Pay Attention To Your Owner’s Manual

In your vehicle’s glove box, you will find the key to taking care of your vehicle: the owner’s manual. This manual was created to help you keep your vehicle running as smoothly as possible. Inside, you’ll find your vehicle’s recommended maintenance schedule. This will help you stay on top of regular maintenance, including oil changes, filter changes, tire rotations, and more.

Regular Service Is Key & Being Smooth

Your vehicle’s oil is what keeps it running smoothly. If it becomes dirty, it can affect your engine’s performance. Regular service — including oil changes — is key to keep your car in tiptop shape, so make sure you never miss a maintenance appointment.
 

Be Smooth

 
The way you drive can really affect the health of your vehicle. Driving your car smoothly will help it last longer. This means not slamming on your brakes unless you have to, avoiding potholes, and accelerating slowly.

To help your vehicle last, make sure you’re keeping it clean and protected. If you can, store your vehicle in the garage so that it doesn’t take a beating from the snow, wind, and rain. If a garage isn’t available, then store it under a waterproof cover. Take care of the cabin, too, and don’t let it turn into a mobile trash can. Clean up any debris that’s scattered throughout your vehicle, regularly wipe down the upholstery, and vacuum to ensure your vehicle stays like new for longer.
