You can count on your Kia vehicle to last a long time. However, you want it to stay in good condition for driving around Jefferson City and beyond. Here are some services we recommend for your Kia model at our dealership.
Brakes
Brakes are what safely stop your Kia car, so they should be in good condition and stop immediately. Brake parts wear over time, and neglecting brake service can make the vehicle unsafe to drive and possibly cause accidents.
The brake pads are especially crucial because they create friction to stop the vehicle and commonly screech if worn out. Some other signs you need brake service include pulling to one side, spongy pedal, brakes vibrating when pressed, and slow response.
Tires
It is important to maintain tires because they eventually wear from constantly driving around Bean Station roads. Not servicing tires decreases fuel economy and raises the risk of an accident or blowout.
Tire rotation helps the tires maintain an even tread, so they wear out evenly for a more comfortable ride. Proper tire inflation keeps the treads or rubber areas that touch the ground from getting damaged by friction. You especially need tire inflation in colder weather because pressure can drop per every ten-degree temperature drop.
Oil Changes
Oil keeps your Kia engine parts lubricated, but it can get filled with sludge and other debris if it gets old. If the engine oil is low, it will stop cleaning the parts and possibly overheating the engine.
Oil needs changing after driving about 5,000-7,500 miles around White Pine and beyond so it properly lubricates and cleans the engine to prevent damage. Common signs your engine oil needs changing or is low include burning oil odors, checking engine light, sluggish performance, and trouble shifting gears.
