Though getting an oil change and keeping up on your car maintenance might not be top of mind, it should make the top of your priority list. Chris Hardesty for Kelley Blue Book says maintaining your car over time can help avoid more costly repairs down the road.
It can seem overwhelming to make an appointment with your dealer for routine maintenance that shouldn't take too long. But there is another option.
Jiffy Lube is a great alternative. In addition to their Signature Service oil changes, Jiffy Lube offers more car maintenance services that help keep your vehicle costs low and your ride on the road for miles ahead. Here are just a few.
Oil change
As the name suggests, Jiffy Lube's technicians are your go-to expedited oil change experts —- without the hassle of scheduling and long wait times. But their service goes well beyond changing the oil and oil filter.
Included in this service is an inspection of cooling system levels, transmission fluid, differential fluid, engine air filtration system, serpentine belts, brake fluid level, wiper blades, exterior lights, and more.
They'll also check your tire pressure and check other vital fluid levels.
If anything noteworthy comes up, your technician will bring it to your attention and offer solutions to fix the problem.
Brake inspection and replacement services
Few car parts have as much impact on your driving safety as the condition of your brakes.
A JD Power study found that many car owners had to wait approximately five days for their car to be seen by a mechanic. If your brakes are in bad shape, five days is a long time.
From brake pads to brake fluid, Jiffy Lube can take care of all your brake needs there on the spot — all to your manufacturer's specifications.
No need to wait days for an appointment at your dealership. Just pop in and let the professionals take care of the rest.
Engine management and diagnostics
There are few things worse than enjoying a casual commute to work in the morning and having your check-engine light come on — especially if it means waiting for hours or even days to have your dealership check it out.
Instead, drop into Jiffy Lube on your lunch break to find out the solution.
Just a few of the engine-related services they offer include engine diagnostics, fuel system cleanings, ignition system services, radiator coolant fluid exchanges, radiator cap replacements, radiator hose replacements, serpentine belt replacements , spark plug replacement, air conditioning evacuation and recharge, and emissions systems services.
Nationwide service history records and warranties
The best part about visiting a Jiffy Lube for your service internal checkups or general maintenance items — aside from the significant cost savings and convenience — is that no matter where you go in the country, you'll be covered.
Their service history records stay in their system nationwide so there's no guessing as to what's been done and what your car needs, should you find yourself out of town or moved to another area.
Peace of mind
Jiffy Lube offers 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000+ mile interval general checkups to give you peace of mind through the years you drive your car. You also don't have to worry about voiding your warranty — Jiffy Lube helps maintain your vehicle warranty and adheres to manufacturer recommendations.
