The Roads Will Get Rougher.

As fall transitions into winter more and more potholes will form and your tires will take a beating.  Make sure that your vehicle’s shoes are ready for the changing road conditions.  Tire rotation this time of year is a really good idea.  We know how frustrating it is to be driving down the road and you have to grip the wheel to keep your car from drifting left or right.

If you are fortunate, in most cases a simple rotation will be enough.  Maybe a patch here or a plug there will also be needed.  If you need a new tire or a whole new set it sure is better to know now rather than when you are stranded on the side of the road or worse.  You might be able to squeeze another 1000 or two miles between oil changes, but don’t play fast and loose with your tires.

If it is time to replace those worn-out tires you should always trust a pro to determine exactly which wheels are best for your vehicle.  That’s easy - just hire the A-Team, your Kansas City area tire experts.  The choice is always Able Auto Service at 837 Osage Ave., your complete tire repair and replacement center in the Kansas City area.  Make an appointment today by calling (913) 321-1030.

Winterizing Your Car.

The weather will soon be taking a turn for the worse in Kansas City.  You will be all bundled up when you go outdoors and you will ask your vehicle to be ready for the changing driving conditions.  In our four-season area we need to make sure that our transportation is reliable throughout the next six months.  So let’s get serious about the upcoming fall/winter.

Here are some winterizing tips to remember –

1.  Install winter wipers.  It could be catastrophic not to have the best wiper blades in bad weather.
2.  Have the right tires for winter driving.
3.  Always keep your washer fluid topped out.
4.  Keep your gas tank AT LEAST half full at all times.
5.  Have more frequent maintenance check-ups.

On that last point…all you need to remember is Able Auto Service.  The A-Team is your Kansas City area auto winterizing and car care experts.  They have been servicing vehicles for decades in the KC area every day of the year.  Able Auto Service at 837 Osage Ave. is your complete vehicle winter maintenance shop in the Kansas City area.  Make an appointment today by calling (913) 321-1030.
