WHAT IS ROUTINE VEHICLE MAINTENANCE & WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Routine vehicle maintenance is the meticulous care that your coupe, sedan, sports-car, hatchback, wagon, crossover, SUV, minivan or pickup truck truly needs to stay happy and healthy for as many miles as possible. Some of the recommended regularly-scheduled maintenance tasks indeed seem quite insignificant and minor at first, however, they genuinely go a very long way when trying to prevent a major service-issue or breakdown along the side of the road in Indiana one day!
Your car as well as your wallet will be very thankful that you kept vehicle maintenance and proper car-services in mind.

HOW OFTEN DO I HAVE TO SERVICE MY VEHICLE?
By proactively keeping up with routine vehicle maintenance for your ride, your service visits and also your repair costs alike will be dramatically reduced as a direct result. However, it's a tough call to make when predicting precisely what kind of time-interval between service visits you should expect, because it all entirely depends on the make and model that you drive. Your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) will provide you with factory-recommended services clearly listed in your driver's manual, with the appropriate number of miles you can safely drive in between service appointments. Play it safe and always follow what the experts say.
Can I Bring My Automobile Anywhere For Servicing & Maintenance?
Sure, you can visit just any old body-shop or service center in the Westfield and Fishers area - we just really wouldn’t recommend it, and neither does your OEM. You should only work with a service department that is fully-certified, has the latest servicing equipment, and only employs factory-trained technicians with tons of experience.
And that is exactly what we offer here at Ed Martin Buick GMC!
