Why Invest in Spring Vehicle Service?
Spring car care provides many important benefits for your vehicle. It can improve performance, boost fuel efficiency, enhance safety, and help prevent costly repairs down the road. Taking care of routine maintenance and any needed repairs will help your car run its best. Winter weather can be especially hard on tires, causing uneven wear. If you live in the Geneseo area, treating your vehicle to a spring service appointment is an essential investment.
Swap Out Your Winter Tires!
One of the first things you'll want to do when spring arrives is to swap out your winter tires for your all-season tires. While winter tires are optimal for cold-weather traction on Corning's snow-covered roads, they are not designed for spring and summer driving. Winter tires have special tread compounds that remain flexible in cold temperatures but will wear down quickly in warmer weather. Leaving winter tires on after the season's ended can also degrade your vehicle's performance and fuel economy.
When you swap out your winter tires, it's also the perfect time to have your tires rotated and balanced. Rotating tires helps promote even tread wear and extends the life of the tires. Balancing ensures that weight is distributed evenly around the tire for a smooth ride.
Invest in a Pothole Season Tire Alignment
The freezing and thawing cycles of winter followed by spring rains often lead to potholes on the road. Potholes can throw off your tire alignment, leading to uneven tread wear. You may notice your vehicle pulling to one side or a vibrating steering wheel if your alignment is off.
Investing in a wheel alignment at Park Maple City Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram will help your tires last longer and support your vehicle's best driving better. Our alignment service will ensure all four wheels are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other so the vehicle travels straight. Proper tire alignment also improves handling and fuel efficiency.

You're primed and ready to switch out your winter tires, but you're noticing that your all-seasons look a bit worse for wear. If their tread is worn down, it's time to invest in a new set of tires.
