Busted: myth without maintenance
There is a segment of the population in the Lake County area that is not committed to proper vehicle maintenance.
Now, your vehicle’s ignition system is electronic and controlled by the engine management computer. Spark plugs rarely foul and will last up to 100,000 miles. So tune-ups used to force you to go into Kraken Automotive for service, and while you were there, you just dealt with whatever else was on the list.
Also, in recent years, a large percentage of new vehicles have been leased in Lake County. These people plan to hand in the vehicle after two or three years, so they haven’t focused on the maintenance that helps a vehicle last longer. With all of this in mind, what is the benefit of keeping up with factory scheduled maintenance? Well, your vehicle will have better performance and better fuel economy.
The big advantage is this major repairs are avoided. And these are not just repairs that are a long way off. Engines in modern vehicles are much more sophisticated and have many parts that need proper lubrication. Missing just one oil change can allow oil sludge to start forming. Sludge clogs passages, robbing parts of needed lubrication. A costly failure could easily occur within two or three years.
Modern engines require more sophisticated fluids. Because of the different types of materials used to make auto parts, things like aluminum, plastics, and steel, different additives are needed to protect auto components from corrosion. These additives wear out over time and with use. Taking care of the little things now prevents big problems later. At Kraken Automotive, we take care of these little things. You need to take care of your vehicle. The need for proper vehicle maintenance hasn’t gone away for Lake County drivers.
conclusion
Contacting Kraken Automotive After-Hours Mobile Mechanic for your vehicle maintenance needs is convenient and affordable. No need to waste your valuable time sitting in the waiting room of your local repair shop for hours when all you need is a simple oil change, brake pad replacement or even other routine maintenance.
