What is Ford The Works? A complete maintenance package, explained

Service interval Every 5,000 miles
Shop time One appointment
Typical price Under $100 before tax

Preventive maintenance is what keeps a vehicle on the road past the point where neglected ones start failing. Around Oklahoma City, daily commutes and hard seasonal temperature swings put steady stress on engines, transmissions, and brakes. Staying ahead of that wear means following a schedule — not waiting for a warning light.

Drivers pulling into our service bay often assume The Works is a quick oil swap. It isn't. It's a full health check: fluid services bundled with system inspections, designed to catch small wear before it turns into an expensive repair. Doing it in one visit protects your investment and your afternoon.

You can book through our online service scheduler, check current discounts on our service specials page, or call the service desk to speak with an advisor.

The package

What's included in The Works

The core of the package is a multi-point inspection that gives you a documented picture of your vehicle's current mechanical condition. Factory-trained technicians work through an up to 83-point inspection covering everything from exterior lighting and wiper condition to critical safety systems.

Inspection line items Status as performed
Oil and filter change — up to 6 quarts of Motorcraft synthetic blend Included
Tire rotation and pressure check — set to factory spec for even tread wear Included
Brake inspection — pad thickness measured, rotor condition assessed Included
Battery test — cold cranking amps and overall state of health Included
Fluid levels checked and topped off — coolant, washer fluid, and more Included
Belts, hoses, and steering components — visual condition check Included
Engine and cabin air filters — inspected for restriction, not replaced Inspect only

Filter replacement isn't covered by the base price, but catching a clogged filter early prevents restricted airflow to the engine and poor cabin air quality. When replacements are needed, we fit authentic components from our parts department so the vehicle stays at factory spec.

Scope

How it differs from a standard oil change

A standard oil change drains the old lubricant, swaps the filter, and refills the crankcase. That's a necessary job, but it leaves the rest of the vehicle unexamined. The Works pairs the same oil service with active safety checks — the things that tell you whether the vehicle is safe for the next 5,000 miles.

The Works
Oil drain, refill, and Motorcraft filter replacement
Tire rotation and pressure set to spec
Brake pad thickness and rotor condition
Battery diagnostic with cold cranking amp reading
Coolant, washer, and other fluid top-offs
Belt, hose, and steering visual check
Standard oil change
Oil drain, refill, and filter replacement
No rotation, so uneven wear goes unnoticed
No brake check; pad wear tracked only by feel
No battery test; failures arrive without warning
No top-offs beyond engine oil
No inspection of belts, hoses, or steering

Rotations matter more than most drivers expect: they extend tread life and keep traction predictable in a sudden summer downpour. Doing them alongside the oil service also lets a technician spot uneven wear patterns that point to alignment or suspension issues, which is how you avoid replacing tires years early.

Coverage

Keeping your factory warranty intact

Following the manufacturer's service intervals is a condition of keeping factory warranty coverage. Skipping scheduled maintenance or using non-approved fluids can put your bumper-to-bumper or powertrain coverage at risk if a component later fails from neglect.

Logged electronically

Booking The Works roughly every 5,000 miles means your vehicle gets the exact fluid specifications and certified procedures the factory requires. Every service is documented electronically, which gives you a clean, verifiable record — the thing that settles a warranty question before it becomes an argument, and that a buyer will want to see at resale.

You can confirm our hours and plan your visit on the directions and hours page.

Cost

What it costs, and why bundling is cheaper

Typical price
Under $100
One appointment covering the oil change, tire rotation, brake inspection, and battery test — before tax.

Paying for these services separately means paying separate labor each time. Bundled into one visit, the labor is shared across all four jobs, which is most of where the savings come from.

Shared labor
Four services performed on one lift visit rather than four separate labor charges.
Factory-certified work
Performed by factory-trained technicians using genuine Motorcraft parts and fluids.
FordPass Rewards
Earn or redeem points on eligible services to bring the long-run cost down further.
Documented history
Electronic records that protect warranty coverage and support resale value.

Our specials rotate regularly, so it's worth checking current offers before you book. If you have a question about a coupon or want to confirm what applies to your specific model, contact us and an advisor will confirm it.

Questions

What drivers ask us most

Up to 6 quarts of Motorcraft synthetic blend. Larger engines — heavy-duty trucks and high-displacement SUVs — may need more, and the additional quarts carry a small extra charge.

No. The filter is inspected for dirt and restriction, not replaced. If it's clogged, replacement is quoted separately for the part and labor before any work is done.

Electric vehicles have no internal combustion engine, so they don't need oil and filter changes. EV owners can book tire rotations and multi-point inspections separately instead.

Most gasoline and hybrid vehicles are due every 5,000 miles or six months, whichever comes first. That matches factory recommendations for normal driving conditions.

You get a report card — digital or printed — showing the condition of every system inspected. If something needs urgent attention or can safely wait, your advisor explains the finding and gives you a written estimate before any additional work starts.
