Why your Car needs an Annual Physical

According to the Car Care Council, a nonprofit educational organization - four out of five cars on the road need maintenance right now.

Here’s the reason why your car needs a physical :

• Lower Repair Costs. Discovering a worn part early before it causes major damage will be less costly.
• Safety. A poorly maintained vehicle can cause you to have a serious accident.
• Better Performance. Well-tuned cars burn less fuel and provide a more comfortable ride.
• Cleaner Environment. Poorly maintained cars pollute the environment.
• Improved Trade-in/Resale Value. Well-maintained cars are worth two to three time more than neglected ones.
• Better Handling. Incorrect wheel alignment, worn suspension components and/or worn tires cause a poor ride and rough handling. Also, could be a cause for an accident.
• Better Budgeting and fewer Surprise Costs. When a checkup indicates the need for a replacement part you can budget accordingly.
• Dependability. A well-maintained vehicle is more likely to start… and less likely to stall or leave you stranded.
• Driving enjoyment. It’s more fun to drive a car that holds the road well and that’s dependable.
  Pride of Ownership. It’s said that your car is an extension of your personality. Keep it looking and acting well.
