Owning a Jeep In Utah

www.carsautorepairutah.blogspot.com

Things you should do when owning a JEEP

#1 – Find a good auto mechanic.

Jeeps are dependable,  they are. It’s just that having work done on this type of rig requires considerable knowledge and expertise — particularly for older, manual models.

Plus, as the owner of a sport vehicle, I can assure you that regular maintenance and upkeep are now part of your future.

#2 – Eliminate the death wobble.

Although the attention-grabbing name (death wobble) may be a little overly dramatic, any Jeep — and, really any 4×4 — is likely to wobble at certain speeds, thereby causing a potentially dangerous situation in terms of rollover potential.

This wobbling, which occurs because of vibration in the front wheels, typically is the result of an overloaded front suspension system.  There are lot of special parts and add-ons when it comes to Jeeps. These components — such as lift kits or big tires — can easily throw off alignment.   It’s important to make sure that any stock parts are bolted down correctly and not interfering with the streamlining of your system.

#3 – Learn the Jeep wave.

As a Jeep owner, you’re part of a special club.

People who drive Jeeps consider themselves a unique band of adventurers who enjoy all things about this classic American car.   One of the most basic ways to recognize and show respect and solidarity among drivers on the road is through the Jeep wave (yes, there really is such a thing) — which involves a specific hand gesture to a Jeep driver passing you on the other side of the road.

Jeeps

#4 –Relax and have fun.

 This  may go without saying, but you’d be surprised at how many Jeep owners garage their rigs or treat them as trophy vehicles — thereby missing out on the true fun of owning this type of ride.
Go out and have fun,  there is mud Bogging,  Rock claiming, camping, snow run,  Geocaching , Moab, Jeep Jamboree USA and much more.

That's how we JEEP   CARS Complete Auto Repair Service

Winter CARS Care in Carbon County Utah at CARS = Complete Auto Repair Service

Winter Car Care Relief for Your Vehicle

Utah

Winter can be tough on lots of things, including cars and trucks. Cold temperatures, snow and ice, road salt and pothole-causing freeze-thaw cycles put car batteries, tires, brakes and suspensions to the test.
Now is the time to rid vehicles of winter's sins in time for summer travel.
Since 1970, Americans have more than doubled their vehicle miles traveled, according to federal statistics. In summer, many of those miles are logged on driving vacations far from home, the last place motorists want to risk a breakdown.
 Regular vehicle maintenance and inspections can help improve a vehicle's fuel efficiency, achieve peak performance and even help avoid major repairs down the road," says Peter Lord, executive director, GM Service Operations.
 Vehicle owners can follow these tips to ensure their vehicles are ready to roll:
  Batteries: They work harder when it's cold, and winter can compromise their cranking performance up to 60 percent. Test and replace old or weak batteries, especially those more than three years old. It can be cheaper than a tow and replacement on the road.
 Tires / wheels: Cold weather can reduce tire pressure, so make sure all tires, including the spare, are properly inflated and balanced, and wheels are properly aligned. Inflate tires to their recommended pressure. Under-inflated tires can reduce fuel economy by up to 3.3 percent, cause premature tire failure and are a safety hazard. Tire failures and blowouts, often a result of under-inflation, contribute to 414 deaths and 10,295 injuries each year in the U.S., according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. In addition to tire pressure, check for tread wear and any obvious damage caused by potholes or sharp objects.
 Belts and hoses: Inspect and replace worn or cracked belts, as well as hoses that are blistered, brittle or too soft. Belts and hoses older than five years, even if they look intact, might need to be replaced.
 Brakes: A checkup can uncover any winter damage. Inspect the brake system, including lines, hoses, and parking brake. Inspect brake fluid for proper level. Low brake fluid can be an indication of excessive brake wear or fluid leak. Have the brake linings/pads inspected and measured.
  Suspension: Deep potholes aren't friendly to shocks and struts. An inspection to determine wear or leaks can alleviate bigger issues down the road.
 For extra security on the road, complete Auto Repair Service (C.A.R.S) encourages motorists to bring their vehicle in for a multi-point vehicle inspection. The inspections help identify service items that can help vehicles run better and better, last longer, and retain their value.
 Here are other items vehicle owners should have inspected:
* Inspect the antifreeze/coolant level, making sure the coolant used meets the specifications listed in the vehicle owner's manual.
* Check oil level regularly.
* Check the transmission fluid for correct level. Check the owner's manual or ask us, for the right type of transmission fluid to use and the proper interval for service and replacement.
* Inspect power steering fluid for proper levels. Low power steering fluid can cause damage to the power steering system and lead to premature power steering failure.
*  Inspect windshield wiper blades for wear and cracks, ideally each spring and fall.(C.A.R.S) recommends replacement of blades that look worn. Also inspect and replace the rear wiper blade, if equipped. Don't forget to check the windshield washer fluid.
* Inspect and replace as necessary the engine air filter and the cabin air filter.
*  Inspect steering components and steering linkage.
 Complete Auto Repair Service can perform comprehensive vehicle inspections to help customers keep their vehicles operating properly.

Transmission Service in Carbon County at CARS = Complete Auto Repair Service

Complete Auto Repair Service ( C.A.R.S. )

TRANSMISSION SERVICE Repairing or replacing your transmission can be one of the most expensive repairs you may have to make on your vehicle. Maintaining your transmission according to your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations, not only prolongs its life but it can prevent a costly repair or breakdown in the future.
To help maintain a safe and constant operating temperature, your vehicle uses transmission fluid to cool and lubricate the moving parts. The fluid reduces the amount of potentially damaging heat inside the transmission and helps increase the life of this important system.
Because some of the ingredients in the transmission fluid break down over time due to this heat, many vehicle manufacturers recommend the fluid be replaced at specified maintenance intervals. Check your Manuel or check with us to find out when to replace your fluid.

Mufflers and Exhaust How Stuff Works

HOW STUFF WORKS

Mufflers and Exhaust

1. What is a muffler?
A muffler is a device that is part of your vehicle’s exhaust system. The function of a muffler is to reduce the amount of noise that comes from your vehicle’s engine. The design of the muffler includes steel pipes with chambers inside that have been tuned like an instrument to reflect and cancel most of the noise coming from your engine.
2. What are the benefits of using a high performance muffler?
Not only do high performance mufflers reduce the amount of noise your car makes, they also help increase the efficiency, power output and the performance of your engine. High performance mufflers reduce the amount of back pressure in the exhaust system allowing the engine to work more efficiently. If you really want to give your vehicle a jump start, you should choose a muffler pipe that is larger in diameter and has better air intake like a “cold air intake” style.
3. What types of mufflers are there?
Some of our products include: Flow master
Dynomax 
MagnaFlow
4. How do I know which type of muffler will be best for me?
Most people don’t have a lot of knowledge about mufflers which is why most people feel a little confused and overwhelmed when choosing a muffler for their vehicle. That is where we come in. We have the knowledge and skills to best help you make your decision. We take the time to find out which type of muffler will more than meet your needs. We want our customers to know that we are here and eager to answer any question or concern you may have.
5. How do I know if I need to repair or replace my muffler?
That is a good question. If your muffler is leaking, been bent or become rusted, chances are it is time for it to be replaced. We are happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have about the condition of your muffler.

FAQ finding Auto Repair Service CARS

 CARS Auto Repair Utah FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Smart Shopping for Auto Repairs

You can help avoid trouble with an unreliable or dishonest repair shop by following these tips:

•Ask your family, friends and co-workers for advice on reliable repair shops in your area, as well as those you should avoid.
•Keep all records, including estimates, invoices, work orders, receipts, guarantees and warranties. Besides their importance in case you file a repair complaint, these papers serve as your record of service, and could increase your vehicle's resale value.
•Don't be afraid to ask questions. Management of a shop should take the time to explain required repairs and prices, discuss problems, and tell you about the training and experience of employees.
*Make sure your vehicle is serviced at the intervals specified in your owner's manual or warranty booklet and keep very clear records of your vehicle's maintenance.

•  Do you have to return to the dealer facility for all of my car's maintenance to keep from voiding the warranty?
  The answer to this is no. You can have routine service done by any competent independent service shop or garage and still maintain your warranty.
• Do you need to use the manufacturer's original equipment parts to keep you warranty valid? maybe - Automakers cannot specify the use of their or anyone else's products for your vehicle's maintenance.
• Check your owner's manual to find out what products should be replaced and at what intervals. You may use any brand-name quality product such as CARQUEST to replace fan belts, hoses, brakes, exhausts, chassis parts, oil, or any other product needed to be replaced. ( Stated in CARQUEST Tech-Net Auto service guide)

If your car is leased are you responsible for maintenance?

•  YES! Even if you lease a vehicle you are responsible for all maintenance and repairs.

How does the quality of aftermarket products compare with original equipment products?

•  Today, many of the products are manufactured by the same supplier and may even be guaranteed longer than the original equipment products. Aftermarket products supplied by  a lot of aftermarket shops exceeds manufacture specifications.

Driving Tips for better performance CARS Carbon county Utah

Green Driving Tips
for better performance

Did you know - Smart and safe driving can improve fuel economy by up to 33%

1) Keep rolling in traffic.  it can take 20% more fuel to accelerate from a full stop than from 5mph. anticipate stops and coast as much as possible.

2)  Avoid unnecessary idling.  When you idle, you get zero miles per gallon, increase engine wear and air pollution goes up.

3)  Drive your vehicle to warm it up.  automobiles today don't need a warm-up.  Even on cold morning's, running your engine for 30 seconds is all you need.

4)  Maintain an optimum highway speed for good mileage. Even going more than 60 mph uses more fuel.    Use Cruise Control.  Cruise control helps maintain a steady speed and can provide a 7% average fuel savings.

5)  Slow down.  Fuel economy decreases about 1% for every mph over 55. 

6)  Avoid rapid Stats and Stops.  you'll maximize mileage and save dollars at the pump.

7)  Combine Trips.  you engine runs more efficiently once it's warmed up, so make it in one trip when ever you can.

WHY IS MAINTENANCE IMPORTANT?
 Your vehicle has hundreds of moving parts all working together. Through normal driving, over time, some of these parts simply wear out or no longer perform the way they should.
To make sure that your vehicle is running at its best, your vehicle manufacturer recommends that certain parts and systems are checked at certain intervals. By following their recommendations, more costly repairs down the road may be avoided.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MAINTENANCE AND REPAIRS?
 Repairs are services that are required or necessary when something on your vehicle is not working properly. Also, when your vehicle has worn to the point where a replacement is required to maintain the performance of your vehicle.
The schedule for performing these maintenance services varies from vehicle to vehicle. You will find the schedule for your vehicle in your owner's manual. Following this schedule is the best way to make sure your vehicle is performing as it should.
 We offer Maintenance Services that follow the schedule as recommended in your owner's manual.
