Steering Linkage and Boots - We inspect the Linkage and Boots in your Steering. Excessive play in your steering can be dangerous. It can inhibit the speed of your response in an emergency situation and cause issues like excessive tire wear.

Replace Engine Oil and Filter – Due to the climate in the Eldon, MO area Vehicle Manufacturers consider us to be in harsh driving conditions. They require more frequent Oil and Filter changes. Routinely changing your vehicle’s engine oil per the manufacture’s guidelines is an essential part of properly maintaining your vehicle and keeping the warranty intact. The oil keeps the internal components of the engine lubricated and the filter collects any debris preventing it from damage. This is an essential routine maintenance item to ensure performance and longevity of your vehicle. Drive Shaft Boots – We ensure that your vehicles Boots are properly sealed, do not have any damage or tears, and are not dry rotted. This ensures that the drive shafts stay properly lubricated and can save an expensive repair of replacing the Drive Shaft.

Engine Coolant – Your vehicle’s engine coolant is one of the vital fluids that are important to maintaining the engine. Most vehicles require that the Engine Coolant be replaced every 30,000 miles. Vehicle Manufacturers consider Eldon, MO to be rated as a harsh driving area. Manufacturers are upgrading to longer lasting Engine Coolant. Even though they are starting to install Extended Life Coolant it is still extremely important to periodically check on the condition and level of the Engine Coolant. Even Extended Life Coolant breaks down over time. Ensuring that your vehicle’s Coolant System is maintained at its proper level and free from leaks will make the Coolant last longer and perform at its proper level.

Chassis Bolts and Nuts – During the 30,000 Mile Service Interval we thoroughly inspect the chassis and suspension for irregular wear and loose components. Most vehicles are driven 15,000 miles per year on average so this is an important safety check that is performed once a year. Preventative Maintenance saves you money because potential issues are caught early and keeps repairs at a minimum. Reset Maintenance Reminder - If your vehicle is equipped with a Maintenance Reminder System we will reset that during your service to ensure you are properly notified for your next Service Interval.

Tire Inspection, Rotation, and Inflation – The roads in the Sunrise Beach, MO area sometimes are not always in the best condition. Proper Tire inflation is vital for optimal handling and safety. During each Service Interval our Mechanics will inspect your tires to ensure proper placement for the best performance and longevity of your tires. Tire rotations are performed periodically so that all four tires wear evenly. If you do not rotate your tires they will wear unevenly and will require replacement more frequently. Proper inflation of your tires is essential for proper wear and performance. Properly inflated tires also improve fuel mileage.

Cabin Air Filter and Engine Air Filters – Air Filters are sometimes able to be cleaned. They also need to be replaced periodically. The Engine Air filter keeps debris out of the engine and ensures proper air intake through your engine. Depending where you live in the Eldon, MO area your Air Filter might need to be replaced more frequently. If your Engine Air Filter is clogged it will dramatically reduce the engine’s performance and fuel mileage. Cabin Air Filters are also important to maintain. This filters the air in the passenger compartment. Keeping the Cabin Air filter clean is important to ensure that you and your family are breathing clean air. Failure to keep this clean and debris free can also cause stress on the vehicle ventilation system. This can cause a foul smell and undue stress to the vehicles blower motor and ventilation system.

Brake Linkage/Drums/Pads/Disc – It is extremely important to keep your vehicle running at its top performance when driving in the Eldon, MO area and wherever the road takes you, for the safety of you and your family. A properly working Braking System is essential. Routine and thorough inspections of your braking system will ensure that you are able to safely stop your vehicle each and every time. Brake failures also can cost a lot of money to repair. A brake pad that is getting too low and not able to make it to the next Service Interval if not caught can wear into your Rotor and become a very expensive repair.

Transmission Fluid – Depending on the year, make, and model of your vehicle the Transmission Fluid may need to be replaced at this Service Interval. Vehicle Manufacturers are installing longer life Transmission Fluids and some systems are sealed and do not have a dipstick any more to inspect the fluid level. Every 30,000 miles we thoroughly check for Transmission Fluid leaks, condition of fluid, and the level of the Transmission Fluid. If a leak develops and the level becomes low the fluid will begin to burn and can cause internal bearing failure. Over time even extended life Transmission Fluid will become discolored and loose some of its protective capabilities and should be replaced. Periodic inspection of the Transmission Fluid level and condition is vital to maintaining your vehicle. If the Transmission Fluid is not properly maintained it will become discolored and can cause major internal Transmission failure. A Transmission Repair or Replacement can cost several thousand dollars and vehicle could be out of service for an extended period of time. Proper Preventative Maintenance of the Transmission fluid will save you time and the high price of a major Transmission Repair.

Fuel Lines, Connections and Vapor Recovery System – The fuel that you use in your vehicle is what powers it. Periodic inspection of the Fuel System is necessary for your safety. A fuel leak can be an expensive repair but can also be dangerous. Raw fuel and its vapors before being burned in the engine can cause a fire. It is important to ensure that the fuel connections and lines are properly sealed and maintained. Periodic maintenance will help find potential problems and find issues earlier and can save the cost of a major repair if caught early.

Ball Joints and Dust Covers - Excessive play from the Ball Joints can cause excessive tire wear, poor performance and handling. If not caught early enough can result in failure, cause further suspension damage and leave you stranded on the side of the road. Ensuring that there is no excessive play from the suspension can save the cost of a very expensive repair and prevent a break down.

Spark Plugs – Spark Plugs deliver a spark that ignites the fuel in the engine. They need to be replaced periodically. A faulty Spark Plug can cause a misfire in the engine. Misfires in the engine can cause raw fuel to not burn in the cylinder and be expelled through the Exhaust System. Continual raw fuel being expelled through the Exhaust System can cause damage to the Catalytic Converter. Periodically replacing your Spark Plugs not only increase your fuel mileage and performance but it can also save the time and cost of a several thousand dollar repair.

Four Wheel Drive & All Wheel Drive Systems - If your vehicle is equipped with Four Wheel Drive or All Wheel Drive, the Transfer Case Fluid, Front Differential Fluid, and Rear Differential Fluid may need to be replaced periodically. The Gear Oil in the Transfer Case, Front Differential, and Rear Differential lubricates the bearings. With Time, Use, and Wear of these systems the Gear Oil will start to break down. Periodic inspections of the seals and Gear Oil level will prevent an expensive repair and extensive down time. Just like the vehicles Transmission there are a lot of bearing and metal on metal movements. It is essential for the Dependability and Longevity of your Drivetrain to keep the Transfer Case Fluid, Front Differential Fluid, and Rear Differential Fluid clean and at its proper level.

Exhaust Pipes and Mountings – Leaks in the Exhaust System can not only be noisy but also dangerous. Your Vehicles Exhaust System has dangerous fumes than need to be properly expelled away from the passenger compartment. Leaks or restrictions in the Vehicles Exhaust System can also cause performance problems. An Exhaust System that is not operating as designed can dramatically reduce your power from the engine and restrict your fuel economy. Periodic inspections of manifolds, seals, gaskets, catalytic convertors, and pipes will ensure the safety of you and your family and keep your vehicle running as designed.

Brake Lines and Fluid – Properly maintaining your vehicle's Brake Fluid level is essential for the safety of you and your family. When you place your foot on the Brake Pedal of your vehicle a properly sealed and maintained Brake System will apply pressure to the Brake Calipers and bring the Brake Pad into contact with the Brake Rotor and properly stop your vehicle. Over time as your Brake Pads wear your Brake Fluid may need to be topped off. Periodic inspections of the Brake Fluid, Brake Lines, and connections will ensure that the Brake System does not lose pressure and fail. If a vehicle’s Brake Fluid becomes too low and there is not enough pressure in the system Brake Failure can occur. Moisture can also build up over time in the Brake Fluid and periodically should be replaced. Moisture in the Brake Fluid can cause damage to the seals and eventually cause a leak. Periodic inspection of your Brake System is essential for your safety and the safety of others.

Power Steering Fluid – Most vehicles on the road today have a Hydraulic Power Steering System. The fluid in the Power Steering System can also break down over time. Condensation and moisture in the Power Steering Fluid can cause seal failure and cause internal damage to the Power Steering Rack. Periodic inspections of the Power Steering Fluid level and condition can save the cost of an expensive repair. If the Power Steering Fluid becomes low due to a leak the Power Steering Rack can overheat and cause internal damage. A Power Steering Rack can cost several Thousands of dollars to replace and place the vehicle out of service for several days.
