Travel Time Service Tips at Yark Mazda

Car trouble is frustrating, annoying, and inconvenient. Whether you're trying to accomplish your daily Perrysburg commute, you're running errands in Detroit, or you're taking a long road trip outside of Ann Arbor or Toledo, having car problems is sure to put a damper on your day. The best way to ensure that your vehicle is ready to go is to follow these travel time service tips.

  • Maintenance is Your Friend – Although bringing your vehicle to the service center is never fun, it's extremely important and will help keep your vehicle running smoothly. Regular maintenance can not only alert you to any issues, but can also detect any potential future problems you'll want to keep an eye on. Common maintenance services include oil changes, brake repairs, multi-point inspections, battery replacements, and more.
  • A Clean Car is a Good Car - Yes, it is important to keep your vehicle clean. On the outside, you'll want to have your car regularly washed, especially in the Ohio winter months when the roads are full of salt. On the inside, make sure that your vehicle is vacuumed, picked up, and washed when needed. This will not only create a better driving environment, but also prolong the lifetime of your vehicle.
  • Always Have an Emergency Car Kit (Just in Case) - If you ever find yourself in an unfortunate situation, you'll be glad that you packed an emergency car kit. This kit should always include items like a car tool kit with flares, a first aid kit, a blanket, a flashlight with extra batteries, nonperishable food, water, and anything else you could need. In the winter months, it's also a good idea to pack a foldable shovel and sand or kitty litter.
