You start your car . . . and the Check Engine light comes on. Few things are capable of inducing so much dread. Visions of costly breakdowns dance through your head. Relax! Your vehicle’s monitoring systems are sensitive to the tiniest variable. A quick call to your dealer mechanic could reveal the culprit as nothing but a loose gas cap, or simple maintenance that’s been overlooked for a pre-programmed amount of time. (Note that slow or fast blinking Check Engine lights should be evaluated immediately; these can indicate a loose oil cap, which is a serious problem.)

Call your dealer when that Check Engine light comes on, and consult your owners’ manual. It just might ease your mind.

If you're ever involved in a collision, the choice of a collision repair shop is critical to assuring your warranty remains intact. Many insurance companies will suggest repair shops that agree with the insurers method of repair, not the manufacturers recommended procedures. 

Aftermarket replacement parts, which are in many cases substandard and suggested for use by insurance companies, may void the warranty on your vehicle.

There is one sure way to maintain your vehicle warranty in case of an accident: by insisting qualified and trained Toyota collision experts restore your vehicle to pre-accident condition. 

Our collision repair centers, Ardmore Auto Body and Paul Bros. Auto Body, have been repairing Toyota's since 1969 and provide a lifetime warranty on workmanship. 

We work for you, not the insurance company. Please feel free to contact us for a FREE estimate the next time your vehicle is in need of collision repair.

Do you check your car’s tire pressure once a month? Probably not. 85% of drivers don’t! Make tire checks are a part of your regular maintenance routine, because they’re not just important for safety; they can save you big money at the gas pump. 

Underinflated tires may run hot and wear faster, causing low gas mileage. Check your owner's manual or door sticker for the ideal pressure. When it's time to top up your tires, consider using nitrogen. It has larger molecules than air, so it leaks at a slower rate; and it’s free from oxygen or moisture, so it won’t degrade rubber or rust your rims. Airline pilots and racecar drivers entrust their tires to nitrogen, and more service stations are offering nitrogen pumps. Ask your dealer mechanic if it’s the right choice for you.
