2014 Ford Taurus Maintenance

You want your Ford Taurus to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your Taurus has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more.

It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Taurus maintenance. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2014 Ford Taurus!

Ford knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Taurus's life, keep you safer on the road, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2014 Ford Taurus problems later.

Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2014 Ford Taurus for factory-recommended routine maintenance and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your Taurus'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 2014 Ford Taurus. Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years.

Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Taurus) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Ford Taurus won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
