WHY PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE IS IMPORTANT

Unfortunately, many car owners still underestimate the importance of preventative automobile maintenance. Some may think that the financial expenses involved is a lot to handle but in truth, taking preventive measures for your vehicle is a lot cheaper than trying to make repairs when they happen. Spending a little now can save you from a bigger expense and hassle later on. Therefore, preventive car maintenance measures are important because:

  • It prevents major car repairs. The reasons for major car repairs are the consequences of the owner’s neglect. Preventive maintenance is the perfect way to increase the life of your car and save money by not needing auto repairs or reducing the cost of car repair.
  • It prevents you from getting stranded on the road. An improperly maintained vehicle is quite unpredictable, but with preventive maintenance measures, you don't have to be worried about a tire going flat or your car starting today and stalling tomorrow.
  • Preventing your car engine from straining to perform basic functions such as startup and stop.
  • Increasing your gas mileage. It would interest you to know that these seemingly insignificant preventive measures can increase your gas mileage.
  • It keeps other drivers on the road safe. It's no news that when your car malfunctions on the road other cars are also affected. In fact, driving a safe car is your civic responsibility.
  • It provides peace of mind. You can drive your vehicle with confidence and security, and there's nothing more comforting than knowing you are driving in a safe car.
  • The life of your car, in general, depends on regularly scheduled tune-ups, oil changes, and fluid changes.

Considering all the above points and benefits, it should be quite clear that preventive car maintenance is one of the few things that only has advantages.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE MEASURES

Proper maintenance of your car can keep it on the road for many years to come. Preventive car maintenance should be taken as seriously as scheduling a visit to the dentist or doctor. They include:

  • Changing your automobile's oil and fluids according to the recommendation in your car's manual. There's no automotive fluid that lasts forever. Engine fluids such as the brake fluids and engine coolants need to be replaced as often as stated by the manufacturer because a well-oiled machine works better and lasts longer on the road. Failure to change the fluids in your vehicle can impede your car's engine performance and cause it to need repairs sooner than expected.
  • Replacing essential parts like belts. The essential parts of your vehicle tend to wear easily and should, therefore, be monitored and regularly changed. Your car's timing belt and serpentine belt should be changed every 60,000 miles and 40,000 miles respectively. You shouldn't wait until the belt breaks down, because when it does, it affects other parts of the car causing them to breakdown also; thereby increasing your car repair expenses.
  • Inspecting your vehicle. From time to time, give your car a once over to figure out anything that's out of the ordinary. Check the car lights, listen for any strange sounds inside and outside of the car, check the air pressure in the tires always and never ignore a leak.
  • Changing air filters and fuel filters. It is of great importance to replace your vehicle's cabin filters and engine air filters regularly. It saves you a lot of unwanted mishaps and also helps to increase gas mileage since the engine doesn’t have to struggle to breathe.
  • Balancing and rotating car tires. This should be done regularly as it ensures that the tires wear evenly and your car drives smoothly, again increasing gas mileage and lengthening the life of your tires.
  • Inspecting car batteries and other essential wirings for any leakage, shorts, or cuts. Many car owners ignore their car batteries. The batteries should always be free of any form of leaks or mineral buildup. You should keep a battery brush in your trunk for regular cleaning of the battery.
  • Replacing of spark plugs.
  • Wheel alignment.
  • Inspecting the transmission and driveshaft
  • Ensuring the working of your vehicle's cooling system
  • Cleaning of windshields and replacing of wipers
  • Regular brake inspection
  • Exterior engine cleaning
