Straightforward Repair Services for Your 1989 Ford Escort

We know it’s not just any Ford Escort. It’s your Ford Escort, and we’re here to ensure you and your car are well cared for. We believe that high standards of excellence and a commitment to honesty separate the best auto repair shops from the rest. You can trust your 1989 Ford Escort to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We’re experts in top-to-bottom repair services including alignment adjustments, tire repairs, brake service, drivetrain work, and engine fixes. Read on to learn about each service.

When it comes to brake repairs, your safety is of utmost importance. Even if you’re a careful driver, Ford Escort brake problems can put you at risk on the road. If you notice shaking when you depress your brake pedal, noise from your brakes, increased stop distance, or a brake light that’s lit up on your dashboard, don’t wait to have your brakes inspected and repaired. Even the most well-maintained cars will need brake repair at some point, including your Ford Escort. Over time, parts of your brakes (like the brake pads) experience natural wear and tear and eventually need to be replaced. Driving habits and climate can also affect when you might need brake repair.

Much like brake problems, you don’t want to ignore issues with your tires. If your tires are damaged and can’t grip the road, your safety could be compromised. Our technicians can change a flat tire on your 1989 Ford Escort, or depending on the severity of the damage, 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, your technician will work with you to find an affordable tire replacement. 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.

Your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care is a one-stop shop for 1989 Ford Escort drivetrain, engine, and transmission repair services, too. Each of these systems is made up of hundreds of interconnected parts, each rubbing against another to create heat and energy. 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.

How Much Does Ford Escort Repair Cost?

Several factors can affect the cost to repair your 1989 Ford Escort, including which repairs are needed, costs of replacement parts or repair supplies, how much labor the repair will take, and your locale. Taxes and labor costs vary greatly from one state to the next. They're updated regularly!

We’re well-versed in repairing common 1989 Ford Escort issues, and we stand by our work with our one-of-a-kind Triple Promise: Fixed Right, Priced Right, Right on Time.
