Car Care Tips
Brakes
To make brakes last longer, it’s important to avoid unnecessary wear. Sticking to the speed limit, braking early to keep from slamming on the brake pedal, and coasting to a nice and easy stop all help prevent the overuse of your brake pads.
Oil Changes
There’s an age-old debate about how long your vehicle can go between oil changes. It depends more on you than on your car. If you drive in extreme heat or cold or just drive a lot, you should probably change the oil every 3,000 miles. Moderate drives can wait until 5,000.
Auto Body
Nobody wants to have to take their vehicle to the body shop. However, you want to ensure you choose the right place when necessary. Read reviews, have a conversation with the shop owner, and get several estimates before you choose.
Auto Detailing
Even when your vehicle isn’t hit by another car, it can still sustain dents, dings, and minor imperfections. Think about routine detailing service to keep your vehicle’s coat of paint in prime condition no matter the season!
