How to Extend the Life of Your CPO Vehicle
The Certified Pre-Owned vehicles from Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC that we sell at Curry Auto Center are top quality — and we want to help you keep them that way! Here are some tips to help you get the most out of your CPO car, truck, or SUV that you purchased from our GM dealership in Bloomington, Indiana.
Oil changes
Seasonal engine oil changes are key to any vehicle’s longevity, including the Chevrolet Equinox and Buick Encore. Pop open the hood and check your vehicle’s oil level at least once per month. Be sure to check on the condition of the oil, too — its color should be closer to amber or honey than coffee.
If your vehicle’s oil is dark and gritty, it’s time for an oil change at Curry Auto Center. Schedule an appointment to receive fresh oil and a new filter. When it comes to scheduling routine maintenance for your CPO vehicle, it’s a good idea to have the oil changed every 3,000-5,000 miles.
Keep an eye on warning lights
Your car’s dashboard warning lights are meant to help you monitor your vehicle’s health. If the “check engine” light flashes on, bring your vehicle to Curry Auto Center for diagnostics. We can precisely interpret your car’s warning codes, since this warning symbol can appear due to anything from a loose wire to an emissions system malfunction.
Since this warning light can have so many meanings, it’s best to bring your car in sooner than later to prevent the chance of permanent, expensive damage from occurring to your CPO car.
Choose genuine GM parts
If your vehicle needs a repair or a replacement, it’s best to choose genuine GM parts. These products are specifically made for your car, truck, or SUV’s make and model. Using authentic OEM parts ensures a top-quality fit and optimal durability, unlike third-party replacement components that may cause further issues or even void the warranty. At Curry Auto Center, our service technicians exclusively use genuine GM parts, so you can rest assured that your CPO vehicle is receiving a quality repair job.
