Why it is important:Preventative Maintenance operates like a normal checkup for your vehicle. It may catch problems prior to the issues requiring significant repair work. Doing preventative maintenance will extend the life of your vehicle and keep it performing optimally for many years ahead. Each automobile has specific maintenance needs, so refer to the owner's manual to learn more about your specific car, truck or SUV.
