Maintaining Your 2024 Honda: Essential Services

Honda's first all-electric SUV, the 2024 Honda Prologue, is a great choice for eco-conscious drivers who need the space and capability of a mid-size SUV. Its three trim levels offer different power options and features, allowing you to choose exactly what you want in your next EV. more 1. EX The base EX trim and middle Touring trim come with single-motor front-wheel drive, which produces 212 horsepower. Dual-motor all-wheel drive is available. Front-wheel drive models offer excellent range, so you'll rarely need to stop to power up the battery. A charging status screen and status indicator help you keep an eye on your battery level. If it starts to run low on a long drive, the Prologue can regain up to 65 miles of range in just ten minutes with DC fast charging, so you can get back on track. A convenient paddle on the steering wheel lets you adjust the regenerative braking system. Dual-zone climate control and heated front seats are standard for ultimate interior comfort. 2. Touring The Touring trim adds LED fog lights to the exterior for enhanced visibility, and a panoramic moonroof to let in extra light and fresh air with the push of a button. Loading cargo is easy with the hands-free power tailgate, and roof rails offer extra options. Inside, the seats are leather-trimmed and steering wheel is leather-wrapped, and the instrument panel becomes illuminated. The six-speaker audio system is replaced with a standard 12-speaker Bose Premium Audio System to enhance your listening experience. 3. Elite The top Elite trim is exclusively available with dual-motor all-wheel drive, providing 288 horsepower and 333 lb-ft of torque for more rapid acceleration. In addition to the standard Normal dynamic drive mode, drivers can select a Sport mode. Self-sealing tires offer extra peace of mind on the road. The power folding side view mirrors dim automatically and include integrated welcome lights.

Regular Honda maintenance is the key to many enjoyable miles and years at the wheel of your Honda. As your Honda dealer, we provide all the maintenance needed to keep your vehicle in good shape. These are a few examples of maintenance we supply. more Oil Change Healthy oil provides numerous benefits for your engine. It lubricates numerous components, allowing them to work smoothly and protecting them against friction damage. Oil additives break down deposits that could cause blockages or engine damage, and they also protect the engine against rust. Oil degrades over time and needs to be replaced every 5,000 to 7,000 miles, depending on your model. Old oil contains dirt and other debris collected during movement through the engine. This makes the oil slower, reducing its cooling and lubricating properties. Our technicians will drain the old oil and replace the oil filter to ensure the oil moves freely. Once this is done and the oil sump is sealed, we'll add new oil. Engine Filter Replacement The engine air filter continually traps dust and dirt in the air, preventing these contaminants from reaching your engine. Vast amounts of air are required for combustion, and all this air passes through the engine air filter. Once inside your engine, the now clean air mixes with fuel to form the fuel-air mix that's used to produce combustion. The air filter will eventually become blocked with dirt, severely restricting airflow into the engine. The lack of air turns your engine fuel-rich. A fuel-rich engine is inefficient, as much of the fuel can't burn due to the lack of air and is wasted. A fuel-rich engine also causes damage to your ignition coils and spark plugs. We can replace this filter ​in minutes and the ​fuel-air balance in your engine will return to normal. Brake Pad Replacement Brake pads are a vital part of the braking system as they provide the friction that stops the wheels. They fit into the brake calipers, which are positioned above each wheel rotor. The calipers are forced against the spinning rotors when you hit the brakes, and the pads generate friction against the rotors. This friction is provided by the 1/2" thick rough material covering the pads. A pad's friction-producing covering wears off, and when the material's thickness drops to 1/4", the pad needs replacement. The material contains a metal spike, which becomes visible once the material has worn down sufficiently. The spike will scratch against the rotor, producing a high-pitched screeching. Replacing the pads is a quick process, and the annoying screeching will disappear. If you'd like to book your next maintenance, contact our service department today at Penske Honda Ontario.
