Summer vacations are over and now you are tightening your budget as you head back to work or school. Some drivers think if they ignore basic vehicle maintenance services they are saving money. However, once they start to experience noticeable problems with their brakes or steering, more than likely they will actually be spending more with unexpected and costly auto repairs. Keep your money in the bank and save yourself some frustration and stress by taking care of any car maintenance issues before you start experiencing problems.

5 important vehicle maintenance items:

  1. Oil – Make it a habit to check the dipstick several times between oil changes. If the oil level is consistently lower than it should be, inform your mechanic of the problem before the "change oil" light comes on. Don't just "top it off" with an extra quart and hope for the best. Potential problems, such as oil contamination or full-on engine seizure, could result from worn-out seals in the engine.
  2. Tires -- Tires pay a large role in a vehicle's ability to stop and turn effectively. Every 1,000 miles or so, check the tire pressure. Invest in a tire pressure gauge. You could be preventing an accident! The proper inflation pressure also gives you better mileage! Have your tires rotated regularly for uniform tread-wear. If they have worn down to the wear bars, it's time for a new set of tires.
  3. Brakes -- Brakes work together with tires to ensure safe stopping distances. Have the braking system checked every time you visit your auto shop. Watch for signs of brake failure, such as squealing noises, pedal softness, or vibration.
  4. Transmission – Because most mechanics do not road-test transmissions (except as part of a major vehicle maintenance service), it's up to you to report any signs of problems.
  5. Recommended Vehicle Maintenance – Even though scheduled car maintenance can sometimes cost more than is comfortable for your budget, it will save you money in the long run by prolonging the life of all the systems and parts that make your car function safely.
