December Tip of the Month with Justin Nelson

Hi, I’m Justin Nelson, a Service Advisor at Mercedes-Benz Temecula. With holidays like Christmas, Hanukkah, and even National Cupcake Day just around the corner, we know there may be a lot of travel involved. For that reason, Mercedes-Benz of Temecula wants to make sure you and your Mercedes-Benz are equipped for the journey ahead.

Prior to your travels, ensure your Mercedes-Benz is inspected for proper tire rotation and alignment. By preparing ahead of time, you can save money in the future by detecting problems early on and improving your vehicle’s gas mileage. Bad alignment results in your vehicle putting more energy into its trajectory; therefore leading to lower MPG. Routine maintenance on your Mercedes-Benz will also improve the longevity of your vehicle’s operation and help you avoid premature tire replacement.

WHEN TO SERVICE YOUR VEHICLE

How do you know when your Mercedes-Benz is in need of an Alignment and Rotation service? Here are a couple ways to tell when you should bring in your vehicle for a service check.

1. Your steering wheel no long lines up straight.
2. Front tires will show signs of uneven wear.
3. Your vehicle starts to pull left or right.
4. You feel your vehicle vibrating or shaking while driving.

If you notice any of these signs in your Mercedes-Benz, it’s time to bring your car in.

Don’t spend unnecessary money this holiday season. Instead, spend it toward those you love. Get your car serviced by making an appointment today by contacting: (951) 216-7900
