Our tips are quite simple, but if you follow our advice, you can expect your used car to last for a long time.
Stick to a Routine Maintenance Schedule
Your car is going to need certain types of maintenance, like oil changes and tire rotations, at certain times. It's wise to know when you'll need these services and schedule them accordingly. Routine maintenance keeps your car in top shape and can help you avoid more mechanical problems down the line.
Don't Delay Service
If you think that you need some type of maintenance or service, don't delay your trip to our Dodge service center. A small mechanical problem can become a larger, more expensive issue quite quickly.
Let's take the oil change as an example. If you're due for an oil change or you notice signs that you need new oil, like the “check engine” light turning on or a reduction in your fuel efficiency, you need to schedule a service appointment right away. Putting off that oil change can result in engine damage that could shorten the life of your vehicle. An oil change is a quick and inexpensive service. Engine repair is far more costly.
Drive Safely
Safe driving behaviors can also help your used car last longer. Driving safely can reduce your chances of getting into a collision that could total your vehicle. Aggressive driving behaviors, like speeding and stopping short, can also wear down crucial components in your vehicle, leading to higher care costs and a potentially shorter life for your used car.
