Henry Ford Documentary Airs Tuesday 1/29

WESTLAND, Mich.- Just a few months before the 150th anniversary of the birth of Henry Ford, you can get a glimpse of this automotive innovator's life this Tuesday, January 29, 2013. Tuesday, the PBS Series "American Experience" will feature a psychological biography of Henry Ford at 9pm. This Henry Ford Documentary takes a different approach than the typical rise to fame story.

Automotive legend, Henry Ford, was born in 1863 and grew up on a farm in Dearborn, MI. However, the Henry Ford Documentary on PBS will reveal that, though a visionary, he was complicated on an epic scale. Sarah Colt, director and producer of the documentary, noted that creating the film was like peeling back the layers of an onion. In an effort to understand the emotional element of Henry Ford, she felt as if his life was very Shakespearian in some ways.

Catch the Henry Ford Documentary Tuesday 1/29 to discover the complexity of Ford's life as he rose to fame and helped forge the road map for life in the 20th Century.

To get your 21st Century Ford fix, come on in to your Westland Ford Dealership, North Brothers Ford, for our wide selection of New and Used Cars, Trucks, SUVs, and Crossovers! North Brothers Ford, located at 33300 Ford Rd Westland, MI 48185, is proud to be one of the premier dealerships in Southeast Michigan committed to exceptional customer service! Stop by or give us a call at (888) 806-7163, our knowledgable sales team will be happy to help!

Vehicle Warning Light Explanations

WESTLAND, Mich.- Since the first time you ever got behind the wheel, you've probably experienced your Vehicle's Warning Lights turning on a time or two. Sometimes the reason why your Vehicle's Warning Light goes off is not so straightforward so were here to help you out with a basic Explanation of Vehicle Warning Lights!

Service Engine Light-
Don't panic, if your Service Engine Light turns on it usually means that you need to maintenance your vehicle soon. So no need to race to your local Auto Service Garage, but be proactive and make a service appointment as soon as you can. The technicians at your service center will reset the Service Engine Light once your vehicle has received maintenance.

Battery Light-
If your Vehicle's Battery Light ever goes off, you should be a little more concerned. If the Battery Light stays on, get your vehicle serviced right away since the light may indicate that your vehicle's electrical system may have malfunctioned. Ignoring your Battery Warning Light could lead to engine failure.

Check Engine Light-
One of the more confusing Vehicle Warning Lights, you Check Engine Warning Light may not have a straightforward answer. The Check Engine Light could be warning you about a variety of issues,  as simple as not tightening your gas cap enough or it could indicate a more serious issue. Address the issue quickly, with an OBD2 diagnostic tool to read the fault code, or visit your local service garage and they can identify the issue for a small fee, or sometimes even for free!

Oil Warning Light-
Don't waste any time when your Oil Warning Light turns on, get your vehicle serviced ASAP! Usually the Oil Warning Light means that your vehicle's oil pressure is low. If you ignore this warning you could cause your engine to malfunction or be completely ruined.

Coolant Warning Light-
If your Coolant Warning Light goes off, pull over immediately. The Coolant Warning Light most likely means that your your coolant is low and the engine's temperature has exceeded the safe maximum. This causes accelerated wear on your vehicle's engine and can completely fry the engine if it is not addressed immediately. However, do not try to open the hood if you notice steam, let the engine cool off first.

Brake Warning Lights-
The Brake Warning Light meaning depends on your specific vehicle, so check your owner's manual for the exact meaning. For ABS-equipped vehicles, the ABS Warning Light indicates that something is wrong with the system so you should have it checked out immediately. If the light is blinking, the situation is more serious and could mean that your brakes are dead or dying.

Your Ford Auto Service Center in Westland wants to keep safe out on the road, so let us help you understand what your Vehicle's Warning Lights mean and what actions you should take. Don't forget that you can save on vehicle maintenance with our Oil Change Coupons and Brake Service Coupons.

WESTLAND, Mich.- With the start of the Detroit Auto Show this week and Ford's debut of the new Atlas Concept Truck, it's been all about looking towards the future and what the automaker's vehicles will offer in the coming years. It's been an eventful year for the company, celebrating the 150th anniversary of Henry Ford while continuing to produce top-of-the-line vehicles. But, this week is also a time to remember the past as Ford Motor Company Celebrates 65 Years of the F-Series Truck!

65 years ago, on January 16th, 1948, Ford Motor Company introduced the first F-Series truck to the public, the first post war product from the company. The new F-Series replaced the automaker's previous car-based pickup line that began production in 1941. The original Ford F-Series truck was special for its design that offered more space and better ventilation--"living room comfort". Built with one of three engines (95hp 6-cylinder, 100hp V8, or 145hp V8), the first F-Series lineup from 1948 included standard pickups with two wheelbase lengths, regular and heavy-duty models, commercial delivery trucks, and 42- to 48-passenger school-bus trucks.

This week as we enjoy and look forward to the future of Ford vehicles, we also Celebrate 65 Years of Ford Motor Company's F-Series Truck! Visit your Southeast Michigan Ford Dealer for all of Ford's current vehicle offerings!

Ford Atlas Concept Truck Auto Show Debut

WESTLAND, Mich.- We received a huge surprise this morning when Ford Motor Company's Atlas Truck Concept Debuted at a Detroit Auto Show press event. Before the new year Ford announced they would be revealing the new 2015 F-150, but it now looks like this new Ford Concept Truck may be our first glimpse at the next F-150!

The new Ford Atlas Truck is technically considered a concept vehicle, but with just a few minor changes this "concept' could move right into production. Built with a high-strength steel frame, and influenced by aspects of current Ford Trucks like the grille on the current F-150, and stacked headlights that resemble the Ford Super Duty, the show stopping Ford Atlas Concept Truck is closer to production than concept. Ford Motor Company has yet to reveal exactly which engine will be used to power the new Atlas Concept, but all rumors point to a "next-generation EcoBoost". The Ford Atlas Concept Truck Debuted at the Detroit Auto Show is loaded with new technology to make the truck more fuel efficient and useful to its owner.

Your Suburban Detroit Ford Dealership is your source for the latest updates from the North American International Auto Show!
