I recently purchased a Ford Kuga 2020 and I want to make sure I am following the best maintenance schedule to keep my car in top condition. Can someone advise me on the frequency of oil changes, tire rotations, and other key maintenance tasks?
ReplyAccording to Ford's official recommendations, you should have your oil changed every 7,500 miles or every 12 months, whichever comes first. As for tire rotations, they should be done every 10,000 miles. Other key maintenance tasks, such as checking your fluid levels and inspecting your brakes, should be done every 6,000 miles.
From my personal experience as a Ford owner, I would recommend following a more frequent maintenance schedule, especially if you do a lot of city driving or have a tendency to drive aggressively. I have found that getting my oil changed every 5,000 miles and rotating my tires every 6,000 miles helps keep my car running smoothly.
I have been a mechanic for over 20 years and I can tell you that staying on top of your car's maintenance is key to keeping it in good condition. I would recommend following the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule, but also make sure to check your car's fluids and other components regularly to catch any potential issues early on.
