The alternator is one of your Ford’s most essential components, as it produces the electricity that allows almost every other system to work. As time passes, the alternator can become worn or damaged. Alternator problems can cause various effects, ranging from dim headlights to starting difficulties. As your Ford dealership, we’d like you to know a few signs that you need to visit us for an alternator repair.

Burning Smells

Foul, burning smells from under the hood could mean the alternator is in trouble. The three most common causes of these smells are an overheating alternator, a jammed pulley, and worn wiring. Wiring becomes fragile as it ages, and it can break. The alternator will continue to supply power to the broken wire, which heats up. The hot wire can cause the protective wire insulation to burn, and you’ll smell burning plastic.

A burning rubber smell could be due to a jamming alternator belt. The alternator belt moves at speed across several pulleys, which causes the pulleys to spin. A jammed pulley will cause friction as the belt moves over it, and you’ll smell burning rubber. Finally, a hot metal smell could be due to a worn alternator struggling to produce power and overheating. We’ll examine your engine and fix the cause of the burning smell.

Even excellently maintained vehicles need repairs sometimes. The local Ford dealership can take care of all the repairs your vehicle needs. This includes brake repairs. The dealership can also perform preventative maintenance on your brakes so they’re less likely to fall into disrepair.

How Often You Should Visit the Ford Dealership for Brake Service

You need to have your brakes inspected at the Ford dealer at least once a year. That way, your dealer can make sure there’s nothing wrong with the braking system. If there are problems, then you can have them repaired before they start causing major issues with how your braking system works.

There are some forms of brake maintenance you need regularly, too. You’ll need to top up your brake fluid level if it becomes too low, and you should have the brake fluid replaced every two years. The brake pads also need to be replaced regularly. Typically, they’re replaced after every 20,000 to 70,000 miles you drive.

Tread Depth: A Primary Indicator

The tread depth of your tires is a clear indicator of their condition. Over time, the depth decreases, impacting the tire’s ability to grip the road, especially in wet conditions. A simple way to check this is the “penny test.” Insert a penny into the tread with Lincoln’s head upside down. If you can see the top of Lincoln’s head, it’s time to replace your tires.
