Here at Neese Automotive we are strong proponents of consistent oil change service on our vehicles. We are the experts you want to rely on for determining what type of and how many oil changes you need for the specific vehicle and type of driving you do.
Are there bad cars or just badly maintained cars? It's a fact that preventive maintenance is the basic ingredient to a long-lived, reliable vehicle. But how does one define "maintenance"? The dime-store answer is: Read your owner's manual and define your driving habits.
The engine is the most expensive part of any vehicle, so preserving it is fundamental. And the most important part of preserving the engine is changing oil, which must be performed on schedule, using high-quality oil of the proper viscosity. That part is easy. The more complicated part is determining what constitutes "on schedule," and selecting the right oil.
Although it might not be as simple as it sounds, begin by reviewing your owner's manual. Today's terminology can be complex, but it is essential to understand which maintenance schedule-most manuals include two schedules-is right for your vehicle and your driving habits.
Many NAPA AutoCare Centers employ qualified ASE-certified technicians. ASE certification takes the guesswork out of finding a good technician. The independent, non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) tests and certifies the competence of individual automotive repair technicians so you can be assured of their skills and knowledge. Here's why many NAPA AutoCare Center owners employ ASE-Certified repair professionals ...and why you should ask for them when you need repairs:
Proven Experience in Auto Repair
Skills and Knowledge technicians must pass to become certified, at least one of ASE's 40-plus difficult national exams and provide proof of two years of relevant work experience. Prior to taking ASE exams, many technicians attend training classes or put in hours of study to prepare.
Changing Auto Repair Techonology
Today's complex vehicles demand current technical knowledge. ASE requires technicians to re-test every five years to keep up with technology and to remain certified. All ASE credentials have expiration dates.
Commitment to Auto Repair Quality
Technicians who have invested the time and expense to earn ASE certification take pride in their work, and it shows in the service they provide. Shop owners and managers who encourage their employees to become certified maintain the same high standards in other aspects of their business.
Look for our blue-and-white ASE sign at our shop and the ASE shoulder insignia that our technicians wear.
