Winter in the mountains is no joke, and neither is the toll it takes on a mountain vehicle.
Take winter roads and combine it with the longer service intervals and the result could be unidentified troubles brewing under the hood.
That’s why Quality Automotive Servicing and partner shop German Import Garage, are stepping up to keep Truckee/Lake Tahoe drivers on the road and safe from trouble. I
Introducing the courtesy Pit Stop Service—a quick, no-charge inspection and fluid top-off to put drivers at ease and the vehicle ready for the road ahead.
Why do I need a Pit Stop Service?
1. According to these professionals, newer engine designs are prone to higher oil consumption. When you combine this common issue with longer intervals between service, it leaves drivers flirting with low on engine oil. If left unchecked, this can lead to severe and irreversible engine damage. During a courtesy Pit Stop Service, fluids such as oil, coolant and all-important windshield wiper fluid is checked and topped off if needed.
2. Road hazards such as potholes, snow berms, and road debris can wreak havoc on suspension, steering, tires and under body protective pans. Just as serious are those sneaky rodents that love to nest under the hood, chewing through essential components and makings nests. During a pit stop service, a professional will do a visual inspection of suspension, steering, hoses, belts, HVAC, tires and brakes. If you have a particular concern you can ask the professional if it can be checked out during the service. Be aware this is not a diagnostic testing for major issues and another appointment will need to be made for such a service.
“A Pit Stop Service takes just 10 to 20 minutes and will help
ensure the vehicle stays properly maintained between
regular oil changes and preventative services,”
says Gary Gunter, General Manager of the two Truckee shops.
