October is Fall Car Care Month and a great opportunity to make sure that your vehicle is ready for winter and up-to-date on all maintenance. In celebration of Fall Car Care month, ECO Lube Center will be holding FREE vehicle check-up events in partnership with the Car Care Council on Oct 3, 2010 from 9AM to 12PM. We are the only one in California hosting this event!! We are also a “Green Certified & Clean Bay Business”.

Results of vehicle check-ups at community car care events across the country in April and October 2008 revealed that 80 percent of vehicles need service or parts. “Small steps that motorists take today can go a long way toward improving the safety and reliability of their vehicles,” said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. “Regular car care can also help avoid costly repairs down the road, saving both time and money.” Another way to celebrate Fall Car Care Month without even leaving home is to visit the Car Care Council’s free Car Care Guide online at www.carcare.org/car-care-guide.

The guide includes information on service interval schedules, questions to ask your technician and how to increase your vehicle’s fuel economy to save money on gas.
