AUTO MAINTENANCE SERVICES
​
Routine maintenance is vital to the long-term health of your vehicle. Not only will regular auto maintenance keep your car running smoothly and effectively — in many instances, it will also prevent you from paying for more major repairs down the road.
At Colonial Tires and Wheels , our car maintenance services encompass everything from oil changes to state inspections to wheel alignments and everything in between. Don’t hesitate to contact us or consult your owner’s manual for a recommended maintenance schedule!
TUNING & BRAKES
What factors come into play when a vehicle goes from stop to start? Brake pads, fluid, rotors, calipers and discs working in unison all contribute to a rapid, clean stop.
​
Are all aspects of your car’s brakes in proper working order? There’s only one way to find out — reach out to our local technicians today! Our team specializes in more than just tires — Colonial Tires & Wheels is the one-stop shop for all of your vehicles needs!
CAR SERVICING
Following your vehicle’s factory maintenance schedule will certainly lead to a positive driving experience. That said, it is important to remember that manufacturer’s recommendations are just that — general guidelines.
​
It’s also critical that you become proactive by practicing preventative car maintenance. For example, driving style (constant stop-and-go traffic or long-distance travel), climate conditions (extreme hot or cold), and environment (dust, water, salt) also dictate how often you should maintain your vehicle. You may need to replace your air filter, brakes, fluids, oil, belts, hoses, etc. more often than the recommended maintenance schedule.
Don’t wait for your scheduled car service schedule or until you have a breakdown. Be proactive and save yourself headaches, hassles and the risk of dealing with major problems and costs down the road!
STEERING & SUSP.
​
Your car’s suspension and steering systems are responsible for bearing the weight of your vehicle and maintaining a smooth and controlled ride by keeping your tires on the road.
Without proper maintenance and regular service visits, you may find yourself experiencing one or more of the common signs of steering and suspension issues, including:
-
Steering wheel pulling to one side
-
Shaky, unsteady or off-center steering
-
Excessive bouncing during bumps
-
Intermittent control during braking and sudden stops
-
Swerving during lane changes and minor maneuvering
-
Diving during quick stops
-
Sagging in the front or rear of the vehicle
If you do find yourself dealing with any of the problems listed above, don’t wait to contact the team at Colonial Tires & Wheels !
