You were on the internet looking at a story about campus ghost walks when you saw the popup ad for a car tuneup. You know it’s past time for your car to get its regular preventive maintenance but it’s running fine so you ignored the thought and continued your search.

You’re not the only one who delays routine auto care but, it’s not a wise move. Rd.com explains:

“Late model cars and trucks are built to more exacting tolerances and that means routine maintenance is more important than ever. If you think the engineers just make up the oil and fluid change and inspection recommendations to generate money for shops, think again! They’re critical to the life of your vehicle.”

Rd.com offers examples: “Engine coolant does more than keep your engine from overheating. The additives in coolant also prevent internal corrosion. But those additives wear out over time. It’s easy to test coolant with an inexpensive tester and a digital multimeter. But if you skip routine coolant changes, you risk early water pump and heater core and radiator failure. …

“Skipping or extending motor oil and transmission fluid changes can cause total engine and transmission failure. A new engine costs around $4,000 and a transmission rebuild runs around $3,500, so it’s simply not worth the risk. Your car or truck will last longer and provide more reliable service if you perform the recommended maintenance services on time.  If you can’t afford the maintenance, how will you afford the high repair costs?”
