5 Reasons To Keep Your Car Well-Maintained

Posted by

 

Thank you for visiting Corny’s Sales & Service Inc Auto Care blog. Today’s post lists 5 important reasons why you should follow recommended maintenance schedules or advice matching your driving habits.

1. Be Safe
A well-maintained car doesn’t put you and your passengers at unnecessary risk. Inspecting brakes, headlamps, tires, etc. not only will keep you from getting pulled over but may save your life.

2. Get Better Fuel Economy
Regular maintenance is an investment in optimum fuel economy. Inadequate tire pressure, a dirty fuel system, and a clogged air filter are just a few things which will reduce fuel economy.

3. Preserve Resale Value
How many used car buyers will pay full book value for a car with a filthy engine, clogged filters, and bald tires? Here at Corny’s, those items are inspected and replaced as needed before you purchase a car from Corny’s. 

4. Don’t Void Your Warranty
Your warranty claims may be denied if your service history doesn’t fulfill the minimum requirements recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. This does include re-manufactured engines and transmissions warranties. 

5. Save Money
Regular maintenance reduces the chance of catastrophic failures and repairs. We feature Amsoil full synthetic lubricants here at Corny’s. We match your oil service with your driving habits. 

Here are some Corny’s Sales & Service Inc service tips to help you remember the main items:

Common sense says all Fluids. Oil, transmission fluid, coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, differential fluid, etc.should be checked monthly. We can take care of all of these for you at Corny’s Sales & Service Inc in Knox.

Your Tires are your life attachment to the road. Air, rotation, balancing, and alignment. And while you’re thinking tires, inspect brakes and shock absorbers. We will take care of all these needs on a regular basis, track maintenance, and send you a reminder card/email of service due at no charge. 

The word “Tune-up” is not mentioned often, but spark plugs, Air and Fuel filter replacement, fuel system cleaning are still needed. By waiting till the engine does not run correctly or the “Service Engine Soon” light comes on can cause expensive damage to the exhaust system and possibly engine damage. 

This doesn’t cover everything, but here at Corny’s Sales & Service Inc will be happy to help you with the rest.
