Weekly Tips to Keep Your Vehicle in its Best Shape

Although our certified technicians are experts at keeping your vehicle in its best shape, there are actually small gestures that you can perform on your vehicle to promote reliability and to minimize problems.

Check Your Tires Weekly – Checking the air pressure of your tires helps to minimize the risk of blowouts and ensures optimal safety on the road. While every modern vehicle sold after 2007 is equipped with an onboard tire pressure monitor, seeing your actual pressure numbers can help spot a slow leak before it becomes an emergency.

Check Your Oil Regularly – Your oil is the lifeblood of your engine, which means you never want it to run low. Checking your oil on a regular basis can help spot problems before they become emergencies. We recommend checking your oil every time you fill up your gas tank.
