Need a Tire Rotation before your Winter Trip?

The Holiday Season is here, and with that comes road trips for many people. However, that means there are more cars on the road that need some type of maintenance or repairs. So that you are not one of the motorists sitting by the side of the road, take a few extra minutes before your trip to make ensure safe holiday travels through the cold and icy conditions. A standard inspection should including checking all fluids, a necessary oil change, inspection of your tires (purchasing new tires or snow tires may be necessary), including a tire rotation, braking system, and steering and suspension systems. Remember to check the spare when inspecting your other tires.

Of course, even if your vehicle has a clean bill of health, be prepared for the unexpected. This time of year can be hazardous, due to break downs, flat tires, accidents, road closures, and other issues. Be sure to have a roadside emergency kit in the trunk, and throw in a couple of blankets, snacks, and water.

Make sure you take care of your tires before something goes wrong! A tire failure while you're driving can be catastrophic--causing your car to go out of control or leaving you stranded in the middle of nowhere.  A tire rotation can sometimes fix a lot of problems:

• Worn Tread - The tread on your tires should never fall below 1/16 of an inch (1.6 millimeters) in depth. Twice that much is better if you regularly drive on slick, wet surfaces.
• Cracks in the Sidewall – Cracks could be a sign that your tire is developing a leak.
• Bulges and Blisters – When the outer surface of the tire begins to weaken, it can result in a bulge or blister that extends outward from the rest of the surface.
• Too Much Vibration - There can be a number of causes for excessive vibration—misaligned or unbalanced tires, failing shock absorbers, or a problem in internal structure of the tire.

We here at Precision Automotive would like to thank our customers for allowing us to take care of your vehicle throughout the year. As you head down the open road to spend the holidays with friends and family, we wish all of you a safe and happy holiday season filled with family, friends and joy.

Engine Repair Do You Know Your Options?

Just like a physical check-up at your doctor's office, it is important to keep up with regular engine service for your vehicle. If engine service is neglected, over time your vehicle will start to develop problems caused by normal mileage wear and tear, poor maintenance, lubrication problems; or excessive overheating, just to name a few. You may start to notice the typical symptoms--excessive smoke from the tailpipe; excessive oil consumption; knocking or tapping sounds; low oil pressure; low compression; water mixing in oil; oil getting into the air cleaner and/or radiator.

If your engine has "died," it does not have to be the end of your vehicle.  But what are your options? Smart motorists, like smart shoppers, make better decisions when they know all of the options. When a car or truck needs major engine repair, the first reaction of many consumers is to buy a new or used vehicle. Sometimes disposing of your current vehicle might make sense, but often it simply may not be necessary, or even the best decision. Once you consider the "hidden" costs of purchasing a new or used vehicle, the economic benefits become very clear.

What are the benefits of rebuilding or replacing the engine, rather than replacing your vehicle?

Choosing to repower your current engine with a remanufactured / rebuilt engine is your most reliable and cost effective choice over the long term. Rebuilt / remanufactured engines get better gas mileage than a worn engine, and emit fewer pollutants. Engine rebuilding also saves the tremendous amount of energy used in processing discarded car engines and vehicles as well as conserving energy and resources required to manufacture new engines.

Count the Cost!
As you may have assumed, there is a fairly significant range of possible prices for different types of car engines, depending on factors such as vehicle make/model, technician labor charges and the extent of other related automotive repair services that may be required to complete the rebuilt--remanufactured engine installation. The price range typically includes the retail price of custom rebuilt or factory remanufactured engines plus the labor to install the engines. The estimate should also include the replacement of the thermostat, water pump, and disposable automotive parts including spark plugs, ignition wires, belts, hoses, filters and gaskets.

Don't Forget: You should contact multiple service providers and to obtain several estimates to determine your best engine installation value.
