2009 Ford F-150 Maintenance Schedule

When it comes to your Ford F-150, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With the right maintenance at the right time, your F-150 has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. But how do you know what service to get and when? There's no need to guess when it's time to get F-150 maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2009 Ford F-150!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Ford, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Staying on track with routine service appointments can help your F-150 perform better, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2009 Ford F-150 problems later.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 2009 Ford F-150 and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your F-150's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.

Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2009 Ford F-150. In general, car batteries only last three to five years.

Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Ford F-150 battery.

Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your F-150 stranded. Your Ford F-150 won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
