Factory-Scheduled Service & Routine Maintenance
Have you had your checkup lately?
Just like your body, your vehicle needs regular checkups to make sure everything is running properly. Our technicians might not wear white coats, but we can assure you they are the best auto doctors around. Getting into a scheduled maintenance groove will help protect and extend the life of your vehicle. It’ll also allow you to detect and repair any minor problems before they become major problems.
What is scheduled auto maintenance?
Your car’s owner’s manual will contain a complete list of manufacturer-recommended maintenance for your vehicle, including the intervals at which certain services should be performed. For example, regular services like tire rotations may be recommended every 6,000 miles, while more extensive services, such as replacing coolant, may be recommended every 30,000 miles.
Most owner’s manuals recommend regular maintenance on the following:
Air filters and fuel filters
Transmission, power steering and other fluids
Battery, spark plugs and ignition system
Do you have to service your car at the dealership to keep the warranty?
There's a common misconception that you must get regular maintenance and service performed at the dealership in order to keep your vehicle’s warranty in effect. However, all Express Oil Change & Tire Engineers locations are authorized service providers who can perform scheduled maintenance without voiding your vehicle’s warranty.
Why is it important to keep up with scheduled maintenance on your car?
Preventative scheduled maintenance can help keep your car in the best possible condition, keep it running better and detect any problems sooner than later. Having records of regular maintenance can possibly increase the resale value of your car as well. In addition, if you have a warranty claim, your vehicle’s manufacturer could require documentation that you’ve been keeping up with your car’s recommended scheduled maintenance.
Schedule your appointment for scheduled maintenance and we’ll make sure your vehicle’s recommended services checklist is up to date. Our technicians can also provide guidance on any upcoming maintenance during your routine oil change every 3,000 miles. We look forward to helping you take the best care of your car!
