Overview of Essential Ford Transit Connect Maintenance Needs

Bring your 2013 Ford Transit Connect to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and our technicians will jump right in 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. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your Transit Connect’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2013 Ford Transit Connect? Batteries generally need to be replaced every three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Transit Connect may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Ford Transit Connect battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your Transit Connect stranded. Your Ford Transit Connect won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Routine upkeep for your Ford Transit Connect suspension and steering system can improve ride comfort and help you maintain control of your vehicle. That's important if you plan on taking the road less traveled! Trust our technicians to inspect system components and if needed, provide the appropriate Ford Transit Connect steering and suspension services. This can include things like power steering fluid replacement, wheel alignment adjustments, replacement of struts and wheel bearings, and ball joint lubrication. To keep your car running at its best, it’s essential to have regular maintenance services on your Ford Transit Connect's steering and suspension system.

Without routine Ford Transit Connect maintenance, you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally. A damaged A/C system is never fun, and an overheated engine can cause significant issues (like a total car breakdown!). Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Ford Transit Connect cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Ford Transit Connect radiator in need of replacement? We’ve got your back. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We’re here to fix that, too.
