Advances in automobile technology have almost eliminated the term "Tune Up". To put it simply, many parts that used to need regular replacement such as spark plugs, are made with components that last much longer and don't need to be adjusted and/or replaced regularly. Rather than a tune up, you should follow your vehicle manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule--by that we mean that at the very least, you should have your vehicle thoroughly inspected at each of the scheduled maintenance mileage points.
Following the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule is important for a few reasons. In the first few years of your vehicle's life, your warranty will depend on you following the service schedule. Beyond the warranty, bad things can happen if you ignore your vehicle's maintenance schedule—for example, vehicle manufacturers recommend that the original timing belt in most vehicles be replaced between 60,000 and 100,000 miles, if not and the belt breaks, you will, at best, have a car that will no longer run until it is replaced. At worst, you can end up with a completely ruined engine.
The fact is that preventative maintenance will always cost you less than repairs.
The team at All American Automotive will check the service needs for your vehicle each time you come in. After a thorough inspection, we will provide you with a prioritized list of recommended maintenance services based on the actual condition of your vehicle and detail which, if any, need to be addressed immediately.
Our technicians are always on the lookout for impending problems that can be addressed before they become real and costly problems.
