What Kind of Service Does a Ford Mustang Mach-E Need?

October 16th, 2024 by

EV motors are much simpler than big, messy gasoline engines, but they have their own service needs. If you choose our powerful electric Ford SUV, you’ll need to visit us at Kearny Mesa Ford for scheduled Ford Mustang Mach-E service, but it’ll be easier than with a gasoline car.

EV Batteries

Keeping your battery healthy is one of the best ways to ensure your EV runs its best and retains its range. In addition to coming in for regular service, try to avoid extreme temperatures, especially extreme heat, which can drain your battery’s capacity over time. Using DC Fast Charging too often can also harm your battery capacity, so plan to charge at home with Level 1 and Level 2 charging whenever possible.

Cooling Systems

Because electric batteries work best within a specific range of temperatures, keeping the battery cooling system healthy is essential. The service schedule for the 2025 Ford Mustang Mach-E recommends getting your coolant system inspected every six months to ensure it’s still delivering enough power. The cooling system also uses fluid, so you’ll need to refill it along with your brake fluid, transmission fluid, and other essential fluids.

Tire Care

EVs are heavier than traditional gasoline cars, mostly because of the battery. This puts more wear on your tires, which means you’ll have to have them inspected, rotated, and replaced more often. Tires for EVs also sometimes start with less tread depth, which adds more range but can reduce their lifespan.
