Does your vehicle have over 100,000 miles?

Many people are keeping their vehicles longer.  The economy has influenced that, but the fact that modern cars and trucks are more durable and reliable means that owning a high mileage vehicle doesn’t have to be a painful experience.

Consumers with over 100,000 miles on their vehicles often ask what service intervals they should follow.  Let’s start with the special needs of the older vehicle.

The reality is that time and mileage will take its toll.  

The engine and transmission will have more sludge.  The fuel, steering and brake systems will have gum and varnish built up.  There’ll be more dirt and contaminants in the fuel tank, and corrosion and deposits are more likely to appear in the cooling system.  In addition to this seals and gaskets in your vehicle will also likely start to dry out.All of this, plus normal wear and tear, means that your vehicle’s engine might not be as strong as it once was, so your engine must work harder to get the job done.

So, we need to compensate.  Consider high-mileage formulations for oil changes, transmission service, etc.  These special formulations contain additives that condition the seals and gaskets to prevent leaks.  They also have more detergents to clean sludge and other deposits.  They cost a bit more, but they’re worth it and will most likely save you money on repairs down the line. 

In general, if a service was recommended every, let’s say, 15,000 miles when the car was new, you should continue to get the service done every 15,000 miles.

Talk with your service advisor about the condition of your engine.  See if he thinks you should adjust your service intervals for oil changes or other maintenance to account for the older engine working harder.

If anything, following recommended intervals is more important in a higher mileage vehicle.  Skipping oil changes or other services can lead to problems much more quickly than with a newer vehicle.

So, have your service advisor help you with an assessment of your older car or truck.  If you haven’t gotten around to a fuel system cleaning, or replacing power steering or brake fluid, a differential service or transmission service – it’s time to start taking care of those things.  It’ll help keep you on the road for many more happy miles.

Here is a little about anti-lock brakes

A vehicle breaking in traffic with Accurate Automotive phone number (480)890-0409 and headline "A little about anti-lock breaks from your friends at Accurate Automotive."

We rely on our brakes to safely slow and stop our vehicles.

You’ve probably had the experience where you’ve slammed on your brakes and started to skid. When your wheels are locked up, you are just sliding over the road. And if the road is wet or slick or covered with gravel – you really get out of control. Steering is next to impossible. That is why anti-lock brake systems (ABS) were invented: to help you maintain control in extreme stopping conditions.

As mentioned, control is lost when your wheels lock up, ABS keep your brakes from locking – helping you stop while maintaining your ability to steer. Sensors on each wheel equipped with ABS, monitor wheel spin and compare it with vehicle speed sensors. When you are pressing on the brakes, still traveling forward, but your wheels are not turning, the ABS system steps in and modulates the brakes.

They ABS quickly “pumps” the brakes, not allowing the wheels to lock-up while still applying braking pressure. This is all done automatically without any intervention on your part.

You will feel a pulsation through the brake pedal and will hear a clunking as the brakes are rapidly being applied and let off repeatedly. The first time this happens to you, you may be surprised and think something is wrong. Well, it isn’t – so just keep your foot on the brake and allow the ABS to do its thing. In fact, remember the 3 S’s of anti-lock brakes: Stomp, Stay, & Steer. Stomp on the brakes, keep the pedal down, and steer as needed.

When you first start your vehicle, the ABS do a quick self-check to make sure everything is OK. The ABS warning light will briefly illuminate with all the other warning lights on your dashboard and then go out. If the system detects a fault, the ABS light will come on and stay on. Take your vehicle in for a check if the ABS warning light is on.

Proper brake system service is the best way to protect your ABS.

Replacing brake fluid that is depleted and/or contaminated will help preserve proper ABS operation and protect it against corrosion. Ask your Accurate Automotive service advisor if it’s time for a braking system inspection or service when you have your next oil change. 

You can also schedule an inspection and one of our ASE certified advisors will provide you with a printed detailed inspection with photos of your vehicle. 

Call (480) 890-0409 today!

Get your vehicle diagnosed at Accurate Automotive

If your vehicle is having an issue you can trust Accurate Automotive in Mesa, Arizona to accurately diagnose it.

We are a modern repair shop, our automotive professionals are ASE certified and partner our technology with our over 31 years of experience to offer you honest quality vehicle repair at a price that’s fair.

When it comes to diagnostics it’s important you trust your auto shop and we are proud of our over 360 Google reviews and five-star rating that gives drivers like you peace of mind in choosing Accurate Automotive as their full-service auto shop of choice. Imagine waking up one morning with a stomach ache. You pick up the phone, call the doctor’s office and say, “I’ve got a really bad tummy ache. How much will it cost to make me feel better?” Of course, you wouldn’t do that. You know that there could be a lot of reasons for your symptoms and that the doctor will have to examine you, ask some questions, and probably run some tests before she can tell you what’s wrong and give you treatment options. This same scenario plays every day at auto repair facilities. When the cause of the concern isn’t obvious, the vehicle will need to undergo a diagnostic process.

The typical vehicle has about 30,000 parts, including several networked computers and miles of wiring. Finding exactly what is wrong can be very complicated and take some time. The most experienced technicians at the shop are the ones that tackle the difficult diagnostic jobs.

Once they have determined the cause of the problem, they can work out the plan for how to fix it and tell you how much it will cost.
When you look at it this way, it makes perfect sense that, 1) the Service Advisor cannot provide an estimate before the diagnosis is done, and 2) there is a charge for diagnostic services. You expect to pay for an office visit to the doctor and for any needed tests before you can be presented with your treatment options and costs; same goes for your vehicle.We know it can be frustrating when something is wrong with your car and you aren’t sure what is going to be involved in getting it fixed. We’ll do everything we can to help you through the process; communicating with you at each step along the way. We have highly trained diagnostic technicians and state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to uncover the cause of your problems. We use quality replacement parts to help make sure you stay on the road after the repair is done. That’s our prescription for automotive peace of mind.

Our motto is “Friends… serving friends” because we serve you with the same quality and consideration we would our friends.

We understand auto repair can often feel like an inconvenience so we do our best to make your experience the best it can be. One of the ways we do that is by offering you a ride from and to our shop so you can get to work or back home and take care of the things you need to take care of while we take care of your vehicle diagnostic, repairs and future service.

Call (480) 890-0409 to schedule your vehicle service today.

How do I know when I need a wheel alignment?

Question:
How do I know when I need a wheel alignment?

Lee’s Accurate Auto Answer:
When a drivers’ wheels are properly aligned they all point in the same direction. When they are out of alignment, most AZ drivers notice a couple of things. First, the vehicle pulls to one side when driving. It could be slight or pretty severe. If your wheels have been out of alignment for a while, you’ll also start to see uneven tire wear – the shoulder on either the outside or inside of the tire is worn down more than the other.

A whole bunch of steering and suspension components are joined together. Everyday driving can cause drivers’ wheels to go out of alignment over time just from the joints loosening up. That’s why most recommend an alignment check every couple of years. Depending on where you live in Arizona or the conditions you drive in (off-road driving, harsh Mesa winter conditions, poor pavement, etc.), an alignment inspection every year at Lee’s Accurate Auto may be called for.

Suspension and steering components wear over time as well, which can lead to alignment issues for Mesa drivers. Of course, a big bump, like hitting a curb or pothole, can knock a wheel out of alignment or damage a steering or suspension part.

Your friendly and knowledgeable Lee’s Accurate Auto service advisor will check your tires for uneven wear. The type of wear provides clues for what might be wrong. Undercar parts are inspected for wear and damage. The alignment machine will provide a reading of how each wheel is aligned. The reading is compared with the alignment settings recommended by the manufacturer, and then the technician makes the necessary adjustments and repairs to bring your wheels back into alignment.

Now putting off a wheel alignment in Arizona can get dangerous because of tire wear: a bad alignment can chew through a tire pretty quickly. If you see uneven tire wear, if your steering wheel is off center or if your vehicle pulls to one side, ask your friendly and knowledgeable Lee’s Accurate Automotive service advisor about getting an alignment check and we are happy to do that for you.

What you should know about your engine air filter

Today we will educate you about your engine air filter.

That’s the filter that cleans the air before it’s burned in your engine. Many people in Mesa wonder how often they should change their engine air filter. The simple answer is “when it’s dirty.” That’s a function of how much air has passed through the filter, so your vehicle manufacturer will recommend a mileage interval for replacing the air filter. But you can imagine that how dirty the air is would affect how quickly the filter gets filled.

If you drive in Mesa where there’s lots of dust, pollution or pollen, your engine air filter will get dirty more quickly and need to be changed sooner. That’s why we check the air filter with every full-service oil change at Lee’s Accurate Automotive. Since we are in your engine cabin can visually tell if the filter needs to be changed.

Your filter can only hold so much dirt. So once the filter is full, dirt will pass through to the engine. This dirt gums up the combustion chamber, hurts fuel economy, and may cause damage. It can also contaminate the Mass Air Flow Sensor which will affect drivability and can be fairly expensive to replace.

A dirty air filter would also restrict the amount of air that gets to the engine, which hurts fuel economy.

We can replace your engine air filter with one that matches the factory specifications or you can upgrade your filter for enhanced performance.

Schedule your next oil change, engine fluid flush or vehicle service and we will check your engine’s air filter and let you know if it needs to be replaced. We believe in partnering with our customers to maintain their vehicles on the road safely for many years to come. Our motto is “Friends… serving friends” and we believe in educating our customers as we would our friends to help them stay in the know and in control of their vehicles.

At Accurate Automotive in Mesa, Arizona our motto is “Friends… serving friends” and we want to keep our friends in the know about their vehicles.

Have a maintenance mindset with your vehicle

 

We know we need to take care of our cars, but I often hear from people that it seems hard to remember to do it. 

We generally accept that many things in life require regular maintenance, but just may have not applied it to our vehicles.

For example, we water and mow the lawn every week.  And weed the flower beds and rake the leaves.   We go to the dentist twice a year, take our clothes to the dry cleaner.  Flu shots.  Taking the kids for a checkup before school starts.

So, people really are maintenance minded. 

They just have to learn to apply that mindset to cars.  I mean, if you never brush your teeth or go to the dentist, you’ll become painfully aware of your neglect when you get a big cavity.  Once the damage is done, we learn our lesson and start to take better care of things.

Unfortunately, people too often learn the hard automotive lesson when they have to bring their vehicle to their auto center on a tow truck.  So many times, a little routine maintenance would have prevented a breakdown.

Here’s something that will help:  The key to good vehicle maintenance starts with the oil change.  Think about it – when you go in for a full-service oil change, your tech will check all your fluids.  If one of them is low, he can look for the reason why.  If your serpentine belt is worn, he’ll see it and let you know.  Corroded battery cable – they’ve got you covered.  All of this takes a trained and experienced eye – more than you find at a quick lube center.  And they’ll check to see if your manufacturer has recommended any services at your current mileage. 

So, when you come in for an oil change, you get a visual inspection and a reminder for recommended services so you can avoid a total failure.  And remember that your service advisor can help you work out a maintenance and repair plan, prioritizing and scheduling the work to make sure you and your family are safe, and avoid expensive breakdowns.

Accurate Automotive offers honest, quality vehicle repair at a price that’s fair.
