Just as a toddler learns, “The wheels on the bus go round and round all through the town,” we know that our tires are the means for getting us around.  A flat tire can create a temporary delay as our vehicle is grounded awaiting a change to a spare tire until the tire can be patched or replaced. Tires are perhaps the most underappreciated and neglected part of a vehicle. Think about it, your tires provide you with the grip or traction your automobile needs to keep safe contact with road surfaces.  CardinaleWay #MazdaSalinas offers auto maintenance tips to help keep your vehicle safe.

Regularly Check Your Vehicle’s Tire Pressure

As part of your routine auto maintenance, you should regularly check your tire pressure.  It is particularly important when there is a change of seasons.  Colder weather mean your tires may lose their pressure.  Conversely, warmer weather could cause your tire pressure to increase.  Overinflated and underinflated tires will wear out quicker and adversely affect fuel economy.  Tires that are not properly inflated may also create adverse handling conditions making for a difficult or even unsafe ride.

 

To check your tire pressure, keep a tire pressure gauge in your glove compartment and use it to check each tire’s pressure.  Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for the recommended tire pressure.  If the tire pressure gauge shows that a tire is underinflated, add enough air to reach the recommended pressure.  On the other hand, if you have a tire that is over inflated, you will need to release some of that air to reduce the pressure.

 

We Can Fix A Tire, Rotate Your Tires Or Provide New Tires

If you suspect a slow leak, or notice that your tire treads are beginning to show signs of uneven wear or balding, make an appointment with our Service department.  If it’s a leak, we can quickly make a patch to repair the tire.  We can also determine if rotating your tires may help even out the gentle wearing on your tires, or if it’s time to replace your tires.  CardinaleWay Mazda Salinas has a vast selection of the best quality tires available at a competitive price.

 

If you keep your tires properly inflated and rotated, your tires will last longer.  You’ll also enjoy a safer ride, better traction and improved fuel economy.  We hope you’ll visit us soon at Salinas Auto Mall.  Our Service technicians are highly trained and want to help you with preventative maintenance for your vehicle.
