Before you consider where to take your vehicle for maintenance and repair, you need to understand the difference between the two. Routine maintenance items are those listed in your vehicle's owner's manual as part of the model's service schedule. They are intended to keep your vehicle in top operating condition. Repairs are service that needs to be performed to fix a problem. Where you take your vehicle may depend on what needs to be done.
Scheduled maintenance can be performed at any dealership; you don't have to go to the one where you bought the vehicle. Likewise, you can take your vehicle to an independent mechanic at auto-repair shop (Hogans Automotive Services), which are typically less expensive than dealerships. Plus you don't have the cost of gas driving into town, we are local, it makes sense to support local businesses. Federal law gives you the right to service your vehicle wherever you like without affecting your warranty coverage.

You get used to your brakes. How they sound, how the pedal feels – and how quickly they stop your vehicle. Then one day, your brakes just aren’t the same. Your brakes sound funny. Your pedal feels funny – and you need to press it farther. Worst of all, it takes longer and longer to come to a stop.
Basic vehicle maintenance can prevent both frustration and expensive mechanical repairs. A tune-up is, broadly, a service in which your mechanic does a thorough inspection of your engine and then replaces or repairs all the components that have worn down or aged.
How often you change your oil and what type of oil you use are critical
to the health of your vehicle. While there are many different grades of
oil, your owner’s manual will have the specific grade for your vehicle.
At Wade's we have the warranty approved recommended grade for your
vehicle..
The steering and suspension system are two different systems that work
together. They provide directional control, allowing you to steer and
manipulate your vehicle.
A worn suspension can jeopardize the control of your vehicle.
Seasonal tire changes, balancing and alignments, we can also order you in new tires, normally next day delivery.
A tire balance corrects the weight imbalance on your tire and wheel assemblies, while an alignment corrects the angles of the tires so they always come in contact with the road in the right way.
Apart from the main charging, starting and ignition circuits, there are other circuits that power lights, electric motors, the sensors and gauges of electrical instruments, heating elements, magnetically operated locks, the radio and so on. All Circuits are opened and closed either by switches or by relays - remote switches operated by electromagnets.
We have the diagnostic equipment to tell us where a problem is
The vast majority of modern vehicles are more computerized than ever
before, and truth be told, that’s a good thing. In fact, this
computerization allows cars to be thoroughly checked with self-running
diagnostic tests to keep your vehicle in optimal working order. These
tests can scan components and a car’s integrated systems for errors or
malfunctions before they become truly dangerous.
A properly maintained cooling system is so essential to prevent your engine from overheating or, even worse, seizing up.
