptive cruise control which can come to a complete stop – then accelerate again. The 2018 model will also have an available Wi-Fi hot spot that can accommodate up to 10 devices. The F-150 will come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone compatibility

Free Battery & Tire Checks At The Brighton Ford Service Center
Winter is here and the freezing cold temperatures take a toll on your car, truck or SUV. No one wants to get stranded in the freezing cold, so there’s a couple of things we can do for you at Brighton Ford to decrease your chances of being stranded.
We know the weather takes a toll on your vehicle’s battery, besides the frigid temperatures draining battery cells the salt and moisture can get into the battery and do lots of damage. We also know that when temperatures change that the air in your tires finds a way to get out, as a matter of fact 1-2 psi is lost every 10 degrees the temperature drops.
To ensure that your vehicle is safe from the elements we are offering free battery checks and tire checks at Brighton Ford all winter long. We don’t want you to be stuck on the side of the road with a flat tire that could have been prevented. We also would hate it if when you tried starting your car when leaving the grocery store, it didn’t start because the battery is dead. Our Service Department will check both your tires and battery for no cost at all, yes that’s right: FREE!
Brighton Ford’s Service Department does it all, from fleet vehicle repair to oils changes on your daily driver, brakes, shocks and struts or whatever needs to be repaired. And the best part is you can rest assured that our mechanics will fix your car right the first time, as they are the best Certified Technicians and our Service Department won the People’s Choice Award for Best Auto Dealership Service for the Livingston Daily Press and Argus.
Give us a chance to earn your business! Bring your car in from Howell, Pinckney, Brighton, Fenton, South Lyon, Lyon Township, New Hudson, Hartland, Ann Arbor, Novi, Wixom, Milford and you are sure to be impressed with our amazing customer service.
