Free Checks for Priceless Peace of Mind

Schedule a complimentary Courtesy Check for your Ford Escort and enjoy priceless peace of mind when driving.

Courtesy Checks on Your Ford Escort

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we perform a multi-point Courtesy Check during any vehicle service. It's one of the best ways to better understand your Ford Escort's maintenance needs and address any issues as early as possible. What can you expect from a Courtesy Check? First, a technician will pop the hood on your Ford Escort and test the battery to determine how much charge remains. We know that the best time to replace your battery is before you need to. The check will continue with a visual inspection of your Ford Escort's lights, windshield wipers, filters, alignment, tires, hoses, belts and fluid levels. Once your Courtesy Check is complete, we’ll outline everything we found in a report for you. What’s the cost of a Courtesy Check? Nothing (except a few minutes out of your day)! Time spent caring for your car is time well spent, indeed!

Ford Escort Complete Vehicle Inspections

While every visit to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care includes a Courtesy Check, we also offer an in-depth Complete Vehicle Inspection for your 1988 Ford Escort. A Complete Vehicle Inspection is our most comprehensive diagnostic service. During a Complete Vehicle Inspection, we’ll visually check everything that’s on the list for a Courtesy Check. Additionally, we’ll perform an examination (by hand!) of your steering and suspension system, brakes, and exhaust components. With this inspection, we want to help you stay on top of any issues that may wreak havoc on your car if left unaddressed. Because you can only drive with confidence when you have confidence in the health and integrity of your Ford Escort.

Ford Escort Testing & State Inspection

Depending on where you live, your local Firestone Complete Auto Care may be able to perform state-mandated inspections or safety tests on your vehicle. Inspections are performed on a state-by-state basis and requirements vary. Before you head to your nearest store for a safety test or other state inspection, call ahead to make sure this service is offered.
