Get the Repairs Your 1987 Ford Escort Needs

If your Ford Escort is in need of some TLC, we’re here to ensure you and your car are well cared for. We know that high standards of quality and care can make the best auto repair shops stand out from the rest. Trust Firestone Complete Auto Care with bumper to bumper 1987 Ford Escort repairs, including brake, tire, alignment, drivetrain, and engine repair. Read on to learn about each service.

It’s no secret that properly functioning brakes are an integral part of staying safe in your vehicle. Ford Escort brake problems can put you at risk on the road. Pulsing in the brake pedal, increased stopping distance, brake noise, or an illuminated dashboard brake light should all be cause for concern. Even the most well-maintained cars will need brake repair at some point, including your Ford Escort. As your car ages, brake pads and other small parts will naturally wear out and need to be replaced. Your car’s brake repair timeline can also be affected by your driving habits, as well as the climate in your area.

Much like brake problems, you don’t want to ignore issues with your tires. Tire damage can inhibit your ability to maintain control of your vehicle and stay safe while driving. If you have a flat tire on your 1987 Ford Escort, we can change it for you. In some cases, our technicians may be able to perform a simple patch and plug repair on your Ford Escort tire. More often than not, punctures in the tread area that are less than ¼ inch in diameter can be successfully repaired. If your tire can't be safely repaired, a tire technician can help you find a tire replacement that will keep your car (and your wallet!) happy. Tire damage can have a ripple effect on other parts of your car, so we might suggest an alignment or tire balancing service following a tire repair or replacement.

At your local Firestone Complete Auto Care, we can also take care of your 1987  Ford Escort engine, drivetrain, and transmission repairs. All of these systems contain hundreds of parts that work together to generate heat and energy to propel your car to move. These parts are moving anytime your car is running, so over time, they can take on significant wear and tear. If this happens, you may hear engine knocking noises, feel a delay in transmission shifting, or even smell a burning odor from under your Escort’s hood. Whatever the symptom, bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care. The repair might be a simple spark plug replacement, or a more involved fuel pump fix.

What Will Ford Escort Repairs Cost?

Several factors can affect the cost to repair your 1987 Ford Escort, including what kind of repair you need, the cost of any replacement parts, the amount of labor necessary to get the job done, and your locale. Taxes and labor costs vary greatly from one state to the next. But no matter your location, you may be able to save money with one of our many auto repair coupons or offers.

We know you want reliable, affordable Ford Escort repair services. We understand, too, that you don’t want just anyone doing repair work on your Ford. And there’s one more thing we know for sure: a tool is only as good as the hands behind it. At Firestone Complete Auto Care, the hands behind the tools belong to a trained technician you can depend on. We’re well-versed in repairing common 1987 Ford Escort issues, and all of our work is backed up by our unique Triple Promise: Fixed Right, Priced Right, Right on Time.

1987 Ford Escort Auto Repair Q&A

Concerned about your Ford Escort repair costs? Help prevent major repairs by getting answers to frequently asked auto repair questions.

  • Can scheduled maintenance help me avoid repairs? Don’t neglect scheduled maintenance. Sure, you could skip out on a few recommended maintenance services, but you may pay the price later. Bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care at recommended service intervals to address minor issues before they get out of hand and keep your car running newer, longer.
  • What does it mean to be 'in tune' with your car? No, we’re not talking about finding the best jams on the radio! You know your car best, and you’re the first person who will notice if something doesn’t feel right (like new smells, sights, or sounds coming from your car). If you sense that something is 'off,' stop in for a Courtesy Check to have these symptoms checked out ASAP. Early action could help you prevent Ford Escort repairs.
  • Are the repairs you recommend for my Ford actually needed? Talk to your technician. We'll never recommend a service or repair for your 1987 Ford Escort that we don't think is necessary for your safety.
