AutoNation Promotes Car Care Tips During National Car Care Month

As April marks National Car Care Month, AutoNation, Inc., headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, is encouraging drivers to take a proactive approach to vehicle maintenance. This initiative aims to enhance safety, improve fuel efficiency, and reduce long-term repair costs for vehicle owners.

Christian Treiber, President of After-Sales at AutoNation, emphasizes the importance of preventive maintenance. “Small maintenance steps taken now can help drivers prevent larger, more expensive problems down the road,” he stated. Treiber also noted that a well-maintained vehicle might offer up to 10% higher trade-in value.

AutoNation’s service experts are sharing several maintenance tips to help drivers. Checking tire pressure and tread is crucial as warmer temperatures can affect tire conditions. Properly inflated tires can improve fuel efficiency by saving up to 11 cents per gallon and extending tire life by 4,700 miles. Regular brake inspections are also advised to prevent costly repairs and ensure safety.

Battery testing before the summer heat, replacing wiper blades, inspecting lights, and topping off essential fluids are additional recommendations. Replacing air filters can further enhance fuel efficiency and engine performance. AutoNation offers complimentary multi-point inspections, which include a vehicle status report and fluid top-off, as part of their service checkups.

AutoNation hosts complimentary Car Care Clinics at select locations, reinforcing its commitment to promoting safe driving practices and supporting families nationwide. These clinics are part of the company’s broader community-focused efforts.
