If you just bought a used MAZDA car here at Hubler Mazda, you probably want to make sure that it will last as long as possible. Fortunately, there are a few simple steps that you can take to preserve the life of your Mazda vehicle and keep it on the road for years and years to come.

Focus on Routine Maintenance

Neglecting routine maintenance and service is one of the worst things that you could do to a used vehicle, or any car for that matter. Routine maintenance tasks like oil changes, wheel alignments, and tire rotations all keep your car running smoothly and can help prevent more expensive and serious mechanical issues down the line.

The Hubler Mazda service center is here, ready to help you with all of your maintenance needs! So feel free to make an appointment through our website whenever you have the need.

Don’t Ignore Lights or Alerts

If you notice a light blinking on the instrument cluster, take it seriously. Check your owner’s manual to see what a warning light means and schedule an appointment with our mechanics as soon as you can. If you keep driving around with some kind of mechanical problem, you could end up drastically shortening the life of your vehicle.

Drive Safely

Safe driving habits can also help extend the life of your used Mazda car. It’s not just that safe driving can help you avoid an accident that could total or damage your vehicle, although that is a nice bonus. Safe driving habits also put less stress on your vehicle. Aggressive or unsafe driving habits, like speeding and stopping short, can easily wear down parts and cause mechanical issues.

So, if you’re looking for a used car and a service center that you can rely on, visit our Mazda dealership near Indianapolis. We’ll help you find a pre-owned vehicle that has many more miles left to travel!

Checking pressure in Mazda tire during summer

Why Summer Is the Right Time for MAZDA Tire Service

Indianapolis summers bring a mix of hot pavement, road trips, and sudden storms. That sort of tumult makes Mazda tire service critical before heat turns a small issue into a dangerous one. Learn why it’s so important with Hubler Mazda. more How Heat Raises the Risk of a Blowout Asphalt under direct summer sun can reach 130 to 160 degrees, and your tires absorb that heat with every mile. Additionally, air expands as it warms, so your tire pressure climbs roughly one PSI for every 10-degree rise. When a tire runs outside its recommended PSI range, added flex and friction build heat that weakens its structure, which increases the risk of a blowout. What a Summer Tire Inspection Covers A summer tire inspection starts with tread depth, since worn tread loses grip during sudden stops and downpours. Your technician will also check for cracks, bulges, and uneven wear that may point to alignment or inflation issues. Pairing a tire rotation with a pressure check helps all four tires wear evenly. If replacement is safer, one of our service advisors can help you find tires that meet Mazda specifications. Small Habits That Protect Your Tires Between Visits Outside of visiting our Mazda service center, there are a few other things you can do to care for your tires during summer. Be sure to monitor their pressure as things start to heat up, and let air out if the PSI exceeds the recommended number.  Before a road trip, look for anything embedded in the tread—a few minutes can catch a slow leak before a hot highway turns it into an emergency.

The technicians at Hubler Mazda can inspect, rotate, or replace your tires before summer heat takes its toll.
