I've only had mine 2024 Premier eAWD since April (23500 miles, CPO) and I've hit the 30000 miles. It came with new tires and new cabin filter

Is a brake fluid flush necessary at this point? CPO just has fluid checked. Is there anything else that must be done?

And how often do you rotate tires? 5k, 10k

Thanks in advance. I tried searching and it sent me back to the good old days of 2022

There are cheap testers out there that can tell you if the water content is too high (over 2%, flush the brake fluid now!). See if the fluid is still clear / light yellow (if any other color, flush it). Otherwise, it’s a good idea to flush it every three years or 30,000 miles. Brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air, so brake usage is irrelevant to how often you should change it.

Your additional service schedule will specify how often to make this preventative brake fluid change, in UK it’s 2-yearly, I thought I’ve seen it written that in US it’s 3-yrs, never seen a mileage specified.

We don’t froth too much about tyre rotations here in UK.

In my experience I've had the best longevity rotating every 5k.

The worst part of the service is the notification.
Ford says it stays on your Ford Pass until after 31,000miles.
I got mine done a month ago at 29k and still haven't passed 31k to get the notification to disappear.

Ha! I just found on the wrench part of the app, click on the service, scroll down and mark completed. Reply if that doesn't work.

I have 57k on a 2022 premium RWD and rotated the tires once at 10k. The rear tires are finally starting to look like they have more tread than the fronts. Tire rotation is a dealership grift.

This is a link to the manual with AI functionality:

You can also get to it from fordpass following the wrench icon and scrolling all the way down.

@GNMONKE even when you ask people here very simple questions, you’ll get random answers. Your question has a single right answer from ford. I’d stick to it. I (like most people here) don’t follow it because I operate under a different set of circumstances (have winter and summer tires). But my case doesn’t apply to you. So the answer is yes, change fluid every three years and rotate tires every 10k miles. The tester in my practical experience is highly inaccurate and you don’t want to take a chance on brakes of a performance vehicle. Also, the idea that tire rotations are less important in some countries than others is preposterous.

Free at Discount Tire, and necessary. Try MEASURING THE TREAD with a depth gauge vs looking at it. If you can see the difference, you should have rotated long ago...
