The Importance of Routine Maintenance

An article about routine maintenance probably doesn’t sound like the most riveting read, but at Mercie J Auto Care in Mesa, AZ, proper maintenance is something we believe in wholeheartedly. Routine maintenance is the key to making a car last for decades; if done correctly, your car will stay reliable and enjoyable to drive, and you will save time and money in the process.

Basically, you should follow the maintenance intervals outlined in your owner’s manual. Your vehicle’s manufacturer knows your car’s specific needs and provides for you a detailed list of maintenance procedures. Have oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad installations, timing belt procedures, and anything else your owner’s manual recommends performed when it tells you to do so. If your owner’s manual is vague or you don’t have one for your vehicle, don’t panic; our technicians know what your vehicle needs.

Routine maintenance is often overlooked, in summary because of the old adage “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.” When it comes to cars, nothing could be further from the truth. The trick to having a reliable automobile isn’t fixing it when it breaks, it’s preventing it from breaking in the first place. If something is worn out or aging, fix it first before it breaks. Many people don’t worry about bringing their car into the shop unless it’s broken, but more often than not, breakdowns can be avoided altogether if a vehicle is properly maintained.

Our technicians at Mercie J Auto Care are experts in the art of maintaining vehicles and are more than happy to maintain yours. With us on your side, keep your vehicle on the road for many long years to come. If you want a vehicle that stays reliable and lasts for decades, make sure you come see us at Mercie J Auto Care for all your maintenance needs.
