The fluctuating temperatures of spring can have a surprisingly large impact on how much you spend at the pump every month. There are a number of factors that go into fuel efficiency, and utilizing our Jeep service specials at Heritage Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM Harrisburg can help your car run at peak efficiency. Our team of certified technicians is happy to share how climate and weather affect fuel efficiency, as well as how getting service can help you save at the pump.
The Importance of Tire Pressure and Tread
Drastic temperature changes often lead to changes in tire pressure, which affects rolling resistance and fuel economy. When your tires are underinflated, the engine must consume more energy just to move the vehicle forward at a steady speed, which harms fuel economy. During your service appointment, our technicians will provide balancing, precision alignments, and tire pressure adjustments to ensure that your tires maintain perfect contact with the road surface. Also, regularly scheduled tire rotations prevent uneven wear, ensuring that your Jeep SUV can handle the Harrisburg rain and snow with confidence.
Maintain Engine Efficiency with Fluid Changes
When your engine starts up on a cold morning, its internal components require constant lubrication to overcome friction caused by tiny moving parts. As the weather changes, old or contaminated oil can thicken, which makes it more difficult for the motor to turn over and reach its optimal operating temperature. Your oil and coolant regulate the engine’s operating temperature, mitigate wear, and ensure efficiency. We’ll make sure your car always gets what it needs.
