Preventive Maintenance Inspections

A preventive maintenance inspection is a thorough examination of your vehicle to identify and address potential issues before they become major problems. This includes checking various components such as the engine, brakes, tires, fluids, and electrical systems to ensure they are in good working condition and to prevent unexpected breakdowns.

It's recommended to schedule preventive maintenance inspections at least once a year or every 10,000 to 15,000 miles, whichever comes first. However, the frequency may vary based on your vehicle's make and model, driving habits, and manufacturer recommendations. Refer to your owner's manual for specific guidelines.

Regular preventive maintenance inspections can extend the lifespan of your vehicle, improve its performance, and enhance safety. They help identify and fix minor issues before they escalate into costly repairs, ensure your vehicle runs efficiently, and maintain its resale value. Regular inspections also provide peace of mind knowing that your vehicle is in optimal condition.

A preventive maintenance inspection typically includes checking and replacing engine oil and filters, inspecting brakes, tires, and suspension, checking and topping off fluids, inspecting the battery and electrical system, and assessing the exhaust and cooling systems. It may also include inspecting belts, hoses, and other vital components to ensure they are free of wear and damage.
