Drive With Care

The first step to making your car last starts with you. The way you drive will affect how long your car will last. Don’t make sudden stops, turns, or accelerations. These sudden movements are fine on occasion but keep it out of your daily driving behaviors. They can cause a lot of unnecessary wear and tear on your engine, suspension, brakes, and tires.

Keep It Clean

We are all guilty of letting that fast food bag hang out in the back seat to long, but keeping your interior and exterior of your car clean can extend its life.  Waxing will prolong the life of your paint and a clean interior, free of stains and odors, will keep you happy driving it.

Shelter Your Car

Just like waxing, keeping your vehicle in a garage or under a cover can prolong the life of your paint.  It also helps keep your lights from fogging and getting damaged in the weather. The better looking your car is the longer you will keep it and enjoy it.

Preventative Maintenance

Get on a good schedule with your mechanic and have regular maintenance on your vehicle. That means frequent oil changes, tire rotations, wheel alignments, and an array of other auto repairs that your vehicle needs to perform and have a healthy lifespan.

No vehicle will last forever, but you can significantly extend the life of your car with good care.  United Tires & Service offers an extensive list of auto repairs and even offers a preventative maintenance car service.  Come in today so we can help you make your car last!
