The Importance of Seasonal Maintenance near Chicago, IL

The Importance of Seasonal Maintenance near Chicago, IL

As the seasons begin to shift from one to another, it becomes all the more important that you have your vehicle adapt to these conditions. You can do so when you visit our dealership near you, Evergreen Kia! In the interim, learn about the various tasks that these seasons demand from your vehicle. 

Interior Fluids

The temperature of your vehicle’s mechanics under the hood is paramount to its success when it comes to driving around the Chicago area in the summer and winter. To assist with this, there are various fluids under the hood that you must have topped off or replaced regularly. The first of these is oil, which should be exchanged around every 5,000 to 7,000 miles. It is responsible for keeping your engine from overheating by lubricating all the grinding components to reduce friction. Coolant is the next fluid, which is made up of antifreeze and water. This inhibits it from freezing or boiling under natural conditions, allowing it to regulate the temperature of your car’s components. This liquid should be replaced around every two years or 30,000 miles. 

Exterior Components

There are a number of exterior elements on your car you should have addressed at our Service Department. For instance, having a tire rotation every 5,000 to 7,000 miles will ensure that you have a stronger sense of traction in the summer and winter. To further bolster this, you may want to look into seasonal tires as well, since these will allow you to better adapt to the corresponding time of year. There are also all-season variants for those who would like tires that can be used regardless of the climate outside. We’d also like to mention that you should have your windshield wipers replaced whenever they show signs of waning quality. That way, you can have a clear view ahead when you embark on a trip across I-94. 

Benefits

A number of boons are brought by having your vehicle serviced with the changing of the seasons. For instance, your ability to handle your car will be heightened due to the increased traction and level of control thanks to tire rotations. Furthermore, your vehicle will also perform better as it doesn’t have to expend as much energy as you make your way home from Burnham Park This leads to savings over time, as well as your vehicle having a longer lifespan overall. Before you visit our location, consider taking a look at our service specials to see if you can get a hold of a great deal by bundling up different forms of maintenance!

Joe and John were a great tag team to ensure that I received a great experience, they were transparent, upfront, and did not send me in circles. I was in and out in 120 minutes, I received the SUV that I wanted and they did not try and sale me on anything extra that I did not need! Great team, atmosphere was friendly and everyone spoke and they were excited for me to ring the bell. I would definitely refer someone here and they ensured that any Kia concerns were addressed! Thanks Fellas! Keep making customers feel valued!

I can’t say enough good things about my experience at Evergreen Kia, and that’s all because of Casey Jones. He made what’s usually a stressful process feel effortless and exciting. Casey was honest, attentive, and truly cared about making sure I got exactly what I wanted. This was hands down the best car-buying experience I’ve ever had. Evergreen Kia is lucky to have him!

Shout out to Casey who felt like more of an advocate than a sales person. Also thank you to management who approved the great deal that we got! I would say to anyone buying a Kia, it only males sense to buy it here due to the benefits and warranties given by this particular dealership location.

Huge shoutout to DJ at Evergreen Kia for helping me get into my car yesterday! He was super patient, knowledgeable, and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. No pressure, just honest help and good energy. If you’re looking for someone who actually listens and wants to help you win, ask for DJ. Highly recommend!

(Translated by Google) undefined (Original) Was referred to this Kia and it didn’t disappoint, Joe worked with me through it all and helped me pick my car i love! I recommend if you go to any Kia to stop by in evergreen first, they dont try To play games and work with you on what you want! New to all of this but if i can I’d recommend going here first and you’ll see!
