Certified Buick & GMC Service in Wilson, NC

The Importance of Regular Vehicle Service & Maintenance

If you've been driving for any amount of time, you know that maintenance and repairs are best handled when they are planned for in advance.

But how often should you have your vehicle serviced? Generally speaking, your average vehicle will need servicing every 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 miles, although this isn't always the case. There are some matters involving your Buick or GMC that will require attention right away.

Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection

Our Buick and GMC Certified Service technicians at Medlin Buick GMC will complete a comprehensive look into your vehicle's tires, wiper blades, fluid levels, brakes, battery and more to keep your vehicle running exceptionally.

Brakes

Drivers from Wilson to Wendell, NC, know how important it is to have a solid set of brakes-but many aren't sure when it's time for a replacement.

Apart from showing obvious signs of wear and tear, your brake pads should be replaced every 10,000-20,000 miles. On the other hand, brake rotors should be replaced every 50,000-70,000 miles. This will ensure that your brakes stay in optimal condition, keeping you, your passengers, and other drivers much safer on the road.

Beyond the above guidelines, there will be times when you will need to bring your Buick or GMC in for a brake inspection right away.

If you notice any of the following signs of brakes headed for disaster, be sure to give us a call:

• Screeching Noises
• Rattling Noises Upon Braking
• Vehicle Vibration Upon Braking
• A Brake Pedal That Does Not Feel Firm When Pressed
• Grinding Noises, i.e., "Metal on Metal"

Oil Changes

An oil change isn't something you'll want to put on the back burner, as doing so may cost you your vehicle. Rather, be sure to have your oil changed at least every 5,000-7,000 miles, with some models requiring oil changes to be more frequent.

To know for sure, reference your Buick or GMC user manual for specifics on when you should have your oil changed and what type of oil should be used.

If you are unable to find this information, our helpful staff at Medlin Buick GMC will be more than happy to assist you in finding the best oil for your Buick or GMC vehicle type.

Tire Replacement Repair & Replacement

Not sure if you need new tires? We'd recommend ensuring that your tread meets the 2/32" requirement for depth, or you could be driving on tires considered out of code. To avoid riding illegally, aim to have your tires replaced every 25,000-50,000 miles.

If you are unsure of your tread depth, we can assist you in the process as well as point you towards options that will best fit your Buick or GMC vehicle type and needs.

Car Batteries

Ever had a car battery go out near Rocky Mount? Most of us know how frustrating this experience can be. To stay ahead of the game, consider having your Buick or GMC battery replaced every three years or so. However, if your car isn't starting, you notice your lights starting to dim, or there is a foul odor emitting from your Buick or GMC, be sure to get your vehicle to the shop right away.
