Have you checked out the price of new vehicles at Huntersville car dealers? Ouch! Add financing and insurance and a new ride may not seem so attractive. A lot of Huntersville, North Carolina, folks are hoping to make their cars last a lot longer.
Fortunately, with the current state of automotive engineering and manufacturing, there's no reason a modern vehicle can't be made to last for a 150,000 miles (250,000 kilometers) or more for smart Huntersville drivers.
The old adage: 'a stitch in time saves nine' is really true for Huntersville residents when it comes to car maintenance. A great example is coolant service.
Over time, coolant becomes corrosive and actually starts to damage your radiator and other parts. Smart Huntersville drivers have their cooling system service taken care of right on schedule at Tuffy Tire & Auto Huntersville.
Ditto for your power steering system, brake fluid, air conditioning system, differential and transmission. Of course, oil changes should be done right on schedule to avoid the build-up of harmful oil sludge.

Replacing belts and hoses is much cheaper than repairing the damage that can be caused by failure.
