Summer is just around the corner, which means it's time to make sure your vehicle is ready for those warm weather commutes. At Lithia Ford Idaho Falls, our expert service team is here to help ensure your car is in top shape and prepared to beat the heat.

One important task is to have your winter tires changed out for summer or all-season tires. Winter tires are designed to provide superior traction in cold temperatures and on snowy or icy roads. However, they are not ideal for driving in hot summer weather. The softer rubber compound can wear down much faster on hot pavement. Switching to summer or all-season tires will provide better performance, handling, and fuel efficiency for your summer drives.

In addition to changing your tires, our technicians at Lithia Ford Idaho Falls can perform a complete summer readiness inspection of your vehicle. This includes:

  • Checking fluid levels and topping off as needed
  • Inspecting the cooling system and air conditioning
  • Testing the battery to ensure it can handle the summer heat
  • Examining belts and hoses for signs of wear or damage
  • Checking brakes, suspension, and steering components

We'll make sure everything is in proper working order so you can have peace of mind on your summer commutes and road trips. Our service center at 980 West Broadway in Idaho Falls is staffed by certified Ford technicians who know your vehicle inside and out. We use genuine Ford parts for any replacements to keep your car running like new.

Don't wait until that first summer heat wave to get your car ready. Schedule a summer service appointment at Lithia Ford Idaho Falls today and drive with confidence all season long.
