  • Bring a good battery charger with you wherever you drive so when your battery shut down, you can simply charge it.
  •  When you take your car to a shop ask as many questions as you can so you will know what caused your problem and what will help you avoid the same issue again in the future.
  • The life of your engine is in the oil, so make sure you change the oil regularly according to your manufacturers instructions.
  • Check your ties and rotate then so that they wear evenly. This will help them last longer and keep you from getting a flat.
  • Keep a record of all your previous repairs. It will help your mechanic to easily determine what might have caused any problems. Plus it helps keep your resale value higher.
