Does it cost more to repair Ford Focus electric vehicle systems?

The truth is, it depends. Some high voltage components only come within a larger unit. Keep in mind that promotional financing is available through the Firestone credit card.* (*Subject to credit approval.)

How often should you replace Ford Focus brakes?

A brake inspection is your smartest first step. Investing in manufacturer suggested maintenance intervals for Ford Focus brakes is another good idea. That said, front brake pad wear can be significantly reduced in electric vehicles because of regenerative braking.

My Ford Focus dashboard warning light is on. What should I do?

A dashboard warning light means your Ford Focus needs some sort of attention. There may also be a high voltage system warning light on. Visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an electric vehicle diagnostic.

What can cause my Focus to leak water?

It is normal for an electric car to have some water underneath it after running the air conditioning for a period of time. This moisture is present because electric cars still use a receiver dryer assembly to keep the contaminants out of the vehicles A/C refrigerant, and as part of this process, some condensation is produced as a byproduct. On warm days, the condensation drains under the vehicle. A little bit of water is normal. But if you notice a significant amount of water or any amount of coolant leaking from your Focus, it may be a sign of a problem with the cooling system or another component.

2016 Ford Focus EV Services

Have you noticed your Ford Focus behaving differently? Maybe you've felt less "pep" in its acceleration, or it feels like it is taking forever to go from 0 to 60MPH. Whatever the issue, Firestone technicians can conduct a free* electric/hybrid vehicle check to get a deeper understanding. Maybe there's a problem with your Focus’s high voltage cooling system -- if the high voltage battery is running hot, it will limit the battery’s performance. Then again, it could be that your Focus has Diagnostic Trouble Codes stored in one of its electric modules. Firestone Complete Auto technicians are trained to provide conventional and low voltage services for all electric car makes and models, and that includes your 2016 Ford Focus.

Some Firestone Complete Auto Care locations also offer high voltage/advanced services for Electric Vehicles like the Ford Focus. A high voltage service is any service that involves removing the Ford's high voltage, service/safety disconnect plug/switch, servicing the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, or any high voltage electric machines/motors or high voltage cables, etc. Call ahead before making an appointment to confirm the high voltage services at your closest location.

Some of these high voltage electric vehicle services might include:

Electric vehicle diagnostic: A diagnostic is the next step we take after noting the symptoms your Ford Focus is showcasing. This step will help us get to the bottom of the real problem. With those insights, a trained technician will further diagnose electric vehicle problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. No repairs are performed without your consent.

High voltage battery cooling inspection: Your technician will examine the Focus's high voltage battery filter, if applicable, and clean the battery's ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection: Cables can get damaged. In this inspection, your tehnician will examine the exterior cable jackets and connectors and test to make sure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis of your Ford Focus. If the cable needs to be replaced, they'll let you know.

Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace high voltage battery: Is your Ford Focus's high voltage battery a goner? Electric vehicle batteries may need replacement sooner in hot climates or if you frequently use Level 3 fast-charging stations, as these stations can heat up the battery more. Let us replace it for you.

Health check for the power electronic systems: We'll check the power inverter, electric drive machine(s)/motor(s), and/or regenerative braking in your Ford Focus.

These are only a few of the special electric car services that could be available at your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care. Call first to check!
