Ford Vehicle Service Information In Penticton BC
Every car uses coolant to keep its powertrain - you guessed it - cool. It accomplishes this by absorbing heat to stop the water from boiling inside the engine. It also helps prevent metal parts from rusting and plastic components from corroding. Eventually, the coolant in your vehicle will break down becoming acidic and, in turn, no longer fit for its namesake. Over time, this can result in a clogged radiator or heater core, leading to very expensive repairs in the future.
Fortunately, all of this can be avoided with a periodic coolant flush. This standard procedure removes scale and rust deposits, allowing the liquid to perform its duties as intended. New antifreeze also lubricates the car's water pump, extending the life of this essential part.
If you’re not sure whether or not your vehicle needs to have its coolant flushed, get in touch with us at Skaha Ford in Penticton, BC. Our team will be happy to assist you with any maintenance questions you have.
