Coolant Service in Fairlawn OH
Montrose Ford Engine Coolant Flush and Replacement
Your Ford’s cooling system works hard to keep the engine running at the ideal temperature, preventing overheating in the summer and freezing in the winter. Over time, coolant (also called antifreeze) breaks down and loses its ability to protect vital components. That’s why the certified technicians at Montrose Ford in Fairlawn, OH recommend regular coolant flush and replacement service to keep your engine performing at its best.
We use factory-approved Motorcraft® coolant and advanced diagnostic tools to check for leaks, corrosion, and contaminants. Whether you drive a Ford F-150, Escape, or Explorer, our Ford Service Department ensures your system is clean, balanced, and ready for any temperature.
Why Coolant Service Is Important
Coolant does more than regulate engine temperature — it also lubricates the water pump, prevents corrosion inside your radiator, and protects aluminum components from rust. Over time, old coolant can become acidic and form deposits that restrict flow or damage gaskets. A complete flush removes these contaminants and replaces the fluid with new, manufacturer-approved coolant.
Routine coolant service helps prevent major engine damage, improves heater performance, and ensures consistent temperature control. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to extend your vehicle’s lifespan and maintain efficiency.
What Our Coolant Service Includes
- Full coolant flush using pressure-assisted equipment
- System refill with Motorcraft® engine coolant
- Radiator, hose, and water pump inspection
- Pressure test to detect leaks or weak seals
- Thermostat and heater core function check
We follow Ford’s service specifications to ensure your vehicle receives the correct type and mixture of coolant for year-round protection. Ask our team about pairing your flush with a tune-up service or fuel system cleaning for maximum performance.
