Looking for a sleek new ride? Lauren Fix appears in this Business Week segment that discusses some of the latest and greatest new autos at the NY Auto Show.
This can happen when you least expect it! - Everyone should know what to do in case a flat tire happens to you. This will include the new systems available on new vehicles. From changing a flat tire to other options available to get you back on the road.
Have you looked at your tires lately? Think about it this way, no matter what you drive-a car or truck-there are only 4 things touching the ground…your tires. This is called a “contact patch”.
“Are we there yet?” These are four familiar words that will be heard by parents in vehicles traveling on roads across the country. But are you taking the necessary precautions to make sure that your family is arriving “there” safely?
Cars are very significant investments-and can depreciation if you don’t do your part. Keeping your car looking new keeps its resale value up, makes it last longer, and helps avoid more costly headaches in the future
You’re belted in properly — but what about man’s best friends? Car safety is all around us, in the news and in our cars. We’ve been bombarded with car-seat safety for children, airbag safety for infants and seat-belt use for everyone. But how safe are your pets in your family vehicle?
Admit it. You find it hard to care about your tires. Even with all the recent headlines, you still don't check your tires' air pressure. You don't take the time to regard the depth of your tires' treads. And, honestly, have you ever peeked at the placard in your driver's side door (or maybe the glove compartment) to learn the correct air pressure for your personal vehicle?
Do you have a fluid leak under your car or truck? Here’s a simple way to be your own private investigator. If you’re not sure whether you are losing oil, transmission fluid, coolant or brake fluid, here is a simple, but effective method for finding who or what caused it!
Whether you’ve heard it called coolant or antifreeze -they both mean the same fluid that keeps your engine running cooler and will keep you off the side of the road.
We keep our expensive vehicles in the garage, or maybe we just keep lots of junk and keep the vehicles outside! There are many different things that we have in our garages and don't think about the dangers to children and pets!
The air trapped inside a vehicle on a 95° F day can heat up quickly; the steering wheel can reach 159° F; the seat can reach 162° F; and the dashboard can heat up to 181° F all this within a few hours or less. The temperature inside the vehicle without a sunshade actually becomes hot enough to bake chicken, eggs, bacon and cookies. I’ll prove it.
Was the last time you were asked questions about your car and your driving skills when you took your first test to get your drivers license? Statistically we live in our car one-third of the time - so do we really know what we are doing? Here are the facts, no myths about daily driving.
First and most important be proactive. That means making sure you're car is mechanically sound before the temperature dips and the streets get icy. Some vehicles have 4 wheel drives and heated seats. Many vehicles are designed for all season driving.
If you are in the market for a new car, here are a few money-saving tips. The most useful tips on buying and maintaining a new car may seem obvious – take a second look.
