Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Ford, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your F-150 Heritage’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2004 Ford F-150 Heritage? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your F-150 Heritage may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Ford F-150 Heritage battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Ford F-150 Heritage won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.
