There are generally two reactions to an illuminated check engine light: people panic or just hope it goes away. Understandable but wrong. It could come on for anything from a serious engine or transmission problem to a loose gas cap. Best advice? See your NAPA AUTOPRO expert.
The timing belt synchronizes the timing of your vehicle’s combustion process by regulating piston and valve movements that let in air and fuel, allow the fuel to burn and then let out the exhaust. A broken or loose belt can cause problems.
If your vehicle bottoms out when accelerating or slumps forward when stopping; if the steering and handling feel loose; or if you’re noticing premature tire wear, your suspension probably needs maintenance.
Even if your air conditioning still cools your vehicle, the signs that it is not performing properly include a lack of freshness, strange noises, odours, condensation in the cabin, oil or refrigerant leaks…
Regular check-ups will assure your vehicle’s reliability, safety and ultimate value. A service every 6,000 km is recommended for all vehicles. Plus, we offer additional service packages.
Properly rotated and balanced tires last longer. Rotation assures treads wear evenly. Balancing avoids annoying vibrations with your vehicle on the road.
If your brake pedal feels spongy or pulsates, the brakes grind or squeal, the wheels or steering wheel vibrate, or the vehicle shakes when braking, get immediate service.
