Many are the times when we forget that our cars just like our bodies are complex machines. With this complexity comes the need for regular replacement or maintenance. Mostly we only remember to deal with parts and forget the fluids that are important in the functioning of these components.

There are different fluids in a car as mentioned below together with their functions and when they should be replaced.

• Engine oil. It is mainly used in lubricating the moving parts within the engine thus preventing corrosion. It should be changed at least after 3,000 miles, depending on your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
• Power steering fluid. It protects the power steering and gear unit components from grinding against each other. Needs to be checked at least once every month.
• Coolant. It helps in regulating the heat in the radiator making it avoid overheating.
• Braking fluid. It moves the different parts of the braking system. It should be replaced once in every two years.

If you have any queries, visit our dealership today.

Tire rotation is a very important and often overlooked aspect of vehicle maintenance. Rotating your tires means switching your tires from one location to another, such as left to right and back to front. But why is this simple task so important to the upkeep of your vehicle?

When driving, your front and back tires often wear down unevenly from each other. The main reason you want to rotate your tires is to avoid this from happening. Your front tires often wear down much quicker and unevenly than the back set, so rotating your tires can help prevent this. Simply rotating your tires can add thousands of miles onto your current set of tires before they need to be replaced again. Not only will it save you money in the long run, but it can also help to make your ride much smoother, and can even make your trips safer and avoid any auto accidents that would lead to medical assistance.

Schedule a routine tire rotation with your next oil change at Winner Ford in Dover, Delaware!

Researchers hack a self-driving car by putting stickers on street signs: https://t.co/HvPj3aVCsR pic.twitter.com/BHbp1wSf9j

— Autoblog (@therealautoblog) August 18, 2017

Hackers have already proven they can exploit security loopholes in vehicles with internet connectivity and computerized controls. It’s one of the biggest concerns critics have of self-driving cars. Once we put our safety in the hands of machines, black hats can put us in danger from behind their keyboards.

It gets even worse than that, though.

A recent paper published by computer scientists from University of Washington, University of Michigan, Stony Brook University, and University of California Berkeley demonstrated a technique hackers could use to attack autonomous cars using road signs.

Stop signs with strategically-placed stickers, made to look like graffiti art reading “LOVE” and “HATE” were able to confuse the vehicle’s sensors into thinking a Stop sign was a 45 MPH sign.

What’s the good news here?

These white-hat hackers conducted this research so automakers could use it in making their autonomous vehicles impervious to malicious hacking. It’s going to be a long time before we see Ford models so intelligent their drivers can take their eyes off the road, so this preemptive strike against hacking is really a victory for the future of advanced vehicle security.
