Where to Find a Ford Service Centre in Perth?

Finding a Ford service centre in Perth can be overwhelming, especially if you are new in the area. Fortunately, Ford Australia’s website has a dealership and service centre locator, which can guide you to these facilities.

Ford is one of the largest car brands in Australia and ranks 5th or 6th in car sales for the past five years. If you are an owner of a Ford vehicle, it will please you to know that it's now easier for you to have your car serviced, especially if it's still under warranty.

In 2018, the company extended its five-year warranty to unlimited-kilometre which is now standard across its lineup of cars and commercial vehicles. Before, the warranty only covers up to 60,000 miles or roughly 100,000 kilometres over the same period. 

In this post, we will discuss everything you should know about servicing your Ford vehicle in Perth or any other major cities in Australia.
​

Can I Get my Ford Serviced at Any Dealership?
​

No, if your car is considered new and still under the manufacturer’s warranty, then you are only allowed to take it at a Ford accredited workshop. Ford has a bumper-to-bumper warranty which covers 60,000 miles or three years on all parts. 

However, once this expires, you can now choose to have your car maintained in a private service company. The advantage of having your vehicle serviced in Ford dealerships is that they usually have the spare parts that your car might need for repairs. 

Both a Ford accredited workshop and a private service company offer almost the same car maintenance procedures, which includes:

• Engine Oil Change
• Tyre Check
• Brake System Examination
• Transmission Check
• Visual Inspection
• Air Filter Probe
• Examination for any Leaks
• Spark Plug Replacement 

Most car service companies also offer car wash and vacuum for free as part of their car maintenance packages.

How many Ford dealerships are in Perth?
​

Ford has an extensive network of Ford dealerships in Perth, Western Australia. There are several Ford dealerships in this area, namely:

• Lynford Motors in 300 Scarborough Beach Road Osborne Park
• McInerney Ford in 239 Walter Road Morley
• Midway Ford in 326 Great Eastern Highway Midland
• John Hughes Ford in 49 Shepperton Road Victoria Park
• John Huges Ford in 7 Forward st. corner Swansea st. East Victoria Bank 
• Range Ford in 1884-1892 Albany Highway Maddington
• Titan Ford in 192 Leach Highway Melville

Several workshops are affiliated with Ford that can help you in your Ford car maintenance. These companies are qualified to sign or stamp your vehicle’s service manual. Take note that you may lose the validity of your automaker’s warranty if you service your car from a non-affiliated workshop or car service company.

As such, always ask first if the shop has a certification from Ford, which allows them to service your car without compromising its warranty. Many of these companies also have websites online, which you can check to ensure that they are permitted by a specific car company to service their fleet of vehicles.  

Consequently, Ford has over 259 locations in Australia that are owned by some 197 independent owners or companies. According to the Australian Parliament website, Ford dealerships directly hired more than 7,000 people, many of whom work in regional and rural centres.

How do I contact a Ford Service Centre in Perth?

​

What Vehicles can be Maintained in a Ford Service Centre?
​

Cars that have been bought over the last five years can be serviced by these Ford dealerships, especially if their warranty hasn’t expired. The basic car service is usually free, but if you want to upgrade to a full service, the workshop may charge you an extra fee. 

Ford has a plethora of cars under its fleet from passenger cars to SUVs. The American auto company also offers commercial vehicles such as pickups and transit commercial vehicle.

Below are some of the vehicles under the Ford brand that are currently being sold in Australia:

Passenger Cars

• Ford Focus
• Ford Mondeo 

SUVs

• Ford Endura
• Ford Escape 
• Ford EcoSport
• Ford Everest

Commercial Vehicles

• Ford Ranger
• Ford Transit (can be customised into a van, cab chassis, or custom)

Performance Cars

• Ford Focus ST
• Ford Fiesta ST
• Ford Ranger Raptor
• Ford Mustang (has an R-SPEC variant)

However, do take note that the extended five-year unlimited-kilometre warranty only applies to Ford vehicles bought on May 1, 2018 and after. If you purchased your Ford unit earlier than this date, then it's not qualified under this program. Hence, your vehicle may fall into the previous 100,000 kilometre or five-year warranty. 

Regardless if you qualify for this new warranty protocol, you must service your car every 5,000 kilometres or what is prescribed in your car owner’s manual.

Perth is one of the places in Australia that has a strong concentration of Ford vehicles. If you own a Ford vehicle, please check out their Dealership locator to find out the different Ford service centres near you.
