Whether your vehicle needs a major repair or regular maintenance, using OEM parts to repair your Ford can help maximize your vehicle's longevity. Let's take a look at a few reasons why you should schedule a repair at your local Ford dealership, Coughlin Ford of Heath in Heath, OH, and use original Ford parts for every repair. Maximizing Vehicle Longevity With OEM Parts for Your Ford The Truth About Aftermarket Car Parts With original parts by OEM, you can rest assured that each and every part has been built to the same high standard, and put through rigorous testing. The same can't be said for aftermarket parts made by a third-party manufacturer. Often, the consumer has no way of knowing what kind of testing that part has undergone, or what the production process is like. This means that even the same aftermarket parts can be of different quality. Additionally, aftermarket parts may be designed to fit many different types of vehicles to make more money and save on production costs. This means that the part may not be a perfect fit for your vehicle. The Importance of Using Quality Parts Purchasing an aftermarket car part may seem like a good way to save money. However, the reality is that it can wind up costing you more than you'd spend by investing in higher-quality parts. Aftermarket parts that haven't been put through the same testing or built with the same high standard won't last as long as an original part. This means that you'll likely have to replace it sooner. Not only will you need to pay for another part, but you'll also need to pay for service again to have the part installed. If the aftermarket part fails unexpectedly, you could also find yourself stuck and in need of an emergency repair, which can be even more costly. Additionally, if the aftermarket part fails or wears down prematurely, it can lead to damage to other parts of your vehicle as well, which can shorten ​your vehicle's lifespan. Why You Should Schedule Repairs at Your Ford Dealership One of the best ways to guarantee not only that your repairs will be completed using the best original parts, but also that the repair will be of the highest quality, is to always visit a dealership to have work done on your vehicle. The mechanics at the service department at your Ford dealer are experts in your vehicle. They know which parts are best for each repair, as well as the ins and outs of performing every kind of repair. If your vehicle needs regular maintenance or repair work, don't wait to schedule your service.

Ford Trail Control allows you to set your speed while driving off the pavement, a convenient feature similar to cruise control that allows you to focus on the terrain ahead. This feature also responds to subtle changes in trail conditions, giving you precision when climbing hills or creeping over uneven land. When you're in the rock crawl or mud/ruts mode, an available 180-degree camera with a split view helps you see the trail ahead. Navigation Assistance Once you've wrapped up your adventures, you'll need to find your way back home. The available voice-activated touchscreen navigation system makes it easy to get back to home base.

Ensuring your vehicle is always running on good quality tires ensures your safety and the safety of everyone else on the road. It also goes a long way towards keeping your car running efficiently and without issues. If you notice any of the following signs, it might be time to get new tires from your Ford dealer. Is There Uneven Tread Wear? This can manifest in several ways, such as excessive wear on one side of the tire or in the middle. Uneven wear can be caused by improper alignment, incorrect tire pressure, or even issues with the suspension. Regularly inspect your tires for any uneven patterns or bald spots, as these are clear indicators that the tires need to be replaced. Is the Tread Depth Too Shallow? The tread depth of your tires is critical for maintaining grip on the road, especially in wet conditions. A simple way to check the tread depth is the penny test. Stick a penny into the tread groove with Lincoln's head upside down. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, the tread is too low and you need new wheels. Are There Cracks in the Sidewall? Inspect the sidewalls of your Ford's tires. Look for cracks or cuts in the sidewall: these can be indicative of the tire's advanced age or of it being dried out. Cracks in the sidewall can lead to tire failure. Do You See Bulges or Blisters? Another sign to look out for is bulges or blisters on the surface of the tire. These weak spots can lead to a sudden blowout and are often caused by hitting a curb or pothole. Are You Feeling Excessive Vibrations? Although vibrations can be due to various issues, one common cause is uneven tire wear or tires that are out of balance. If the vibrations persist even after having the tires balanced, it's a sign that the tires themselves may need replacing. How Old Are They? Most manufacturers recommend replacing tires every six years, regardless of tread depth. Over time, tires degrade and can become unsafe, even if they're not regularly used. Talk to us about the age of your tires if you're not sure. Do They Lose Air All the Time? If you find yourself frequently needing to top up the air in your tires, it could be a sign of a slow leak. Check for punctures or damaged rims. Continuous air loss is a clear sign that the tires are in some trouble. If you notice any of these signs, it may be time to change up the tires. Come talk to us at Coughlin Ford Heath right away, and we'll make sure you're safe on the road.

Your Ford's engine contains a large number of components, and each must work effectively to enable our car to perform at its best. Engine problems can develop due to damaged or worn parts, and Coughlin Ford of Heath has specialized technicians and equipment to repair any problem. These are a few of the problems that we can repair if they develop. Damaged Sensors Your Ford engine has numerous sensors, each of which is connected to an important component. These sensors relay information to your car's computer on their attached component's health and performance. The computer uses this information to make essential decisions that allow your engine to operate efficiently. Sensors can become damaged or wear out, and a failing sensor will report either wrong information or no information to the computer. Without information from the sensors, the computer is forced to guess what decision to make. For example, a wrong decision on oxygen content in the exhaust can lead to damaged spark plugs or a failed catalytic convertor. We can test your sensors and quickly install replacements if needed. Worn Alternator The alternator produces electricity for all your car's systems and devices. It's a relatively simple component that converts mechanical energy from the crankshaft into DC for your car. The alternator will age, and as it does so, the level of electricity it produces will slowly decrease. This drop in electricity production isn't immediately noticeable, as the alternator usually produces more power than your systems require. Eventually, the alternator will reach a point where it can't supply enough power for all your car's systems. This shortfall in production forces your car's computer to allocate the limited power available to the systems that need it most. This situation can result in other systems slowing down or failing, for example, your radio might suddenly stop working. We can test the alternator, and we will install a new one if it's failing. Blocked Converter Catalytic converters have been installed on every vehicle in the US since 1975. The converter changes dangerous chemicals produced by the combustion process into less harmful ones and water. It does this using a combination of extreme pressure, chemical reactions, and great heat. The conversion process produces carbon, which can cause a blockage in the converter. If the converter is blocked, engine gasses that enter the convertor will be forced back into the engine. These chemicals increase pressure in the engine and will alter the fuel-air mixture. A high fuel-to-air ratio turns your engine fuel-rich, which causes damage to engine components and increases fuel consumption. We can fix a blocked converter by removing it and clearing the blockage. If your engine has a problem, we'll fix it. Call our service department today at Coughlin Ford of Heath.

There are lots of components of your car that'll need to be replaced every few years, and your headlights are one—well, technically two—of those components. You won't need to get new headlights too frequently, but you'll still need to stop by the Coughlin Ford of Heath to replace them once in a while. How Often Do You Need New Headlights? How often you need to replace your headlights depends largely on how often you use them. For example, if you do a lot of driving late at night or in the very early morning, then you'll need to replace yours more often than a driver who drives most during daylight. Headlights last the average driver at least five years, though they may even remain working for another year or two after those five years are up. However, headlights get dimmer over time, as the bulbs age and will begin to wear out. That's why you should replace them before they stop working as well as they used to. Problems That Mean It's Time to Visit the Ford Dealer to Replace Your Headlights 1. Dimming As we said above, when your headlights get dimmer, it means they're on their way out. If they're significantly dimmer than they used to be, then they're probably going to stop working sooner rather than later. 2. Flickering It's very common for bulbs to flicker when they're burning out. If you notice even a small amount of flickering, then you should get to the dealer before you have to use the headlights again. The flickering will probably get worse until your headlights stop working completely. 3. One Stops Working When one of your headlights stops working, then it's a sign that the other one isn't going to last much longer. Your headlights should always be replaced at the same time, so visit the dealer to get both of the bulbs replaced. 4. Haziness or Yellow Hue Haziness and yellowing sometimes tell you that your headlights are becoming weaker and will need to be replaced soon. However, the lights becoming hazy and/or yellow can also tell you that your headlights just need a good cleaning with a special solution that you'll find at the dealer. 5. They Stop Working If your headlights just stop working completely, then you definitely need to head to the dealer. Make sure you make the trip on a bright, clear day. Be aware that your dealer may want to check your battery, too, as a dying battery can also stop your headlights from working properly. Stop by Coughlin Ford of Heath if you need replacement headlights for your car. We'll get them replaced for you in no time, so it won't be long before you're back on the road with fully functioning headlights once again.

Your car's battery is like its heart: it keeps everything running smoothly and ensures you can start its engine whenever you need to. However, just like any other car part, batteries wear out over time. It's important to recognize the signs that your Ford might need a new car battery before it leaves you stranded. Here are some signs it might be time to head to the Ford dealership to replace your car battery. 1. Slow Engine Crank When you turn the key or push the start button, your engine should roar to life almost instantly. If you notice that your Ford is taking longer than usual to start, or the engine is cranking slowly, it could be a sign that your battery is on its way out. The battery provides the necessary power to start the engine, but as it ages, it loses its ability to hold a charge, resulting in a slower start. 2. Dimming Lights and Electrical Issues The battery powers all the electrical components in your car, from the headlights to the radio. If you notice that your lights are dimmer than usual, or if other electrical components are not working correctly, it could be an indication that your battery is losing its charge. When the battery is weak, it struggles to supply the necessary power to all the car's electrical systems, leading to diminished performance. 3. The "Check Engine" or Battery Light is On Most Fords come equipped with a battery warning light on the dashboard, which illuminates if the battery is not charging properly. Additionally, a weak battery might trigger the "Check Engine" light. If either of these lights comes on, it's important to get your battery tested as soon as possible to determine if it needs to be replaced. 4. A Swollen Battery Case The battery case should always be in good condition. If you notice that it is swollen or bloated, it's a clear sign that the battery has gone bad. This can happen when your battery is exposed to excessive heat, causing the internal parts to expand. This not only diminishes the battery's performance but can also be dangerous if not addressed promptly. Get Help at Your Ford Dealership Keeping an eye on your car's battery can save you from the hassle of getting stranded. Regular maintenance and battery checks at the dealership can help ensure that your Ford always has the power it needs to keep you on the move. If you have noticed any trouble with your car's battery, don't hesitate to get it checked. Remember, a healthy battery means a happy Ford and a reliable ride for you. Call Coughlin Ford of Heath and schedule a battery check today!
