Fall is arriving, and we know the team at our dealership is excited about everything that comes along with this season. Before you get too excited about changing leaf colors, football tailgates, and family festivities, consider scheduling seasonal maintenance at our service center. Our certified team specializes in Toyota vehicles, meaning we have training and expertise tailored to these cars. Learn more about our top recommendations to prioritize scheduling this fall season.

Get Your Oil Changed

Oil is the lifeblood of your engine. It keeps your powertrain lubricated and internal temperatures regulated. In addition, oil whisks away debris and dirt that can corrode the efficiency and power of your engine. When the temperatures around Clarksville begin to drop, your car's oil will thicken, reducing its ability to function properly. When you bring your vehicle by for an oil change, our team will ensure that your model's oil is in the right viscosity so that it can perform optimally and prevent engine issues that come with neglecting an oil change.

Seasonal Tire Care

While driving around Russellville and other Kentucky roads without winter tires is likely safe, you shouldn't neglect tire care this fall. Tire care is essential to safe driving, no matter the season. However, in the fall, your tire pressure drops one PSI (pound per square inch) for every ten-degree drop in temperature. This means that you should proactively be refilling your tires. In addition, be on the lookout for any balding, punctures, or uneven wear that can occur with tire pressure drops or tires that have yet to be serviced. Our service center can always get your tires up to snuff; we'll ensure they're properly inflated, rotate them to prevent irregular wear, and replace them if needed.

Replace the Wiper Blades

Even if your wiper blades are functioning well, swapping them out for the season is not a bad idea. The cold air can cause your wiper blades to split and crack. Hard rain, sun, and other environmental factors also hinder your wiper blades' effectiveness. We can install winter wiper blades that are made to withstand freezing temperatures, harsh wind, and road debris. When you choose to take care of this seasonal service in the fall, you can avoid waiting on an appointment or the chance that our genuine parts will be out of stock by the time winter rolls around.

Check the Battery

The battery for your car is another important aspect to take care of in the fall. Your car's battery helps provide power and helps start the vehicle. The cold weather reduces its effectiveness, especially if it's an old component or is experiencing any malfunctions. It's smart to schedule a battery check before the cold weather fully sets in. Our certified team can evaluate if you need a replacement or not. If you do, we'll always equip your model with a genuine OEM battery, too.
