Cars need tweaking here and there to stay in great condition, and they also need to have their systems checked so any problems that arise can be repaired early. There are many essential maintenance services available at your local Honda dealer that you should get regularly. Below, we’re going to discuss some of the most important services you need to get.

Oil Changes

Oil changes are crucial to keeping your engine’s parts lubricated and free of excessive wear and tear. Skipping oil changes can make your engine stall or overheat, and you may notice strange noises or deal with reduced fuel economy, too.

Different models need oil changes at different intervals, so take a look at your owner’s manual. It should give you a recommendation of how many miles you can drive between changes. Make sure you also visit the dealer for oil level top-offs in between changes, too.


Battery Service

Car batteries have a finite lifespan of about three years. When yours is old or damaged, you’ll notice problems with your car’s electrical system such as dim headlights and malfunctioning accessories. Trouble starting the vehicle is another issue you might face.

However, problems with other parts of the electrical system of your car, such as the alternator, can cause the issues mentioned above, too. So, if you experience any of the problems described, then your dealer can test your battery’s health to see if it needs to be replaced. The dealer can also replace it when the time comes.


Tire Maintenance

Your tires need to be rotated regularly, and you also need to get wheel alignments. When the tread on your tires wears down too much, then you need to replace your tires, too. Your dealer can take care of all of these tire services for you, making sure your tires are always fitted correctly and will last you for many years.


Engine Diagnostics

There are many unique systems in the car. It can be difficult to tell what’s causing the problems your car is having, but the check engine light will turn on when there’s a problem that needs to be taken care of. When you bring your car to the dealer, we can run an engine diagnostic to find out exactly what the issue is. This lets the mechanic at the dealership swiftly and accurately fix whatever is wrong with the car.


Belt and Hose Replacements

Over time, the hoses and belts in your car get old and wear down. They need to be replaced when this happens, and mechanics at the dealership will change out these components when necessary.

We can provide the services above, as well as many others, to keep your vehicle in great shape. Visit Penske Honda Ontario in Ontario, CA to get these services regularly.
