Early detection of a weak battery, poorly charging alternator or failing starter will certainly prevent a very inconvenient moment from occurring due to a vehicle that will not crank or breaks down out on the road.
Choose from both synthetic and conventional motor oils.

Average yearly oil changes = approximately $150 and the cost of not maintaining your vehicle's engine = approximately $4,000 at a minimum.
Smooth driving is a balancing act that requires getting the wheels and tires to spin at high speeds without vibrations. That’s not a slam dunk; a dirty little secret about car wheels and tires is that they usually aren’t perfectly round, even when brand new.

Your car has a battery, but if it were solely responsible for powering the ignition and starter along with all the accessories, it would go dead in a matter of minutes.

Those clunking and bumping noises, increased steering effort, abnormal tire wear, unstable handling or lack of responsiveness can all be signs that you have steering or suspension system issues that may be a serious safety concern.

Clutch, Transmission, driveshaft, axle shafts, differentials, wheel bearings and hubs are just part of the components it takes to get that engine power to the wheels. A lot of these items are out of sight and out of mind to the vehicle owner until they fail. A lot of times our trained technicians can spot the impending failure long before it leaves you stranded. There are also numerous preventive maintenance measures that can be taken to save the expense of a costly repair.
Preventive maintenance plays a huge role in reducing the need for mechanical repairs to the engine. Even the most stringent maintenance schedule will not prevent gaskets or seals from failing over time, or poorly manufactured internal engine components from failing. The key to keeping that repair cost down is early detection so that one small issue does not have time to become that major repair that we all dread.
One of the most important parts of any vehicle is the tires. Tires are constantly in contact with the road and provide a great deal of stability and reliability to the driver. When considering whether to buy new tires for a vehicle, it is important to think past the initial cost of the tires and to consider the important reasons having good tires on your vehicle is vital. Drivers who risk driving with bad tires are also putting themselves at risk of being stranded or in an accident.
