Getting preventative INFINITI maintenance can help keep your car in good health, but things can always go wrong, no matter how well-maintained your vehicle is. If the car needs some attention, then it’ll let you know by making strange noises, performing differently, or in some other way. Any of the issues we’re about to discuss should prompt you to visit the INFINITI dealership as soon as possible.
1. You Haven’t Visited the INFINITI Dealership in a While
If you want to keep your car in the best condition possible, then you should be stopping by the dealership more than once a year. Certain services, such as tire rotations and oil changes, are typically done every six months.
At the very least, you should visit the dealership once a year for a full service, as it lets you stay on top of any problems your car has and make sure it’s in good condition. If you can’t remember the last time you visited the dealership, then it’s time to make an appointment.
2. You Notice Liquids by the Car
If you spot a pool of liquid by the vehicle, then it’s a good idea to check all your fluid levels to make sure none of them are lower than expected. Any puddle of fluid by your vehicle could be a leak. Fluids that can leak out include oil, transmission fluid, and radiator fluid. If your car is leaking any fluids, then it needs maintenance ASAP.
3. You Hear Strange Noises
Cars often make weird noises when there’s something wrong with them. For example, you might hear more engine noise than usual if you need an oil change. You could hear grinding sounds while you’re changing gears if something is wrong with the transmission. There may be a high-pitched metallic screeching noise if you need new brake pads. The tires might squeal if you need a wheel alignment.
3. You Get Poor Gas Mileage
Many issues can cause poor gas mileage. A low oil level, misaligned wheels, worn-out brakes, underinflated tires, and clogged fuel filters are just a few examples of them. If your gas mileage drops, then your vehicle almost definitely needs maintenance.
4. You Have Trouble with Your Gears
If your transmission is in disrepair, then you’ll usually start having problems with your gears. If you have any problems such as delayed gear engagement, slipping gears, or difficulty shifting into the next gear, then it’s time for service. Feeling extra vibrations or hearing noises while you’re changing gears are more signs that it’s time to visit the dealership.
