Aftermarket Warrantees

We participate most aftermarket warrantee programs. Maintenance may be pricey these days, but car repairs can be even more expensive. If you have only one big repair bill that is covered by your extended warranty, an automatic transmission failure for example, then your policy just paid for itself. Call us to find out if your warrantee is covered.

MVP Automotive offers performance upgrades for your vehicle.

Fleet Maintenance Programs

Our fleet maintenance programs can help your business running smoothly. Lower operating costs/mile, longer vehicle lifespan, improved fuel economy and fewer breakdowns and unscheduled repairs are just a few benefits of signing up for a program.

Maintaining Your Vehicle Like New

Check the vehicle's "vital signs" every time you gas up

When you fill the gas tank, pop the hood and check the levels of oil, coolant, brake fluid, and power steering fluid.

Check tires for proper inflation every two weeks

Underinflated tires are a leading cause of blow-outs and accidents. The National Highway Traffic Safety Institute has found that one in four cars (27%) on the highway has at least one underinflated tire (at least 8 psi low).

Keep the exterior clean

Some experts recommend washing the car weekly. You may not need to do it that frequently, but keeping the exterior free of dirt, road salts, tree sap, bird droppings and the like can keep your vehicle looking like new, enhancing its value.

Follow the recommended schedule for oil changes

Oil is an engine's single most important safeguard against wear and tear. Changing the oil and filter regularly, therefore, is the single most important thing you can do to keep your engine healthy.

Check tire tread every two months; balance, rotate and align tires as recommended

These steps can help insure that you get the longest, safest service out of your tires. Tires need replacing when the wear bars begin to show or when you can see the top of Lincoln's head when you insert a penny head first into the tread (about 2/32" or less).

Check hoses and belts every month

Belts should be adequately tight. Hoses should be firm and not spongy. The general service period is three to four years. Caution: don't test a hot hose with your bare hand

Every fall and spring, check coolant strength

The proper strength coolant mixture keeps the vehicle's coolant system from freezing in winter or running hot in summer

Check brakes for wear at least once a year

Regular brake maintenance means you don't leave stopping safely to chance. Don't wait until you hear grinding or squealing sounds or until the brake pedal starts to fade or feel spongy to have the brakes checked.

Check battery connections regularly and keep track of the battery's age

Also keep those jumper cables in the trunk. Checking that connections are secure and that no corrosion has built up on battery terminals can help prevent those annoying mornings when the car won't start.

Follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule for all systems

Taking your vehicle in for the "minor" and "major" service required by the manufacturer to keep the vehicle under warranty is a must. Most manufacturers also make service recommendations for periods beyond the warranty. Use these as a minimum guide.
