New Year’s Resolutions for Your Car

A car is a huge investment and one that is smart to maintain. Since your car cannot make its own resolutions to stay healthy it turns to you, its faithful owner, to make sure that every part on it is running at maximum capacity. So what does your car need every year?

Your car needs to get regular oil changes. They are generally every three months or 3000 miles. Mike Kefalas, the owner of J.K. Volvo, said, “It’s very easy for consumer to miss a service or miss an oil change or be 3,000 or 4,000 over. That’s a quick way to damage your engine.” Get your oil changed somewhere that will fill your fluids for free between check-ups. Then make sure to get your fluids checked regularly. You couldn’t function at full capacity if you were dehydrated right?

Resolve to regular check your tire pressure and refill tires if needed and repair any tear right after it happens. Schedule a preventative check-up for your vehicle at least once if not twice a year. Just like regular checkups catch human ailments before they are too far gone a car checkup can catch an issue before it becomes unfixable.
