Whether it's time for an oil change, or you notice your engine is a little sluggish lately, it's best not to put off routine maintenance. Our team knows it can be challenging to stay on top of your service schedule in addition to everything else on your to-do list. So, we have some recommendations on some of the top maintenance tasks drivers need, along with information on why they're so important.
Oil Change
Changing your oil every 5,000 miles, or as recommended in your owner's manual, should top your vehicle upkeep list. Going too long between oil changes leads to gunky oil that can't provide the lubrication your engine's moving parts need. This means your engine has to work extra hard, making it inefficient and sluggish. It could even result in a breakdown on the side of a Mentor, Ohio road or an expensive repair.
Tire Care
There are many things to be aware of when it comes to tire care. Checking your tire pressure every so often is a good habit to get into, as driving on improperly inflated tires causes excess wear and can be dangerous. Regular tire rotations provide even wear and lengthen the lifespan of your tires. If your treads are too worn, they can't provide the traction needed to traverse Conneaut, Ohio roads safely.

Brake Inspection and Repair
Another key to safety for drivers is a well-working brake system. Our crew can inspect your brakes for issues like worn pads or rotors. Be sure to schedule repair if you notice squealing, grinding, or pulling to one side.
