Prevent Repairs with Vehicle Maintenance
Your vehicle’s owners manual gives clear instructions about how often it needs to be brought in for service and what should be done each time. Following these factory instructions is the best tool you have to prevent unexpected auto repairs down the road.
Most newer cars come with a built-in maintenance reminder system. These are usually based on the mileage that you’ve driven and will give you an alert on the dash when it’s time to bring it in. Make sure you listen to your vehicle when it tells you it needs car maintenance services!
Auto Maintenance for Harsh Road Conditions
Something that’s important to bear in mind is that you may need more frequent maintenance checks if you drive in harsh conditions. What are harsh conditions?
- Quick acceleration and stopping
- Heavy loads including cargo and full passengers
- Salty roads
- Dusty or dirt roads
- Extreme heat and humidity
- Below-freezing temperatures
- Roads with many potholes
- Mountainous and bumpy roads
For a lot of us, these conditions are pretty normal, which is why it’s important to get the advice of your local auto mechanics at Ally Auto Service. We’ll run a full inspection and get you all the information you need to properly schedule car maintenance checks at regular intervals.
