Every manufacturer recommends servicing their vehicles at regular intervals. This is scheduled maintenance or preventive maintenance. Such maintenance involves inspecting and servicing your vehicle’s various systems to ensure that they are keeping you safe and working to maximize performance. Preventive maintenance keeps your car working better longer and will save you thousands over its life.

If regular maintenance is not performed, it can compromise the vehicle’s safety and cost you in repairs and lost fuel economy. In the worst case scenario, your warranty claims can be denied, and you can be left holding the bag for any major repairs or system failures. Such major auto work can cost thousands of dollars, and without the warranty in tact you’d have to cover it all.
