Preventative Maintenance
*Courtesy of the Automotive Service Association
Recent studies by the Automotive Service Associate have given a number to the fatalities due to unperformed or neglected maintenance. This number currently sits at roughly 5%. By following a simple maintenance schedule, you can not only extend the life of the vehicle but create a safer environment for you and your passengers. Please make sure to consult the manual provided by your car manufacturer for your vehicle’s maintenance schedule.
- Oil and Filter should be changed regularly, usually every 3,000 miles (this may vary by manufacturer.)
- Important fluids such as brake fluid, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, antifreeze, and windshield washer fluid, should be checked to ensure proper levels.
- Check to ensure your tires are properly inflated. Properly inflated tires improve your vehicle’s safety as well as improve your fuel efficiency.
- Ensure that your engine is tuned properly to have the best fuel efficiency.
- Vehicle chassis should be lubricated frequently to extend the life of moving components.
- Battery cables and posts should be cleaned of any corrosion, and battery fluid levels should be checked.
- Headlights, brake lights, taillights, and turn signlans should be checked frequently to ensure proper performance
- Windshield wiper blades should be checked for damage and replaced at least once per year.
- Engine belts should be inspected regularly to ensure there are no cracks or missing segments.
- Air filter should be checked every other oil change and replaced as needed.
