What is Preventative Maintenance?
Preventative maintenance means that all factory recommended maintenance is completed within the time or mileage requirements of each vehicle. When you have your vehicle serviced regularly, any potential concerns can be addressed at your maintenance appointment, which prevents roadside breakdowns. As well, when all the fluids your vehicle uses are kept in top condition, any parts related to those fluids do not wear out as quickly as otherwise, again preventing breakdowns and costly repairs. It costs 42% less to maintain your vehicle than to pay for breakdowns.
It has been reported that the average Canadian family spends 35% of its net income on their vehicles. Through preventative maintenance, we can not only reduce your breakdowns, but also lengthen the life of your vehicle, and move some of that 35% expense into your savings account, instead.
