What consists of a tune-up at Brown's Ford?

A typical tune-up consists of checking your vehicle's key areas and ensuring everything is clean and working properly. A tune up is a great way to prevent any potential future maintenance or to spot any maintenance that is needed that the eye can't see. Our Johnstown service techs tune up services include checking your vehicle's fluids, rotors, the belt and hoses, and more. In order to keep your car running the way it should, we'll replace necessary car parts like spark plugs, cabin air filters, and fuel filters as needed. In addition, technicians will also inspect your vehicle’s engine and analyze its performance and make adjustments to your car to keep it in its best, safe shape.

How often do I need a tune up?

How often you need a tune-up can depend on the age of your vehicle. Older used cars with non-electric ignition systems should get a tune-up once every 10,000 to 20,000 miles. Newer cars should try to get one once every 30,000 to 100,000 miles. Depending on the make and model of your vehicle, we also recommend checking your owner’s manual for the manufacturer’s recommendation. You can also bring your vehicle by for a quick car inspection at your Johsntown dealership and we'll let you know exactly what is needed! If you have questions about needing a tune up or curious about your “Check Engine” light, contact us about your vehicle concerns or schedule your service appointment today.
