Where can I get my Ford tires serviced, repaired or replaced near Portsmouth, NH?

When it comes to maintaining the performance, safety and longevity of your Ford vehicle, proper tire care is essential. Your tires are, naturally, the connection between your vehicle and the road, which means they’re constantly going through normal wear and tear any time you take it for a drive. When the time comes for you to get your Ford vehicle’s tires serviced, repaired or outright replaced here in the area near Portsmouth, New Hampshire, bring it in right here to the McFarland Ford service department. Our expert technicians know how to make sure your Ford vehicle is operating at its best each time it hits the road. Today we’ll highlight the different tire services we offer and when you should consider having them done.

Eventually you will need to get your tires replaced. Perhaps one day they’ll develop a technology that makes tires more permanent, but until that time comes most tires are designed to last for anywhere from 36,000 to 75,000 miles or, depending on how often you drive, around six years. However, there are several kinds of tire services you can have done to help make sure your tires last as long as they should, and even repair them when necessary and possible. Here’s a list of possible services:

• Tire rotation; we’ll move your tires’ positions so that they were down evenly
• Tire balancing; we’ll balance the weight distribution of each tire and wheel to ensure stability
• Tire alignment; we’ll adjust the angles of your wheels to ensure they’re correctly aligned
• Tire pressure; we’ll make sure each tire is at the appropriate air pressure
• Nitrogen inflation; we’ll inflate your tires with nitrogen to provide many benefits
• Tire patching; if your tires are punctured, cut, or otherwise damaged, we can patch and repair them to extend their life when safe to do so (not always possible)
• TPMS service; if you’re Tire Pressure Monitoring System isn’t working properly, we’ll recalibrate to make sure it’s showing accurate information

The first four entries on this list are crucial to the life of your tires and things you should be staying on top of on a regular basis. You should make sure your tire pressure is correct on your own fairly regularly, using your TPMS if you have it or a tire gauge if you don’t. A good rule of thumb is to get your tires rotated every time you get an oil change, and you should get them balanced and aligned once or twice a year. Tire patching and TPMS service will only come up when necessary, and nitrogen inflation is a unique service typically used in high-performance vehicles. Feel free to reach out to our service department to discuss whether or not this would be a good idea for your Ford vehicle.
