  • Phoenix-Mesa, AZ (1888PressRelease) November 18, 2011 - Tempe, Ahwatukee, and Guadalupe Customers, Suntec Auto Glass - Your local Windshield Company - is very pleased to honor 'Car Care Month'. Windshield Replacement and Auto Glass Repair is as important as any other maintenance on your vehicle.

    It can be intimidating enough driving on the roads and freeways without having to worry about breaking down in the middle of traffic or in an unsafe environment! Even though you feel you have the most trustworthy car on the road, it doesn't take much neglect to go from safe to sorry!

    Regular car upkeep is extremely important - not only to your automobile, but to your loved ones as well. More than five percent of vehicle accidents result from unperformed automobile upkeep; resulting in 2,600 deaths, 100,000 disabling injuries and a cost of more than $2 billion every year according to the Car Care Council.

    A recent survey by the Car Care Council found:

    38% of cars had low or dirty engine oil
    28% had inadequate cooling protection
    54% had low tire pressure
    19% needed new belts
    16% had dirty air filters
    And don't forget - Proper windshield replacement and auto glass repair saves lives.

    Leased cars are most likely the least stressful to maintain as they actually include indicator lights on the dashboard that tells you when it's time for maintenance. Any new car purchased from a dealership includes the warranty and maintenance schedule; however, the dealership, and your local mechanic, will also send out reminders. For those used automobiles that might not come with a maintenance schedule, there are websites such as www.Edmunds.com which provide the appropriate information for just about every make and model vehicle.

    critical parts that are checked at every service interval include automatic transmission fluid, battery and cables, belts, engine air and oil filter, exhaust, fuel filter, hoses, power steering fluid and tire inflation and condition. These should be checked according to the following schedule:

    Every three months or 3,000 miles
    Every six months or 6,000 miles
    Every 9 months or 9,000 miles
    Every 12 months or 12,000 miles

    In addition to the above, your car should be checked monthly for lights, tire inflation, check engine light on and windshield washer fluid.

    October is reserved as Fall Car Care Month by the Car Care Council! This means that volunteer car professionals all across the country will help buyers prepare for the upcoming winter season and educate about proper car care safety. Subaru has announced their support of Fall Car Care Month. Owners of Subaru's can bring their automobiles into local dealerships for free inspections with particular focus on areas that minimize fuel consumption. 

    As your local Auto Glass Company we ask you please don't neglect your auto glass repair and windshield replacement this October. Make sure you're ready for a safe and smart winter.
