While special circumstances might arise that require you to get car service every now and then, staying on top of your regular maintenance schedule can ensure that you get the most out of your vehicle for as long as possible.

What does regular automotive maintenance entail?

Regular maintenance on your vehicle includes taking care of small services that help to make sure your vehicle runs the way it should for as long as it should. As mentioned, it includes things like getting your oil changed, which should give you a great example of what regular automotive maintenance is. In addition to oil changes, there are a number of other things you should take care of and have checked often to make sure your vehicle and its occupants remain safe.

  • Short-term maintenance
  • Long-term maintenance
    • Check and/or replace fluid levels
      • Transmission, transfer case, coolant, wiper fluid, etc.
    • Check shocks & struts (50,000 miles)
    • Check spark plugs (30,000 miles)
    • Check serpentine & timing belts (50,000 miles)

We’ll check almost if not all of these things when doing a multi-point inspection, so we also recommend simply bringing your vehicle in for one of those once or twice a year. But staying on top of these, and any others that are mentioned in your owner’s manual, will help to make sure your vehicle runs smoothly and lasts as long as it can. Give us a call with any questions!
