checklistOf course when you buy a new vehicle you are going to want to do whatever you can to make it last as long as possible, or at least that’s how it should be. Extend the life of your vehicle with some advice from your El Paso area Kia dealer.

Knowing Your Vehicle

The better you know your vehicle the better you can take care of it. Educate yourself about all of your vehicle’s parts and components, and every feature that is available to you. You can do this by reading the owner’s manual, and by really paying attention to your vehicle while driving it. Keep the owner’s manual in your glove compartment for easy and quick reference should you need it. This will all help to ensure that you know what’s going on if something goes wrong with your vehicle.

Maintaining Your Vehicle

It is no secret that if you don’t properly maintain your vehicle it is not going to last very long. The better you maintain your vehicle the longer it will last. It’s crucial that you keep up with regular tune ups and oil changes. Always check on your tires, including their pressure and their condition. Rotate them as recommended. Keep an eye on the air filter, belts and hoses, the battery, and the spark plugs. Make sure your brakes don’t need servicing. Keep your vehicle clean and organized.
