Cooling System Maintenance for All Vehicles
Your engine runs hot—and without a properly functioning cooling system, it risks overheating, breakdowns, and costly damage. At Dorian Ford, we offer comprehensive cooling system service in Clinton Township to keep your vehicle operating safely and efficiently year-round.
Coolant, also known as antifreeze, plays a critical role in regulating engine temperature and preventing internal corrosion. Over time, coolant can break down, become contaminated, or leak—especially during seasonal changes.
Our technicians perform:
- Coolant pressure tests to check for system integrity
- Radiator and hose inspections to detect cracks or leaks
- Temperature monitoring to ensure your engine stays in the safe range
- Coolant flushes and refills with fluid specific to your vehicle
Whether you’re prepping for a hot Michigan summer or winterizing your car for the cold, Dorian Ford can help you stay ahead of problems before they happen.
Cooling system service is available for all vehicle brands, not just Ford. From sedans and trucks to hybrids and SUVs, we’ll help protect your engine from unnecessary wear.
Belts & Hoses Inspection
Worn belts and cracked hoses are some of the most common—and preventable—causes of vehicle breakdowns. At Dorian Ford, our belts and hoses inspection service helps you avoid unexpected failures by catching issues before they leave you stranded.
During every visit, our technicians inspect:
- Serpentine belts for wear, fraying, and proper tension
- Radiator and heater hoses for cracks, leaks, and swelling
- Connections and clamps for corrosion or looseness
Because belts and hoses handle vital systems like your engine, cooling, and charging systems, small issues can turn into major problems if left unaddressed.
Whether you're coming in for routine service or preparing for seasonal driving, we’ll make sure your vehicle’s belts and hoses are up to the task.
We inspect and replace belts and hoses on all makes and models—Ford, Toyota, Chevy, Honda, and beyond. No matter what you drive, you can count on dealership-quality care at Dorian Ford.
