In this economy, we do almost anything to save money. From extreme couponing to down grading many facets of our life, saving money is more important than ever. However, how much money will skipping necessary auto repair or maintenance save you in the long run? The average American spends roughly $120 annually on oil changes, while the average transmission will cost nearly $4,000. Let this put into perspective: while saving a few dollars now might seem like a frugal idea, in the long run might be incredibly costly.

Simple auto repair such as tune-ups and oil changes will not only increase the life of your vehicle in the long term, but improve the performance, maneuverability and fuel economy in the short term. Regular auto repair also helps to improve the safety of your vehicle. Often small problems cannot be detected from simply driving and requires a trained professional to detect. Do not attempt to perform major auto repair from home. This money saving tactic can also backfire and cause costly unforeseen consequences.

Comparable to most issues if addressed in a timely manner, many auto repairs can be resolved somewhat easily and much less expensively than if ignored or unnoticed. The Boyd’s Tire and Service Center family understands the importance of not only resolving these problems quickly, but more importantly educating their customers to have insight in knowing when an auto repair is needed. With seven convenient locations in central Ohio, Boyd’s Tire and Service works tirelessly to ensure auto repair is not only convenient, but a pleasant experience.
