Wheel alignment should be checked under the following circumstances:

• When your vehicle has encountered road hazards or run over curbs
• When unusual tire wear patterns appear

Antifreeze (or "coolant") should be replaced every 48,000 kilometers due to oxidation and deterioration of crucial additives that help lubricate the water pump and protect metal components from rust and corrosion.

Our M-2 Service will properly inspect your coolant and verify service requirements.

Yes! Summer vacations are an enjoyable time of year for everyone, but a breakdown in a unfamiliar part of the country, and perhaps even miles away from any kind of service shop can ruin even the best planned road trips.

Yes, the manufacturer advises timing belt replacement in most cases at the 160,000 kilometer interval. Some of the earlier model vehicles had suggested replacement intervals of 96,000 kilometers. This is an important preventive maintenance procedure for your vehicle that should not be overlooked. If not replaced it could break, leaving you stranded, or in some cases causing further damage to your engine.
