Today, more and more women are living at a hectic pace. Many
work full-time, they take their kids to daycare and after-school activities and
more than ever they are responsible for the care of the household’s vehicle
maintenance and repairs. While car care
has traditionally been considered a responsibility of the man of the house,
much like taking out the trash and cutting the grass, research by the Car Care
Council shows that women represent 60 percent of automotive service customers
in North America.
To help keep these busy women on the go, we encourage them to
visit their closest West Side Tire and Service location in Youngstown,
Austintown or Niles to help ensure that their vehicle is up to date on its
maintenance needs. Our maintenance inspections can point out items needing
service or repair that can help a vehicle run better, last longer, retain its
value and provide optimal safety and security.
We have the expertise, knowledge and technology to make sure
your vehicle is properly cared for with maintenance that can help reduce
problems down the road. Here are just a
few safety and maintenance tips we recommend our customers have checked
quarterly to keep their vehicles running at peak condition year-round.
In addition to performing a visual inspection of your tires, let
us inspect these key items to help keep you safe on the road:
Batteries: A weak or dead battery can leave you
stranded during some of the coldest times of the year.
Headlamps: Properly aimed headlamps are a must
for optimizing your visibility - both your seeing and you being seen.
Brakes: Our expert inspection can determine
whether your brakes are functioning properly providing full stopping
capability.
Windshield wipers: Old or worn windshield wipers can
lead to poor visibility in adverse weather conditions.
Oil: Change your oil and filter at
intervals recommended in your owner's manual to minimize engine wear and reduce
the possibility of internal damage.
Belts and hoses: A broken belt or ruptured hose can
cause costly engine damage and travel delays.
Fluid levels: Improper fluid levels - including
coolant, oil, power steering, transmission, brake fluid and even washer solvent
- can negatively affect vehicle durability, performance and safety.
At West Side Tire and Service, we understand the intense time
pressure today's women are under and we are committed to providing them the
highest quality service and maintenance they can trust. As a family-owned and operated business, we
know the importance of maintaining a service relationship built on quality
craftsmanship and fair prices to keep you and your family safe and on the road.
