Between gravel roads, hot asphalt, and endless kilometres, the tires on your Ford need special care and attention to enhance your crew's uptime.

That's why Skaha Ford in BC offers tire balancing and rotations for busy fleets. These two services go hand-in-hand and are essential for your vehicle's safe and reliable operation. 

Balancing minimizes any wobbling from the wheels, which causes the steering wheel to vibrate at high speeds. Constant vibration will lead to premature tire replacements and suspension, alignment and steering components. 

When balancing tires, it's also essential to rotate your tires with diagonal and straight rotation patterns. This service will ensure an even distribution of the different wear characteristics of each of the tire positions. Additionally, rotations will allow for a longer tire life when performed regularly. A good rule of thumb is to rotate your fleet's tires with each oil change.

You made a wise choice when you equipped your business with a Ford medium-duty truck. Protect your investment with preventative and repair services offered by our team at Skaha Ford.

However, when this system is not functioning correctly, it can spell disaster for your BC commercial fleet by creating long periods of downtime and expensive repairs.

If you haven't had the coolant flushed in your medium-duty truck for quite some time, book an appointment with Skaha Ford in Penticton. During this process, our service experts will add a cleaning agent to remove built-up sediment and rust. Our Technicians will also flush the system and add new antifreeze with a conditioner to protect against corrosion.

There are many advantages to completing regular coolant flushes in medium-duty trucks. Antifreeze-coolant protects the vehicle during cold weather and – most importantly – prevents cavitation, which occurs when there is a lot of pressure in the combustion cycle. Small pockets of air, similar to bubbles, form on the cylinder's liner, producing a variety of issues. The most apparent sign of cavitation is a significant drop in coolant levels while oil levels increase, reducing performance.

Are you unsure of your commercial truck's last coolant flush? If you can't remember or it's been more than three years, it's time to have this critical maintenance service completed.

You don’t want to wait until you need them to find out that there is a problem. Therefore, regular windshield wiper blade inspections, maintenance and replacements are essential for BC commercial fleets.

At Skaha Ford, our team of factory-trained Technicians can help you achieve better visibility in wet or wintery conditions. Since commercial trucks work in any weather and for long hours, it’s recommended to replace your blades at least two to three times a year. Other warning signs, like squeaking, streaking, beading on the windshield or splitting rubber and bent frames, are indications that your Ford is overdue for a wiper blade replacement.

Using OEM parts is the best way to get the most longevity, but regular maintenance is essential, too. To help extend the life of your wipers, clean the blades once a month with a fresh rag and some windshield washer fluid. In dry seasons, it’s also recommended to activate the wipers and washer fluid at least once a week to prevent blades from sticking and causing damage.
