Your Trusted Auto Service Center in Moline, IL – Summer Maintenance at Sexton Ford

Jun 25, 2025

Why Summer Vehicle Service Matters in Moline

Hot Midwestern summers can take a toll on your vehicle—especially when temperatures spike, storms pass through, and long road trips become part of your weekly routine. At Sexton Ford, we know what local drivers need to stay safe and comfortable on Illinois roads. Whether you’re commuting in Moline or heading toward the Quad Cities Trailways, reliable summer maintenance is a must.

Comprehensive Summer Service at Sexton Ford

Our factory-trained Ford technicians provide a full range of seasonal services tailored to Midwest driving conditions. Here’s how we help you prepare your vehicle for summer travel:

1. Air Conditioning Service and Diagnostics
If your air conditioning is blowing warm air or takes too long to cool down, it may be time for service. We’ll check refrigerant levels, inspect the compressor, test the condenser, and replace the cabin air filter if needed. Our team uses Ford-certified tools to deliver fast, accurate diagnostics and repairs.

2. Battery Check and Replacement
Heat can drain your battery faster than winter cold. We perform a full battery test, checking voltage, load capacity, and terminal condition. If a replacement is needed, we offer Motorcraft® batteries designed specifically for Ford vehicles.

3. Tire Inspection, Rotation, and Alignment
Your tires play a major role in safety and efficiency. We inspect for tread depth, uneven wear, and sidewall damage. We’ll also rotate your tires and perform alignment services if necessary—ideal after hitting potholes or driving long distances.

4. Fluid Top-Offs and Oil Changes
Regular oil changes are critical during the summer months. Our service team will check and top off all essential fluids including engine oil, coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid. We offer synthetic and synthetic blend options tailored to your vehicle and driving needs.

5. Brake System Inspection
With summer travel often including stop-and-go traffic or hilly terrain, your brakes need to be in top condition. We inspect brake pads, rotors, calipers, and fluid lines to ensure safe stopping performance in all conditions.

Every service appointment at Sexton Ford includes a free multi-point inspection. This covers belts, hoses, filters, suspension components, and more—so you can drive away confident that your Ford is fully prepared for the season ahead.
