As we talked about in last week's blog post, a lot of people are getting back on the road this summer. Life is starting to return back to normal with people taking road trips or just returning to their offices. You may not have not driven much in the past year, but that also means you may not have done much maintenance to your vehicle(s). Automotive Maintenance: Mileage vs. Time Some people think of routine maintenance as only a mileage-based task. You get your oil changed and tires rotated every 5,000-6,000 miles. You didn't put as many miles on your car, so there hasn't been a need for maintenance. Unfortunately, time can also take its toll on certain vehicle parts. If your car has just been sitting around and gathering dust the past 14 months, it will likely require some maintenance. Fluids can ... read more

Worn-out shocks and struts are not as obvious as a flat tire or wheel. They wear out gradually, which is why it is crucial to know the signs to look out for. What Are Shocks and Struts? Shocks and struts are part of the suspension system, which stabilizes your car, enhancing control as you turn, accelerate, brake, or drive over uneven surfaces. While they both have similar functions, they are pretty different. Shocks are independent components, while struts combine other features and shocks to make a single strong unit. Most vehicles can do fine with either one of the two or a combination of the two. Given that shocks and struts wear out gradually, here are the symptoms that indicate they are worn and need to get replaced. Bumpy Ride Shocks and struts control the movement of coil springs, preventing the wheels from moving up and down too much. If the shocks or struts are worn out, the tires become unstable, resulting in a bumpy ride. If you feel that you cannot control your car a ... read more
