SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT
Spark plugs play a vital role in the performance of your car by igniting an air-fuel mixture, causing combustion in your engine. Without them, you won’t be going anywhere.
Spark plugs wear out over time due to extreme temperatures, regular use, and outside contaminants. But exactly when they wear out depends on the age and health of your engine. We recommend having your spark plugs serviced according to your manufacturer’s suggested maintenance schedule.
BRAKE FLUID EXCHANGE
Your brake fluid is integral to maintaining safe braking performance, although it doesn’t typically require changing as often as many other car fluids. To err on caution, you’ll want to have your brake fluid flushed and exchanged every two years — according to some car manufacturers — or when it fails the brake fluid test strip per MAP guidelines.
A Pitt Stop Tire & Auto technician will test the condition of your brake fluid during a service inspection and make a recommendation. If you haven’t had your brakes serviced in a while, consider stopping by and allowing one of our expert technicians to perform a brake inspection.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Your wheels need to be aligned to ensure your car drives in a straight line. Your alignment may need reworking after a couple of thousand miles of road vibration and the occasional pothole. Wheel alignment services include inspection and adjustments to your vehicle’s steering and suspension system.
An expert technician from Pitt Stop will adjust your car’s alignment according to OEM specifications. And if applicable, they will finish by recalibrating the vehicle’s Steering Angle Sensor (SAS) or Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS).
ENGINE & CABIN AIR FILTER REPLACEMENT
Your engine and cabin air filters ensure that you and your car both have clean air to breathe while on the road. The engine air filter helps keep debris from entering the engine during the air-intake process. Meanwhile, the cabin air filter helps prevent contaminants like smog, dust, and pollen from entering the passenger cabin of your vehicle.
Both air filters should be replaced about every 12 months or 12,000 miles – or anytime they become too dirty. During a service, we’ll inspect and remove your old, dirty filters and install new ones if needed. That way, you and your engine get the fresh air you need while driving.
