For your convenience, we've put together a list of tips regarding common automotive issues and repairs. The first recommendation we have is to get rid of your gas-guzzling vehicle for something that's more fuel efficient. In addition to paying less each time you fill up at the pump, you'll have fewer expensive repairs with a more economical model.

Next, we recommend you check out our selection of quality tires for your vehicle. Quality tires offer many benefits:

• Fuel efficiency
• Improved handling
• Better traction and safety
• Enhanced braking
• A comfortable driving experience

General maintenance tips by season include:

• Winter preparations:
• Make sure tires are in good condition
• Check your battery so your vehicle starts in even the coldest conditions
• Ensure the heater/defroster is operational
• Summer preparations:
• Are the brakes working properly before your family road trip?
• Service the cooling system to avoid engine overheating
• Refill the air conditioning with Freon to stay cool on the hottest days
