Whether you drive a Hyundai Tucson, Hyundai Santa Fe, Hyundai Elantra or Hyundai Kona, your car may be secretly hoping you'll make some special resolutions for 2024.For example, your Hyundai might be wishing that you'll pay extra attention to providing it with the regular, factory-recommended maintenance that can make it feel so healthy. You can also do yourself a favor for the new year by using your tax refund to get a better car. Here are some of the New Year's resolutions we hope you’ll consider when you visit us at Danbury Hyundai in Danbury CT.
Resolution #1: Regular Hyundai oil changes
Your Hyundai SUV or sedan can easily pick up a variety of dust, dirt and grime particles as you drive around New Milford or Waterbury CT. Those tiny contaminants can work their way into your engine and reduce its life expectancy. Your motor oil is designed to help clean up the mess but over time, the oil itself becomes dirty and needs to be replaced. That's where a regular Hyundai oil change comes in.
Your Hyundai sedan or SUV will feel so much better when you bring it into our service center for a regular, factory-recommended oil change. We can flush out the old motor oil, fill your crankcase with new synthetic oil, replace your oil filter and help give your engine a fresh new outlook on life. For best results, it's a good idea to change your oil every 5,000 miles or at least once a year. If you drive in dusty conditions or do a lot of city driving, you might need to change your oil more often.
Resolution #2: Take better care of your tires
Your tires are the only points of contact between your family and the roads under you. That's why it's such a good idea to let us inspect your tires. We can look for uneven wear patterns and make sure you have enough tread depth to drive safely. We recommend getting a tire rotation every time you get an oil change. That simple approach will help your tires wear more evenly and last longer, giving you a safe new approach to the new year.
Resolution #3: Let us look after your battery
With the passage of time, your battery can build up corrosion on the cables and connections. We can clean off that corroded material to give your battery better connections and operate more efficiently. Ask us to do a load test to see if your battery has enough power to keep starting your Hyundai consistently. If your battery needs to be replaced, we have outstanding batteries available and we'll be happy to install one for you.
Resolution #4: Let us check your wheel alignment
It's not hard to knock your wheels out of alignment as you travel on the highways around Carmel NY or Ridgefield, CT. All you have to do is run over a big pothole or roll into a curb a little too hard. When your wheels aren't aligned properly, your steering isn't as accurate as it should be and that can be hazardous. One of our certified Hyundai technicians can check your alignment and get your wheels properly aligned so you can steer a safe new course into the new year.
Resolution #5: Let your tax refund help pay for a new car
If you're like a lot of taxpayers, you'll be getting a tax refund that could amount to $3,000, $4,000 or even more. That's a nice chunk of change that you can use to help make a down payment on a new Hyundai Tucson or Hyundai Santa Fe. When you can start 2024 behind the wheel of a new Hyundai SUV or sedan, you’ll put an enjoyable spin on the new year. We look forward to helping you get the new year started right at Danbury Hyundai in Danbury CT.
