Keeping your vehicle in top condition doesn’t just protect your investment—it also keeps you and your passengers safe. At Advance Auto Service and Repair in Kamloops, we recommend booking a preventative maintenance service call at least once per year… Our techs will perform a thorough check and see that there are no parts or fluids that might affect the safe operation of your vehicle. And our check may also help you avoid costly repairs down the road! This article outlines why we think these checkups are such a great idea:
Why Preventative Maintenance Matters
Cars and trucks are made up of hundreds of components, each working together to ensure smooth operation. Over time, wear and tear can cause parts to fail unexpectedly. Preventative maintenance—such as oil changes, fluid checks, and brake inspections— will keep your vehicle running smoothly while also identify any issues before they become major problems, saving you both time and money. Think of it like your regular visit to the dentist! You don’t want to wait for anything serious to happen!
Our Regular Maintenance Service Includes:
Oil and Filter Changes: Protects your engine and ensures optimal performance.
Brake Inspections: Keeps your stopping power reliable and prevents costly repairs.
Fluid Checks and Replacements: Maintains proper operation of transmission, coolant, and power steering systems.
Tire Rotations and Alignments: Extends tire life and improves fuel efficiency.
Battery and Electrical System Checks: Prevents inconvenient breakdowns, especially in extreme Kamloops weather.
Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore
Warning lights, unusual noises, or changes in handling are all signs your vehicle may need attention. If your tire treads look worn down, this is the best time to come in and get a quote on all seasons or winter tires. Ignoring these signals can lead to expensive repairs, safety hazards, and unexpected downtime. Even if you came in for a checkup earlier this year, if you are aware of any of these warning signs, schedule a visit with us.
