Electric Vehicle Service FAQs

01

Do electric vehicles need oil changes?

No, EVs do not require oil changes because they do not have traditional combustion engines. This will lead to fewer visits to our Redford Ford service center for routine maintenance and lead to more time spent on the road.

02

What type of maintenance do electric vehicles need?

While electric vehicles eliminate the need for oil changes and some other traditional services, regular maintenance is still essential. Services include tire rotations and regular battery health checks to ensure optimal performance. Because most EVs are equipped with regenerative braking, your vehicle's brake service intervals will also be reduced.

03

How often should I schedule maintenance for my EV?

Typically, EV manufacturers recommend routine checks and maintenance approximately every 10,000 to 15,000 miles. Consult your vehicle's manual or chat with the expert Pat Milliken Ford service team for details. We're ready to provide tailored maintenance schedules based on your EV model. Our local car dealership is even home to Ford service specials to help you save.

04

What are the other advantages of driving an EV?

Beyond reduced maintenance costs, EVs offer environmental benefits. They'll also lead to big savings on gasoline, a huge perk for Michigan Ford drivers who love to spend time on the open road.
