How can I prevent premature engine failures in my Ford S-Max?

I recently purchased a Ford S-Max and want to make sure that my engine stays in good condition for years to come. What are some maintenance steps I can take to prevent premature engine failures?

Regular oil changes and using a high quality oil can greatly extend the life of your engine. Also, be sure to follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule.

Avoid overloading your vehicle and don't push your engine too hard. This can cause unnecessary strain and wear on your engine.

Invest in a good quality air filter and replace it regularly. This will help keep your engine running smoothly and prevent early wear and tear.
