The transition to electric vehicles introduces a new set of maintenance requirements, distinct from traditional gasoline-powered cars. At Moose Jaw Ford, we're here to guide you through the intricacies of EV maintenance, ensuring your vehicle continues to deliver exceptional performance and longevity.

 

The Core of EV Maintenance: Battery Management

 

Your EV's battery is its powerhouse, and proper care is critical for sustaining its health and functionality. Avoiding extreme temperature exposure and cautious use of rapid charging stations are pivotal strategies for prolonging battery life. Regular charging practices, aiming for an 85- to 90-percent charge, can also significantly benefit the longevity of your EV's battery, making it a cornerstone of EV maintenance.

 

Comprehensive Maintenance Strategies

 

EV maintenance encompasses a wide array of services to keep your vehicle running smoothly. From tire rotations and multi-point inspections to brake services and battery inspections, these maintenance tasks at 16,000 and 32,000 kilometres intervals are vital. Incorporating services like lubrication of moving parts and cabin air filter replacements into your maintenance plan is equally important for the overall health of your EV.

 

Advanced Cooling and Fluid Checks

 

Maintaining the cooling system and fluids in your EV is essential for efficient operation. Moose Jaw Ford emphasizes the importance of routine checks of the cooling system and fluid levels, ensuring that your EV's powertrain stays within optimal temperature ranges for peak performance.

 

Prioritizing Brakes and Tires
