General & Preventative Maintenance

Expert Auto Preventative Maintenance in Laurel, MS

The best way to prevent long-term and costly problems to your vehicle is to keep up with its preventative maintenance schedule. One major key to successfully making sure you are doing all you need to do is to read your vehicle’s owner’s manual. Regardless of your vehicle’s make or model, its owner’s manual will contain a maintenance schedule. Every make and model is different, and standby beliefs such as “You have to change your oil every 3,000 miles,” may not apply to your car.

Preventative Maintenance Schedule

The maintenance schedule within your owner’s manual is provided by the people who understand your vehicle the best—the company that built it. The manufacturer provides guidelines for when services are needed on your vehicle, such as oil, filter, belts, hoses, brakes, and more.

Some preventative maintenance—such as topping off fluids and checking tire air pressure—can be performed by vehicle’s owners. Other procedures should be done by professional automotive technicians, like the team at Herman’s Auto Tech. Our professional technicians can keep your vehicle in top shape by performing a maintenance checklist.
