Looking for a great New Year’s resolution for your vehicle? Don’t stress – we have you covered right here on this week’s blog from start to finish. We know your resolutions alone might be hard to tackle but we guarantee that these resolutions will keep you happy and your wallet fat thanks to routine maintenance for your Nissan! Let’s get started and be sure to schedule your service appointment online today! Oh, and don’t forget to snag a service special to help save a little cash when you stop in to see our team! 

  1. Don’t Neglect Car Maintenance
  • If you didn’t keep up with your regular car maintenance in 2019,  your first new year’s resolution should be to call your mechanic! Yes, I know keeping up with car maintenance can be a pain, but when you don’t keep up with it bigger problems can arise. And it isn’t cheap.
  • Schedule a service appointment today or stop into Loughead Nissan today for your service needs! 
  •  
  1. Learn To Do Basic Maintenance Yourself
  • 2020 is the year of DIY and if you’re tired scheduling maintenance and spending money on service, there is no better time than now to make it a new year’s resolution to learn how to do it yourself!
  • Start with something small, like learning to replace your windshield wipers. It usually needs to be done twice a year and is important for road safety. It’s an easy goal for the new year to accomplish quickly.
  1. End Distracted Driving
  • According to the DMV, on average 9 people are killed by distracted driving every day. Most people think that distracted driving means texting and driving but it actually refers to anything that can take your full attention away from the road. This includes reaching for something, changing the music, using an app, checking your GPS or map, taking a photo, checking email or posting to social media, eating and drinking, and even putting on makeup/grooming
  • Make this resolution to drive less distracted to keep you and others on the road safer.
  1. Keep Your Car Clean
  • For some of you keeping your car clean comes naturally, but for the rest of us, it is a daily challenge. If your car is a mess going into the new year learn how to declutter your car and prevent future clutter.
    • First, remove everything from your car that you do not need.
    • Second, organize those important papers in your car and rid of the papers you don’t need. Throw out old receipts, coupons, and other miscellaneous papers. Then find the important documents like your registration, insurance, and owner’s manual and put them in a safe spot.
    • Third, give your car a deep clean after you’ve decluttered it. Vacuum the seats and floor, wipe down windows, and take it through a car wash.

Christmas is all about hanging with family and creating memories, oh yeah, and amazing food, and if you’ll be hosting the holidays this year, we are sure you have a ton of things to get done before the big day gets here! We understand with all of that stress if you’re not in the Christmas spirit, but we want to help get you excited for the holidays! Whether you’re a gifting pro or you’re drowning in wrapping paper, we know one thing that will get you feeling the Christmas spirit!  Check out our ultimate Christmas playlist below and be sure to crank the volume all the way up to really feel the holly jolly Christmas vibes!

Are you haunted by the possibility of a dead battery this November? It’s a concern worth considering, especially as cooler weather approaches. Now might be the perfect time to have your battery tested and your vehicle serviced to guarantee a smooth and trouble-free fall and winter season. Kickstart this maintenance journey in our service department with our team of manufacturer-trained service technicians. Before you schedule your next service appointment, explore the tips below and put them to good use. Don’t let the worry of a potential battery failure weigh on you this winter – plan ahead and keep your vehicle running smoothly!

Loughead Nissan’s Battery Care Tips: 

How To Avoid A Dead Battery

  • The easiest way to put your mind to ease that you won’t be in this situation is to service your battery regularly to make sure there are no issues. This is exceptionally important when temperatures start to drop drastically or after driving long miles. A technician can test your battery to ensure that it’s still in a good, healthy condition.
  • Be smart with your vehicle. Don’t use certain features like the radio, chargers, or lights for long periods of time without starting your vehicle. This puts a lot of stress on your battery and can end up killing your battery altogether.
  • Avoid extreme temperatures if you can. We encourage you to park your vehicle in your garage (if you have one). This can cut back on exposure to extreme temperatures and won’t be the mortality of your battery.

What Caused My Dead Battery 

  • Leaving headlights, interior lights, flashers or the radio on when your vehicle isn’t running.
  • Using the air conditioner or heat when your vehicle isn’t running.
  • Low air temperatures, causing your battery to freeze.
  • Lack of battery maintenance.
  • Not starting your vehicle for long periods of time.
  • Failure of voltage regulator within the alternator.

What To Do When Your Battery Dies

  • Of course, the first answer is to jump-start your vehicle. It’s always a great idea to keep a set of jumper cables inside your vehicle for emergencies whether that is you or another driver. Also, keep in mind that you should NEVER try to jump start a battery if it is cracked or visibly leaking acid.
  • Roadside assistance is a beautiful thing and is almost necessary. If you do find yourself stranded and in need of help, be sure to call roadside assistance for help. This is especially helpful if you are on the highway and can’t flag down another driver. Plus, it’s safer to stay in your vehicle while a trained professional addresses the situation.

Welcome back to our blog for another week of need-to-know automotive information and news! With November in full swing, it’s no secret that the winter weather is right around the corner. With that being said, it’s important to stay on top of your winter maintenance to make sure you don’t run into any issue down the road…literally! Neglecting your winter maintenance could lead to you broken down and stuck in a winter storm, and did we mention potentially having to dish out some serious cash? To avoid that it’s important to create a winter maintenance checklist and schedule your service appointment now! 

However, if you know your way around the inside of your vehicle and you’re into DIY, we’ve got some maintenance you can do on your own! If you’re into cars and automotive maintenance, then you know keeping your vehicle’s fluid level at proper positions is important. Before the brutal weather hits it’s important to top off all of your vehicle’s levels to ensure that there is no overheating, breakdowns, or issues. But what levels should you be checking? Lucky for you we have all you need to know below! Take a peek and feel free to give us a call for any questions you might have! Don’t have time to service your vehicle? No problem! Schedule your service appointment NOW!

Fluid Levels:

  1. Oil
    • What it does: cools your engine, lubricates moving parts, keeps moving parts clean
    • What to do: change it regularly (dealer recommendation) and check it monthly
  2. Coolant
    • What it does: regulates your vehicle’s temperature.
    • Where to find it: in a reservoir near the radiator.
    • What to do: if the level is low (level is indicated in the reservoir) take the vehicle to the shop to get coolant topped up.
  1. Power Steering Fluid
    • What it does: helps you steer the vehicle
    • Where to find it: a reservoir at the base of the windshield.
    • What to do: same as above, if the level is low take your vehicle to the shop to get the fluid topped up.
  2. Brake Fluid
    • What it does: helps braking mechanisms work properly
    • What to do: if the level is chronically low, your brakes could be wearing out.
  3. Windshield Washer Fluid
    • What it does: helps clean windshield of dust, debris, bug guts, etc.
    • What to do: if you run out, get more at your local gas station and just refill the clearly labeled tank.
