30K // 60K // 90K Mile Services

Extend the life of your vehicle with Manufacturer’s Scheduled Services 

Regular maintenance is crucial to extending the life of your vehicle and ensuring it runs efficiently and safely. At Auto Care, we specialize in providing comprehensive maintenance services at mile intervals required by the vehicle manufacturer, tailored to meet their recommendations and to keep your vehicle in top condition. In the past typical recommendations were for 30k/60k/90k service intervals. However, modern vehicles have enjoyed progress and improvements in automotive technology, which allows for longer intervals between visits. Intervals for some required maintenance can be up to 100k miles. 

Each vehicle manufacturer offers guidance on services needed, mile intervals, and time frames when it is best to bring your car in for scheduled services. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for information on what is needed and when.  Preventive Services like our Vehicle Health Inspection (VHI) help you stay on top of your car, truck, or SUV’s maintenance before small issues become bigger—and potentially more costly. A VHI during your visit to our shop can save you time and money and extend the life of your vehicle. 

The VHI provides a thorough, efficient, and customer-centric approach to monitoring the health of your vehicle, from bumper to bumper. Auto Care makes it a priority to provide you with the most advanced and transparent auto repair services. ensuring you are well-informed and confident in the care your car receives.

Early Scheduled Maintenance Services

Some of the first services recommended by your vehicle manufacturer are for thorough checking to ensure it continues to operate efficiently. This service includes:

Oil Change and Filter Replacement: 

We replace the engine oil and oil filter to ensure optimal lubrication and to remove impurities that accumulate over time, reducing wear and tear on engine components.

Air and Fuel Filter Replacement: 

Replacing the air filter ensures that your engine breathes clean air, boosting its efficiency and power output, while a new fuel filter helps maintain clean fuel flow, preventing engine misfires and stalling.

Tire Rotation and Alignment: 

Rotating tires promotes even wear and extends their life. Alignment adjusts the angles of your wheels so they come into optimal contact with the road, improving handling and preventing uneven tire wear.

Brake Inspection and Service: 

We inspect all brake components, including pads, discs, and calipers, to ensure they function correctly. If necessary, worn parts are replaced to restore maximum braking performance and safety.

Fluid Checks and Top-ups: 

We check all essential fluids including transmission, brake, coolant, and power steering fluids. Fluid levels are topped up, and we ensure there are no leaks and that the fluids haven’t degraded, which could affect performance.

Benefits 

• Preventive Care: Regular maintenance at 30,000 miles helps catch and address minor issues before they become major problems, potentially saving you from expensive repairs in the future.
• Fuel Efficiency: Clean filters and fresh oil improve engine efficiency, ensuring that your vehicle uses fuel more effectively, which can significantly reduce your fuel costs over time.
• Longevity: Early and regular maintenance not only prolongs the life of your vehicle but also maintains its performance at an optimum level, ensuring that your car drives well for years to come.

Battery Check and Replacement (if needed): 

We test your battery's charge capacity and stability, replacing it if necessary to ensure reliable ignition and electrical performance in all conditions.

Spark Plug Replacement: 

If needed, new spark plugs ensure reliable ignition, better fuel economy, and smoother engine operation by providing strong and consistent sparks for combustion.
