Product Questions & Answers
Shopping for Ford Customline Parts
You can never be too complacent when travelling with your car. The driving conditions can suddenly change and make things more challenging. In those unwanted situations, you need to be fully alert and your car always reliable. Significantly, wise drivers make sure they are sober when they drive, and wise car owners ensure that all the car parts are working at their best before hitting the road. Aside from the engine where the car derives its power, visibility and control are also important in making safe travels. The following maintenance tips will help you keep the abovementioned aspects at best:
- Check the lights before you drive.
Even daytime travels need lights to be in good condition at all times. You use them to tell others that you are stopping, making a turn, or simply trying to park. But if you are travelling with intermittent or busted lights, you are putting yourself and the other motorists in danger. Problematic tail lights, for instance, will fail to warn the one at your back that you are stopping. The next thing you will know, your rear bumper is already damaged and your tail lights are smashed. These can all be prevented if you regularly check all of your car's lights, especially the headlights with which you will have to entrust visibility during night drives. And should you travel across thick fog, make sure that the fog lights' brightness can cut through and be able to show you the way clear enough.
- Ensure good steering response.
On emergency situations, wherein the brakes become weak or if they fail, you can still steer to a safer place where you can force your car to stop. Under normal driving conditions, the system allows you to safely steer through all sorts of traffics with minimal or no trouble at all. In other words, you can control the vehicle if its steering system responds well. Keeping all of its moving parts well-lubricated is the basic way to do that. But good steering response requires more than just enough lubricant. You also have to monitor looseness and wearing of the parts, as well as their alignment. Also remember that responsive steering is greatly affected by the suspension system. So you might as wellneed to pay close attention to your suspension.
- Control your car with strong brakes.
In order to have full control over your Ford Customline, good steering response requires a strong braking power to couple it. In worst case scenario, where the steering system fails to do its job, the brakes should save you. And so, you must never miss to resolve any braking glitch as soon as you notice it. Give extra attention on checking the condition of the brake pads, because the stopping power largely depends on them.
- Watch your driving habits.
If good visibility and control already ensure safe travels, then good driving habits are an added assurance. Now, if you think you still have some unhealthy driving habits, such as being impulsive, it will be wise to start working on it already in order to change it in to defensive driving.
