Reasons to Service at a Dealership | Toronto, ON

Routine maintenance is a big part of car ownership. In order to keep your Ford vehicle running well, you’ll need to keep up with oil changes, tire rotations, and more. Should you bring it to a corner garage or a dealership service centre like ours here at Downtown Ford in Toronto? Here are three reasons why you should service your vehicle at a dealership.

Certified Technicians

You can find well-trained technicians at any garage you go to, but if you bring your vehicle into a dealership, you know that the technicians are experts when it comes to your exact car’s make and model. They also receive ongoing training from the manufacturer. That means the technicians who work with you at Downtown Ford know exactly how your Ford vehicle should work. If you’re having issues, they have the expert-level knowledge needed to fix your car easily and quickly, helping you get out on the road faster.

Genuine OEM Parts

Bringing your vehicle into a dealership for service means that, should your vehicle need new parts, only genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts will be used. These parts are exact replicas of those that your current car uses. If you bring your car in for servicing at a local garage, they’re more likely to use generic parts, which aren’t made specifically for your vehicle.

Warranty Coverage

If you’ve recently purchased a brand-new Ford or a Certified Pre-Owned model, your warranty allows you to bring your vehicle into a dealership for little or no-cost repairs and maintenance. When a Ford dealership fixes up your vehicle, the parts and repairs will also be under a new warranty, giving you peace of mind for the future.

Does your vehicle need repairs or maintenance? Thanks to our service staff’s specialized training and commitment to quality, bringing your vehicle to Downtown Ford is the right choice.
