Ford Focus Maintenance Schedule

The new Ford Focus is a sporty sedan with plenty of personality. If you're a new owner of this vehicle, you've likely already gotten good use of your Focus from traveling around Stroudsburg, East Stroudsburg, Easton, Nazareth and Lehigh Valley, PA.

When will your new wheels be due for its first set of service? The preventative maintenance pros at Ray Price Stroud Ford created this handy Ford Focus maintenance schedule to help make sure your Focus continues to run its best for many years down the road.

Every 10,000 Miles or 12 Months

At one year of owning your Ford Focus, or 10,000 miles driven, your car will be due for its first official service set. At this milestone, a certified Ford technician will:

• Change the engine oil and filter: This ensures that your motor's internal parts move smoothly and the internal engine environment stays cool.
• Inspect and rotate the tires: This helps even out tread wear and allows you to get the best handling and safety for your vehicle.
• Perform a multi-point inspection: This thorough inspection makes sure your Focus' internal systems are in tip-top shape, from taking a closer look at the cooling system and hoses to checking the transmission fluid level, braking system, and key suspension system elements.

Future Maintenance Milestones

As your most fundamental set of services required to keep your Focus running strong, the maintenance items above will repeat every 10,000 miles or 12 months, with just a few additional items required at the following milestones:

• Every 20,000 miles: Replace the cabin air filter
• Every 30,000 miles: Replace engine air filter
• At 40,000 miles: 10,000- and 20,000-mile services due
• At 60,000 miles: 10,000- and 30,000-mile services due
• At 80,000 miles: 10,000- and 40,000-mile services due
• At 90,000 miles: 10,000- and 60,000-mile services due

At 100,000 Miles

Your next major maintenance interval will take place when your Focus reaches 100,000 miles on its odometer, or about 10 years of ownership. During this checkup, your Ford technician will conduct all services at the 10,000-mile interval and:

• Replace platinum spark plugs
• Replace cabin air filter
• Change orange coolant

Monthly Checks for Focus Owners

In addition to making sure your Ford Focus makes it to each of these maintenance appointments, Focus owners can keep an eye on the performance of their vehicle and know if making an interim appointment is needed. Here's what you should look for:

• Check and fill fluids (if needed): engine oil level, windshield washer fluid
• Check all tires for pressure (add air if needed) and for wear (punctures and the penny test)
• Check all lights, including turn signals, headlights, interior lights, etc.
