Along with great handling and stylish good looks, a purchase from your Ford dealer will also come with a suite of car safety features. These act as an extra pair of eyes and a helping hand behind the wheel. Here are some ways Ford continues to keep you and your loved ones safe on the road. 5 Car Safety Features To Ask Your Ford Dealer About 1.    Lane-Keeping System Ford's Co-Pilot360 technology is present in many new and used vehicles now on sale and uses scanners to keep tabs on the road as you drive. One function of these scanners is to recognize your position within the lane markings, ensuring that you won't drift into traffic during a moment's inattention. If the system detects that you're too close to the line, an alert will show on the instrument cluster display, and the steering will be gently corrected. And it might prompt you to take a break if it notices that you're repeatedly straying from the center of the lane. more 2.    Auto High-Beam Headlights Driving in the dark takes enough concentration, so it's easy to forget to dim your high beams to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers. But Ford's intelligent headlights can sense the approach of another car and will switch them automatically. It's sensitive to lighting, too, and adjusts the headlights to provide the correct illumination in all conditions. 3.    Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control If your car has adaptive cruise control, speed-sign recognition will adjust your pace automatically, while stop-and-go technology recognizes upcoming traffic and slows the car in preparation. If your Ford has the BlueCruise feature, you'll benefit from hands-free driving on approved parts of the highway called Blue Zones. This means you'll be able to sit back and relax on over 130,000 miles of American roads. 4.    Blind Spot Information System Ford BLIS is designed to protect you from being taken by surprise by any vehicle lurking out of sight in an adjacent lane. The system will alert you if there's a vehicle alongside you and features a cross-traffic alert that activates if someone approaches while you're reversing out of a parking space. The available trailer coverage system will help augment these features to monitor the traffic near your trailer. 5.    Pre-Collision Assist With Automatic Emergency Braking It's impossible to guarantee that the unexpected won't happen while driving, but Ford's automatic emergency braking system will give you extra protection from a crash. The system will alert you if there are vehicles or pedestrians on the road ahead. It can also apply the brakes if you don't have time to react. Ford has been pioneering better safety design since the first national safety forum in 1955, so you couldn't be in better hands behind the wheel.

For safe driving, car tires should usually always have between 32 and 36 pounds per square inch (PSI) of pressure when cold. This figure varies from car to car, so it's always wise to check the optimal tire pressure of your vehicle. Most drivers in Lanham, MD, and the rest of the state check tire pressure once or twice per month. It's a relatively simple process that shouldn't take you more than a few minutes once you're used to it. Driving in Lanham, MD: How to Check Your Tire Pressure Prepare Your Tools You'll need a tire pressure gauge to measure the PSI. Digital gauges display the PSI on a screen. Manual gauges give you a reading on a dial. Both work equally well, and you can find either one in your local auto parts store. more If your tire pressure is low, you'll also need access to a tire inflator. If you don't own a portable inflator, you can find plenty of air dispensers at gas stations around Maryland. Only Check Tire Pressure When Cold Before you begin, make sure your tires are completely cold. Heated air from driving increases a tire's PSI and gives you a false reading. Wait a few hours after using your car before taking measurements. Early morning is usually a good time to take tire pressure measurements. Remove the Air Valve Cap In the side of your wheel, you'll find the tire's air valve poking through the wheel's inner rim. Take off the cap and keep it in a safe place nearby. You might need a pair of pliers to remove a stiff cap. Press Your Gauge Against the Valve Apply the gauge to the valve mouth, and you'll have your PSI reading after a second or two. Observe if it's higher or lower than the tire's optimal pressure. Add Air If It's Low If the reading is low, use your inflator to add a little air. Then retake the reading. Keep adding a little air and retaking the reading like this until the PSI is just right. Release Air If It's High If your reading is too high, there's a small dot on the back of most gauges that allows you to release air. Press the dot against the valve, and you'll hear the hiss of air escaping. Let a little out, then retake the pressure reading. Repeat this process until the PSI is just right. Screw the Cap Back On Once your PSI is at the correct level, put the cap back on. Then, move on to the next tire and repeat the process. Inspect Your Tires at the Same Time This periodical tire pressure check is a good opportunity to examine your tires for embedded objects or other signs of damage. Look out for any blistering or deep cracks in the rubber. Also, measure your tread depth, which should always be kept from falling below 2/32 of an inch. Have your tires examined today by qualified technicians at DARCARS Ford of Lanham. We're a well-established dealership serving the area's drivers from Seabrook to New Carrollton.

While driving, your spark plugs are firing an incredible 400 times per second. A single plug can be expected to last 30,000 miles or more. But eventually, all plugs crack, burn out, or become too dirty. The following four signs of plug trouble should prompt you to visit your local Ford dealer for replacements. You See Black Smoke In the Rearview Mirror Working in tandem with ignition coils, your plugs ignite the fuel-air mixture that's pumped continually into the combustion chambers. When a plug begins to struggle and falter, all that fuel being pumped in is no longer burning away as it should. This excess fuel gets expelled from the engine through the exhaust system. As a result, you'll see black smoke rising from your tailpipe behind you. On occasion, you'll even see flames in the smoke as the unburned fuel ignites on its way out. more Your Engine Can't Generate Enough Power After years of driving your Ford, you'll be used to how it sounds and feels while on the road. If you find yourself pressing on the gas, but the engine isn't accelerating properly, you might have a problem with your plugs. This lack of power can be felt very clearly while idling. Instead of the nice smooth rumble of a healthy Ford engine, you'll find it coughing and shaking, struggling to stay alive. If more than one plug has failed, your car might even stall. Your Fuel Economy's Dropping With faltering plugs, your engine is no longer burning fuel as efficiently. You'll therefore find yourself stopping for gas more often. If your gas mileage is falling and you also notice other engine problems, you might have a bad plug or two that need replacing. A few other factors can also cause poor fuel economy. These include a clogged air filter, faulty ignition coils, malfunctioning oxygen sensors, exhaust issues, or problems with your catalytic converter. Your Dashboard Warns You The check engine light on your dashboard will almost always come to life when your plugs fail. You won't know exactly what caused the check engine light to blink. You'll need to ask a technician to diagnose and fix the problem. How a Ford Dealer Checks Your Plugs During an inspection, a technician will remove each plug and examine it for cracks or burned electrodes. In the case of serious damage, the plug will have to be thrown out and replaced. Plugs can occasionally become caked in soot, which is easily cleanable. But this superficial problem usually indicates something else has gone wrong in your engine, causing the combustion chambers to create too much sooty residue. Have your engine and plugs inspected today at DARCARS Ford of Lanham. We're a well-established local dealership dedicated to providing excellent customer service and great vehicles.

Your car overheating can cause severe damage to your engine. A car engine is in a naturally hot environment due to combustion. The temperature in the engine, however, must be controlled to prevent damage. As your Ford dealer, we can find and fix any overheating problem. We want to tell you several signs that your engine needs to be checked before it's too late. Is Your Car Overheating? Stop by DARCARS Ford of Lanham Engine Temperature Gauge Your engine temperature should hover around the mid-point of the temperature gauge. This shows that your engine is running normally and that its cooling system is working correctly. Your engine temperature can sometimes climb higher, for example, when accelerating, but it should fall again. If the engine temperature starts to rise, this means there's a problem. more The exact cause isn't clear from the temperature gauge, but it's an excellent indicator that something is wrong. We advise that you pull over as soon as it's safe to do so and allow your engine to cool down. Once your engine is cool, call our service department right away. Our Ford-trained technicians are repair experts, and we'll fix the problem for you ASAP. Blocked Radiator When your engine temperature goes up, coolant is released into your engine. Coolant has the unique ability to absorb heat and trap it. The coolant is pumped into your radiator, where it's cooled by airflow through the radiator grille. Once the coolant temperature has returned to normal, it circulates through your engine again. The coolant also absorbs dirt and other debris in your engine. These minute fragments are carried in the coolant of the radiator, then left there when the coolant is recirculated. As time passes, this debris builds up at the bottom of your radiator and causes a blockage. The debris can also block hoses, pipes, and other radiator parts. A blocked radiator will cause your engine to overheat. Damaged Water Pump The water pump has a crucial role in cooling your engine. This pump is responsible for pumping the coolant through your engine to control the temperature. The cooling system operates at high speed and under high pressure to ensure that the system operates at maximum efficiency. Like any other pump, the water pump can fail due to age or metal fatigue. A failed water pump means the coolant released into the engine won't help. The coolant can't move through your engine without a pump, and the temperature will climb. We can easily check the pump and fit a replacement if needed. An overheated engine is costly to repair and can permanently damage your car. If your car is hotter than it should be, call us at DARCARS Ford of Lanham.

Electrical problems can seem to appear out of nowhere. Any problem in the electrical system will impact other components and lead to further problems. As your Ford dealer, we can repair any of these problems for you. These are a few of the issues that we can fix for you. Electrical Problems? Visit Your Ford Dealer in Lanham Today Failing Alternator The alternator is the center of your car's electrical charging system. It generates electricity, which powers your car's systems and devices. As an alternator gets older, it slows down and produces less electricity. As time passes, electrical production will continue to fall, and eventually, the alternator won't be able to supply all your car's electrical needs. You'll experience random electrical glitches, dim lights, and other signs of electricity starvation when this happens. Your Ford's computer will shift the available electricity from system to system, but this will become more difficult. Our technicians can test your alternator and replace it if it's failing. A new alternator will fix the electrical supply problem. more Damaged Ignition Coil Ignition coils boost the power of the spark plugs. The spark plug's job is to ignite the fuel-air mix in its attached cylinder. A spark plug produces 12 volts of power, which is needed to initiate combustion. The ignition coil attached to the spark plug boosts this power to 30,000 volts. The coil provides enough power to spark combustion easily. Ignition coils will wear out over time. Worn spark plugs or oil leaks can also damage them. The position of the ignition coils means leaking oil can easily spill on them. The oil will damage the coil and prevent it from generating the necessary electrical charge. We will check the coils and replace any damaged ones. Once the coils are working again, your engine performance will improve. Worn Wiring The electricity produced by the alternator is carried to every electrical device and system via a complex wiring system. A car's engine isn't the ideal place for wiring, as it's hot and dirty, and the wiring is subject to movement as you drive. This wiring has tough plastic and rubber insulation, but it can still get damaged. The wiring can break and cut off the electrical supply to a component. A broken wire doesn't conduct electricity, so that the wire will heat up at the break. If the wiring gets hot enough, it can set fire to the insulation. Damaged insulation can also cause a shortage in the electrical system and create further damage. We'll test your wiring and replace any damaged sections. We don’t want your Ford to have any electrical issues. So, make sure you come see us for your routine maintenance. If you suspect there might be an issue with your car’s electrical system, reach out to us. Call our service department today at DARCARS Ford of Lanham.

Staying safe when you're behind the wheel of a car is more than being alert and focused. Having good driving skills is essential, but you also need a vehicle that is reliable and in good working order. Having a safety inspection done at your Ford dealer benefits you and is also good for other drivers on the road, and certain things should always be checked. 5 Things You Should Always Check When Getting a Safety Inspection at a Ford Dealer 1.    The Brakes One of the most fundamental components of a vehicle is the brakes. If you are unable to stop, this is going to cause a lot of issues for you and anyone around you. When it comes to a brake inspection, the technician will check to see how worn the brake pads and rotors are, as well as check for any brake fluid leaks. 2.    The Tires While a professional is examining your brakes, they will probably also take some time to look at your tires. They check to ensure the tread isn't worn down and that your tires aren't suffering from bubbles, dry rot, or other damage. A professional will also inspect your spare tire to ensure it's ready for use should the situation arise where you need it. more 3.    The Lights Having functioning lights is essential when it comes to you being able to see what's on the road and other drivers being able to see you. Not only should the headlights be in good working order, but your taillights, hazards, turn signal, brake lights, and license plate lights should all work the way they are supposed to. 4.    The Windshield Seeing clearly through your windshield could be the difference between getting safely to your destination and not arriving. A windshield inspection will include ensuring that your view isn't obstructed and looking for chips, cracks, or loose seals that could become a significant problem later down the road. In addition to checking the actual windshield, a professional will also inspect your windshield wipers and the defroster. If these components aren't working as they are supposed to, this could impede your ability to see what's in front or behind you, resulting in a dangerous situation. 5.    The Seat Belts The seat belts in your vehicle should auto-lock and retract to stay safe in the event of hard braking or an accident. Seat belts that don't work right could result in serious injuries or death, but an inspection by a professional can reduce the chances of tragedies occurring. An inspection is necessary for your safety, and if a professional finds a problem, they should be able to fix it. Whether you need an assessment or are looking for a new vehicle, visit DARCARS Ford of Lanham today!

You love your Ford and want to take good care of it. The best thing you can do for your Escape, Edge, or F-150 is to get regular car maintenance from the qualified technicians at your Ford dealership in Lanham, MD. The following maintenance tips will help keep your Ford in tip-top condition and on the road for thousands of miles. 1.    Rely on Ford Experts for Routine Checks If you want your Ford to run at its best, stick to the Ford service schedule and maintenance intervals. It's crucial to rely on the factory-trained Ford technicians at your dealership, who provide top-quality maintenance services. Ford technicians know your car inside and out, use advanced technology and equipment, and fit quality genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts specifically designed for your vehicle. Check your Ford owner's manual for the factory-recommended maintenance intervals for your model. more 2.    Change the Oil Regularly Change your car's oil at the recommended intervals to keep the engine running smoothly. Oil lubricates the moving parts, reduces friction that causes wear, and prolongs the life of your car's engine. Even if your Ford has an oil life monitoring system (OLMS) that warns you when an oil change is due, it's essential to change the oil at least once a year. 3.    Perform Routine Fluid Checks In order for your Ford to run properly, all the fluids in your car must be at the correct levels. Monitor the oil, coolant, brake, transmission, power steering, and windshield washer fluid levels monthly to ensure they are at the proper levels and top them off when necessary. 4.    Don't Ignore Unfamiliar Smells and Sounds You know what your Ford smells and sounds like, and when you suddenly hear strange sounds or smell unpleasant odors, it's a warning that something is wrong. Smells and noises can be caused by various problems, from bad brakes, failing alternators, and radiator problems to worn belts and transmission issues. Get noises and smells checked out as soon as possible before paying a lot of cash for repairs and replacements. 5.    Keep an Eye on the Dashboard Warning Lights If you notice a dashboard warning light is on, there is likely a problem. Never ignore warning lights. Ask your Ford technician for a diagnostic test and get the problem repaired before it causes more damage. 6.    Wash and Wax Your Car A good wash every week or so always makes a car look great, but it also removes road dirt, dust, and bird droppings that can scratch the paint. Wax your vehicle every six months. Wax causes a protective shield that reduces fading, scratching, and rust. If you take care of your Ford, you will enjoy every mile behind the wheel. Contact DARCARS Ford of Lanham today and schedule a maintenance appointment and ensure your Ford runs at its best.

Ford engines are highly reliable, but all engines require regular maintenance. A lack of maintenance can lead to engine problems. Fortunately, if you're in the area of Lanham, MD, your friendly Ford dealer can help fix these problems for you. These are some of the signs that your engine may have a problem. 3 Engine Problems You Should Always Fix at Your Ford Dealer 1.    Overheating Engine Your engine runs at a high temperature, enabling it to operate efficiently. The heat, however, will become a problem if it's allowed to build up. An engine that's running too hot can suffer catastrophic damage. Your Ford is protected against overheating by a state-of-the-art cooling system. The liquid coolant absorbs the heat and transfers it to the radiator for removal. If you see your engine temperature climbing for no apparent reason, your car could be overheating. We advise pulling over ASAP and allowing your engine to cool. Once the engine has cooled, call our service department right away. Our Ford-trained technicians will investigate the cause of the high temperature and attempt to fix it. 2.    Worn Spark Plugs A spark plug is attached to each of your engine's cylinders. The combustion process requires air, fuel, and a spark plug to ignite the mix. Once they're correctly mixed, the mixture is injected into the cylinders. The fuel-air in the cylinders is compressed under pressure and ignited by the spark plugs. The resulting series of explosions move your car. Spark plugs can wear out over time. The failure of other engine components can also damage them. If a spark plug can't spark, the contents of its cylinder won't ignite, and this causes a misfire in the cylinder. Repeated misfiring can damage your cylinders. Our technicians can easily test each spark plug for you and replace any damaged ones. 3.    Damaged Gas Cap The gas cap provides the essential seal that protects your gas tank against water, dirt, and other contaminants. It also helps to remove dangerous fuel vapors from your car. A gas cap is a frequently-used part of your car, as you open and close it each time you fill up. Over time, the seal can become damaged, which reduces the pressure in your fuel system. The lack of pressure will cause performance issues for your engine, as the fuel injectors require a pressurized system to work. You'll also notice problems when your car is idling. We'll check the gas cap and replace the seal or install a new cap for you. If you have an engine issue, you need an expert repair. Call us today at DARCARS Ford of Lanham so we can help you get your engine issues fixed. Image via Pexels Photo by Kaboompics

Many drivers don't think about their transmission. A smoothly running transmission, however, is just as vital to your car as a smoothly working engine. The transmission is highly complex and consists of hundreds of moving parts. Many of these parts depend on friction to work, and friction causes damage. As your Ford dealer, we'd like to tell you about some of the benefits of routine transmission service. 3 Benefits of Getting Routine Transmission Service at Your Ford Dealer 1.    Your Transmission Will Last Longer The transmission is built to last. It does, however, contain numerous parts that can wear or get damaged. Servicing the transmission allows our technicians to check it for unnoticed wear or possible damage. Our Ford-trained technicians are experts, allowing us to anticipate potential issues before they arise. During the service, we replace the transmission filter, drain and replace transmission fluid, and perform all other necessary maintenance work. Clean, new transmission fluid, for example, will improve transmission cooling and increase the hydraulic power for shifting gears. Regular maintenance improves the health and lifespan of your transmission. more 2.    You Save Money Maintenance costs money, but you'll save even more by having a regularly-scheduled service for your transmission. Replacing a component like the transmission pan gasket will help to prevent a transmission fluid leak. Leaking transmission fluid can lead to your transmission overheating as the transmission loses its cooling system with each drop of fluid that drips out. You'll also save money by preventing unnecessary wear and tear on transmission components. Replacing a small damaged component may easily further damage other components. A good, working transmission also reduces strain on your engine. The torque converter links your engine and transmission. This physical link means an inefficient, damaged transmission will also affect your engine. 3.    Your Transmission Will Work More Efficiently Cleaning the transmission, replacing the fluid, and installing new parts allow your transmission to work more effectively. Replacement transmission fluid, for example, removes the older worn fluid and replaces it with fresh, clean fluid. As transmission fluid ages, it becomes less effective at reducing the transmission temperature and providing the necessary hydraulic power for your gears to shift. Transmissions also build up dirt, rust particles, and other debris. This junk can cause blockages in the transmission, leading to reduced transmission performance. Blockages also contribute to raising the temperature. A transmission that gets too hot can start to overheat. A clean transmission is a healthy transmission. Transmissions have a reputation as expensive and time-consuming to repair. Usually, this isn't the case, as a transmission problem that's noticed when it first appears can be easily fixed. If your transmission is due for its scheduled service, call our service department at DARCARS Ford of Lanham.

Every time you get into your car and head down the road, you expect to get from one place to another without issues. However, it's possible that at any moment, your vehicle can experience a breakdown. Not only is this frustrating, but it can be hazardous as well. If you find yourself in a car breakdown in Lanham, MD, there are some things you'll need to do. What to Do During a Car Breakdown in Lanham, MD Turn on Your Emergency Lights Once you realize something is wrong with your vehicle, you first must warn other drivers on the road. Turn on your emergency lights to let them know they need to be cautious around you. Slow Down and Pull Over If possible, you want to head to the right-hand side of the road. This ensures you aren't crossing in front of other vehicles and blocking their path. You also want to find a safe, flat location and get as far away from the moving traffic as possible. more Set the Emergency Brake Once you've gotten your vehicle on the side of the road, it's recommended that you set your emergency brake (also referred to as your "parking brake"). You might also consider turning your wheels away from the road, as this can help reduce the chances of your vehicle rolling into traffic if you're on a hill or incline. Call for Help Depending on the nature of the breakdown, you may need to contact emergency personnel or a tow truck. Call them as soon as your vehicle is stopped, and it's safe to do so. Make Yourself Visible It's not recommended that you get out of your vehicle after pulling onto the side of the road. Instead, you should wait for the tow truck or other emergency vehicle to arrive. If you must get out to inspect the damage or potentially make repairs, make sure you are visible to other drivers. Climb out of the car away from traffic, then prop up your hood so that other drivers know to be cautious as they drive by. Set Up Triangles or Flares If you happen to have flares or safety triangles in your vehicle, set these up as another way to let drivers know that you are experiencing issues and to pass with care. Experiencing a breakdown on the side of the road can be an incredibly trying experience. Staying safe and getting help are of the utmost importance. If you need to get your car serviced or decide to buy a new one, visit DARCARS Ford of Lanham today.

The lights on the front of your car are essential to keep you safe as you drive from one place to another. Making sure they are in good working order is imperative. If you're wondering if it's time to get new headlights from your local Ford dealer, there are some signs you need to look for. 5 Signs You Need New Headlights From a Ford Dealer 1.    The Lights Appear Dim When driving at night, if your lights seem dimmer than they used to be, this could indicate that they need to be replaced. It could also be an indication that the covers are dirty. If, after cleaning the covers, the lights still appear dim, it's in your best interest to get new ones installed. 2.    The Lights Flicker A flickering light means that the bulb's filament is damaged or worn, or it could mean that there is a loose connection somewhere in your vehicle. No matter the reason, if you notice your lights flickering, you need to get your car to a professional as soon as possible to discover the issue and get it fixed. more 3.    You Have Issues With Your High Beams Turning on your high beams keeps you safe in the darkest of environments. If you switch to high beams and nothing happens, this is a safety hazard and an indication that you need new lights as soon as possible. 4.    One Light Is Burned Out Once one of your lights has burned out, it won't be long before the other goes as well. Getting both of them replaced simultaneously ensures that you can see while driving at night, and it also saves you a trip to the service center to get the other bulb replaced. 5.    You Keep Blowing Fuses Any issues could cause blown fuses in your vehicle, but if you keep blowing fuses and notice issues with your lights, this could indicate that you need to replace the bulbs. Taking your vehicle to a professional and having them diagnose the issue is in your best interest. Electrical issues can wreak havoc on various components in your car, so getting this taken care of by someone with skills and experience will save you a lot in the long run. Getting your lights replaced as soon as possible is the best idea to stay safe on the road. Not only do you need to be able to see where you're going, but other drivers also need to be able to see you. If you need to get your car serviced or you want to see the latest Ford models, head down to DARCARS Ford of Lanham Service Center today.

In summer, having working AC is essential. A car AC not working becomes even more of a problem when the temperatures start to climb. Your AC needs regular service and maintenance to keep it working effectively. As your Ford dealer, we'd like to tell you about some possible signs that your AC needs to be repaired. Damaged Condenser Your AC system consists of several different components. Each of these components needs to work together in order for your AC to work. The condenser is responsible for cooling the refrigerant and changing it from a gas into a liquid. Other parts of the AC system will then use this cold liquid to provide the cold air you need in your cabin. The condenser is located at the front of your car near the radiator. It can, unfortunately, get dirty due to dust and other pollutants drawn into your vehicle. A blocked or damaged condenser won't be able to cool the air for your AC. We routinely check your condenser during its regular service, and our technicians can clean it and remove any blockage causing the problem. more Leaking Refrigerant The air that flows into your car is cooled through the actions of refrigerant. This gas is converted between gaseous and liquid states at various points in the AC cooling process. Without this gas, your AC system won't work. Refrigerant gas can leak from a hole in a pipe, a damaged condenser or compressor, or several other places. The refrigerant gas is invisible and odorless, making leak detection more difficult. Our technicians will pump an ultraviolet dye into the AC system and then use an ultraviolet detector to highlight the area of the leak. Once we've found the source, we can repair or replace the damaged section, stopping the leak. Damaged Compressor The compressor in your AC system is a pump that pumps refrigerant through the AC system under high pressure. When you turn on your AC, you'll hear a faint click. This click is the sound of the compressor clutch activating the compressor. If you hear this sound but your AC isn't getting cold, you may have a refrigerant leak. You might also find that a damaged compressor works harder and faster as your vehicle moves. The increased airflow causes the compressor to work more as speed climbs, as well as work faster due to a rise of pressure in the compressor. A third possible compressor problem is a blown fuse, which has caused the compressor to shut off. Our technicians will check your compressor and repair or replace it. Our technicians can easily fix any AC problem for you. Contact us at DARCARS Ford of Lanham service center and we’ll help you figure out what’s going on with your AC system.
