What is Ford Mobile Service?

Let’s start with the most obvious question: What is Ford Mobile Service? Simply put, we come to your home or office in the Albany or Schenectady area or anywhere in the Capitol region. We’ll take your vehicle to our Latham service center, perform the needed maintenance, and return the vehicle to you. It is an opportunity for you to keep your vehicle in optimal condition and operating at peak performance, without disrupting your day or upending your schedule. And you can rest assured knowing that our factory-trained technicians will care for your vehicle as if it were their own. While Ford Mobile Service can’t accommodate every maintenance or repair need, most routine services can be performed, including:

  • Battery checks and replacements
  • Brake pad replacements
  • Filter changes
  • Fluid flushes
  • Multi-point inspections
  • Oil changes
  • Recalls
  • Software updates
  • Tire rotations

Some of these services can be performed onsite without having to pick up and drop off your vehicle. Our technicians will come to you with our mobile van and take care of the needed maintenance then and there. Contact us for complete details.
