Your car is one of your largest investments, so let us help you protect it. Factory-scheduled maintenance can help extend the life of your car and prevent high-cost auto repairs.

It’s also important to note that you do not have to complete all of your factory scheduled maintenance at a dealer to maintain coverage under your warranty. In fact, by law, as long as you follow the maintenance schedule recommended by your manufacturer, you can have maintenance completed anywhere.

At MPC, we understand how important your car is to you and we know your car's needs. We can help you follow its factory-recommended maintenance schedule. Call or stop by today.

Changing your oil every 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers), or as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer based on your driving conditions, is vital for your vehicle and can help you avoid costly problems. With each oil change, the oil filter may also need to be replaced.

Our mechanics will select the correct weight and grade oil for your vehicle, perform oil and filter service and complete a visual check of the following items:

• Engine air filter
• Brake fluid
• Power steering fluid
• Automatic transmission fluid
• Coolant/antifreeze

We'll also walk you through your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations for replacing these vital fluids and filters.

Your vehicle's engine accessory drive belts and coolant hoses will eventually dry out and crack. Belts and hoses can also come loose from the continual vibration that cars typically undergo over time.

And that's not good. One sudden malfunction of these relatively inexpensive but very important parts can have costly consequences.

Stop by MPC and we can help you avoid this kind of breakdown. Our experienced mechanics can detect many potential belt and hose problems with a simple visual inspection. Regular inspections, coupled with timely belt and hose replacement in accordance with your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations, will help protect against expensive repairs.
