How often should you get an oil change?

• Follow the 2016 Ford Escape owner’s manual for the manufacturer-recommended interval; typical guidance for modern engines is every 5,000–7,500 miles for normal driving.
• For turbocharged or demanding driving conditions—towing, frequent short trips, extreme heat—shorter intervals are recommended to protect the turbo and engine.
• With full synthetic oil, some drivers safely extend intervals, but regular checks of oil level and condition are essential to avoid engine stress.
• We recommend a monthly oil level check and scheduling service at Coggin Ford Jacksonville for on‑time maintenance and to keep warranty coverage intact.
