Why should I have my car serviced?

Lots of people just fill up their car with fuel and kick the tyres every now and again. They forget that regular vehicle repairs and maintenance is a necessary part of owning a car.

At Steve Sorenson Mechanical – a Logan auto repair shop, we know that regular maintenance is a lot better than costly repairs down the road. Sometimes even the smallest of problems can create havoc if left too long unattended.

It doesn’t matter where you live in South-East Queensland, there are always more cars on the road – especially it seems in Logan. Auto repairs are the one item on our list that we can all do without, but sometimes they are unavoidable. The one thing you can do to reduce these costs is to have your vehicle regularly serviced, so any potential problems can be picked up early.

And if you are still not convinced - here are 3 good reasons to have your car regularly serviced:

1.    Safety: As a road user, you cannot ignore the safety of yourself, your loved ones and of everyone else on the road (including pedestrians and cyclists). It doesn’t take much time to check your tyres and brakes – at the very least. Imagine driving in heavy rain and your brakes don’t work and your tyres are bald - both of these could save your life one day.

2.    Performance: If you keep your car well maintained, it not only runs better but your fuel economy is much better. Old oil gets gluggy and prevents your engine from running smoothly. This increases fuel consumption and costs you money. So make sure you change your oil and filters regularly.

3.    Cost: Ignoring vehicle repairs and maintenance can turn simple problems that could have been fixed easily into very costly repairs. Well maintained cars also last much longer, saving you money on replacing the vehicle sooner than you ever thought possible.  

It doesn’t matter where you live in South-East Queensland, there are always more cars on the road – especially in Logan. Auto repairs can be a very costly expense that can be offset by regular maintenance and repairs of your vehicle.
