* The car care council has developed a service interval schedule to provide general guidelines for the regular maintenance of passenger cars, mini vans, pickups, and SUV’s. Intervals are built around an oil change every 3,000 miles, an accepted recommendation for the majority of motorists who are severe service drivers. Always consult your vehicle’s owner manual for specific recommendations by the car maker.
Bring your car down to First Choice Auto Service Center for a review of the best vehicle maintenance schedule for you.
