How often should I service my 2007 Ford Taurus?
When it comes to your Ford Taurus, how you treat your car makes all the difference in its performance. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Taurus. So, you want to care for your car, but you’re not sure when to get certain services. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your Taurus, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 2007 Ford Taurus maintenance schedule!
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, recommended maintenance usually includes services like fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your Taurus running for longer, keep you safer on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2007 Ford Taurus problems in the future.
Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2007 Ford Taurus for factory-recommended routine maintenance 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 Taurus’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.
Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2007 Ford Taurus. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Taurus may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Ford Taurus battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. 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 Taurus could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2007 Ford Taurus running newer, longer. Reference the chart toward the top of the page if you're not sure about the optimal oil change intervals for your 2007 Taurus. Keep in mind that your oil change interval could be different given your driving style and climate. Talk to a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to know when to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2007 Ford Taurus.
Routine upkeep for your Ford Taurus suspension and steering system can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!). Don’t let a misalignment or pulling steering wheel put you in danger. You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care’s trained technicians to inspect this system and, if needed, perform Ford Taurus suspension and steering services. These might include wheel alignment, power steering fluid flushes and replenishments, ball joint lubrication, wheel bearing replacement, and strut replacement. Components within your Ford Taurus's steering system require regular maintenance.
Without routine Ford Taurus maintenance, you (and your engine) could quickly lose your cool when there's a problem on the road–especially if that problem is an overheated engine or broken A/C. We can help you with all those issues. Our technicians have the knowledge and tools to repair and maintain the heating and cooling systems for your Ford Taurus’s engine, and we can service your A/C system, too. Need a new Ford Taurus radiator? We can take care of that. Is your A/C blowing hot air? We’re here to fix that, too. Firestone Complete Auto Care is your spot for 2007 Ford Taurus maintenance.
