Ron Carter knows oil changes. That's why we recommend that our customers receive an oil change once every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Although, some of our newer models can drive up to about 7,000 miles on one oil change. You can always check your vehicle owner's manual to find the mileage for your vehicle.
Your vehicle runs with many fluids: engine coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, motor oil, transmission fluid, and windshield washer fluid. You or our service technicians can check your vehicle's fluid levels once every 5,000 miles.
We suggest changing your air filter at least once every 20,000 miles or once a year, whichever comes first. If your vehicle is equipped with a turbocharged engine, you may have to have it replaced sooner than the 20,000 miles, depending on how much you drive.
It is a good idea to get your brakes checked at least once every 10,000 miles. If you hear any grinding or squeaking noises coming from your brakes or it's hard to stop your vehicle, be sure to bring your vehicle down to one of our service facilities as soon as possible.
Your brakes and brake pads work together to help stop your vehicle safely. You can replace your brake pads anywhere between 25,000 and 50,000 miles. Of course, this depends on your driving habits and the model of your vehicle.
Considering the various weather conditions and driving habits, your car battery should be able to last up to 3 to 4 years. If you feel like your vehicle is having difficulty starting, any of our service technicians can inspect your car battery.
Wondering when you need to get a tire rotation? You should get a tire rotation once every 7,500 miles or once every six months, whichever comes first. When you bring your vehicle in for routine car maintenance, we'll rotate your tires for you.
Pounds per square inch (PSI) can vary depending on what vehicle you drive. The PSI can range between 30 and 35 but you can always look at your vehicle owner's manual or the inside of your Chevy, Ford, or GMC model.
Tires are a huge investment and should be properly cared for. Tires can usually last anywhere between 35,000-60,000 miles before they need to get replaced. If you have questions about tire rotations or changes, be sure to reach out to our service specialists.
