THERE ARE BENEFITS TO REGULAR AUTOMOTIVE MAINTENANCE...
As vehicle owners that generally drive more than we walk nowadays, vehicular maintenance is unavoidable. Whether it's a basic oil change and tire rotation service, or something more in-depth like a timing belt and water pump replacement, all cars need some sort of scheduled preventative maintenance to stay roadworthy. The reasons to stay up-to-date on your car's maintenance, though, pay off more than we see!
To begin with, a properly maintained vehicle is fuel efficient. That means you will save gas as you go! Clean air filters, scheduled oil changes, fuel injection system maintenance and much more contribute to you keeping that gas mileage high as you go. Over the long run, the savings add up!
Additionally, regular maintenance prevents wear and tear for your engine, meaning your car continues performing at it's best. Even a simple oil change removes sledge build-up within your engine, ensuring bearings and critical parts move smoothly through nice, clean engine oil.
Finally, and arguably most importantly, safety and reliability are critical to our day-to0-day. When you get in your car to go anywhere, you want to know that you are going to get there without any issues. Ensuring your maintenance is current generally guarantees you can drive without the worry of a surprise stop because of your car. After all, we have things to do and schedules to keep, so there should be no reason to need to stop on our vehicle's behalf along the way.
