In 2018, Ford has released a program where a PMS or preventive maintenance schedule will be reduced for Ford vehicles from four times a year to two. The new schedule requires the PMS to be done every 6 months or every 10,000 kilometers, whichever comes first. This is great news for Ford vehicle owners because it seems the price of PMS – money, and of course, time – is reduced in half, without sacrificing the checking up on the performance of Ford vehicles.

For the Ford Everest, a similar scheme is adopted, but as a new vehicle, or to some reports, depending on your Ford agent (so choose your agent wisely), a free PMS of three years is offered to be included already in your vehicle purchase. Some reports of owners say that the free PMS may sometimes be equivalent to free PMS labor cost only, meaning you'll pay for the oil and parts and stuff. Still, this is a good deal.

As the new generation of Ford Everest rolls out, you wouldn't want it to be serviced anywhere else but the dealership. Some people think the casa costs more than other shops but aside from the basic service, one pays for the expertise of the Ford mechanics, and with the new PMS scheme, you worry less and pay less. Now that's a deal.
