How can I tell when my car needs service?

Recommended service intervals are usually around every 12,000 miles, but it depends on the type of vehicle you drive, its model year, and your driving habits. If you need help determining when your car needs regular maintenance, you can always get in touch with our service team. We'll be happy to help you keep your car in excellent shape.

When does my car need an oil change?

Generally, cars benefit most from oil changes every 5,000 to 7,500 miles or every six months. Staying on top of oil changes helps your engine by improving performance, efficiency, and longevity. So, if you're looking to get more out of your engine, keeping up with oil changes is one of the best ways to do it. Fortunately, we offer quick and affordable oil change services at our service center near Fernly.

When do I need to schedule a tire rotation?

Preventative maintenance calls for tire rotations every 5,000 miles or so. We recommend scheduling a tire rotation whenever you schedule an oil change. Tire rotations help your tires wear evenly as you drive around Carson City, which helps them last longer and reduces the likelihood that you'll have to replace them prematurely. We also recommend inspecting your tires periodically to make sure they don't show any signs of excessive wear.

How can I tell if my car needs a wheel alignment?

The best way to tell if your car is due for a wheel alignment is to bring it to our service center near Spanish Springs and Sparks for regular inspections at least once a year. Otherwise, the most common warning signs include unusual tire wear patterns, your car pulling to one side, and a vibrating steering wheel.
