What to Expect From a Vehicle Maintenance Inspection

Every vehicle has a variety of components that need to be checked routinely. Many parts should be inspected every 5,000 miles or so — which can often be done together with your oil change — whereas others only need to be checked every 20,000 or 30,000 miles. Each component should be inspected at the manufacturer-recommended interval, as failing to do so can lead to costly repairs or replacements. 

In this guide, we'll discuss the common components of your car that must be routinely inspected, what they do and how often they should be checked. 

How Long Can a Car Battery Last?

Your car's battery is essential because it enables your engine to start at all. The battery feeds the vehicle's starter by bringing an electrical current that powers the engine. If the battery is running low, the vehicle may be slow to start. If the car's battery dies completely, the engine won't start and you won't be able to go anywhere. To avoid getting stranded, maintaining your car battery's lifespan is key.

How to Check Your Tires for Wear

Ensuring you follow safe driving practices is vital to keep yourself, others and your vehicle safe. Keeping track of your tires' tread is an essential factor to staying safe while on the road. Worn tires are more susceptible to punctures, provide less traction and are prone to popping while you're driving.

You can keep yourself and others safe by frequently checking your tires for wear and replacing your tires when they become unsafe to drive with. We've created this comprehensive guide to explain how a tire's tread keeps you safe and how to check your tires for wear.
