Maintenance Tailored to Your Vehicle

Every vehicle has its own maintenance schedule to keep it running smoothly. Take a look at your owner’s manual and chat with a trusted technician to figure out what’s best for your car. That said, here’s a general timeline you can use as a handy guide for everyday maintenance tasks:

• Oil Change: An oil change is the backbone of engine longevity. By replacing old, degraded oil with fresh lubricant, this service ensures your engine’s moving parts are well-protected from friction and heat, preventing wear and tear over time. Depending on your vehicle and the type of oil used, you’ll need this done every 3,000 to 7,000 miles. Synthetic oils tend to last longer, while conventional options may require more frequent changes.
• Tire Service: Your tires are where the rubber meets the road – literally. Regular tire rotations help even out tread wear, extending tire life and maintaining consistent performance. Balancing corrects weight imbalances that can cause vibrations, and alignments ensure your wheels point straight, improving handling and preventing uneven wear. These services are typically recommended every 5,000 to 12,000 miles, depending on driving habits and road conditions.
• Brake Inspection: Brakes are your car's most important safety feature, and regular inspections can mean the difference between stopping smoothly and an unexpected trip to the shop. With every oil change, a technician should check your brake pads, rotors, and fluid levels for signs of wear or damage. Catching issues early can save you money and give you peace of mind on the road.
• Fluid Replacement: Your vehicle relies on a network of specialized fluids to perform various functions, from steering to cooling to braking. Power steering fluid ensures smooth handling, coolant regulates engine temperature, transmission fluid keeps gear shifts seamless, and brake fluid ensures responsive stopping power. Over time, these fluids degrade or become contaminated, so replenishing or replacing them according to your owner’s manual is key to keeping your car performing at its best.
