Planning is essential to help prevent accidents or possible damage to your car. Several routine maintenance practices can be done to avoid bills and dangers on the road. Here are some maintenance tips that we recommend you consider:


Tire rotation, balancing, and alignment -
We recommend that you service your tires every six months or around 7,000 miles. Having your tires rotated ensures your tires wear down evenly. Balancing helps weight be evenly distributed across your axel, and alignment work ensures your tires are running perpendicular to the road. 

Windshield wipers - Replacing your windshield wipers is important for safety. It guarantees you can count on your windshield wipers to provide clear visibility of the road. We recommend having your windshield wipers inspected every 6-12 months. 

Replacing spark plugs - Spark plugs help in the vital role of being able to start your car! They definitely should not be neglected. While your spark plugs don’t need maintenance as often, we still recommend you plan and have your spark plugs inspected every 30,000 miles. 

Oil change - Having a scheduled oil change can be beneficial by ensuring your engine is lubricated and will not overheat. We recommend scheduling an appointment with us today to perform an oil change and get your car running smoothly.
