Your tires are subject to constant wear as you drive due to friction with the surface. They can also be damaged by environmental conditions like extreme heat or cold and even direct sunlight. Safe driving requires good tires, and as your Buick dealership, we’d like you to know some of the signs you need to visit us for new tires.

Signs You Need New Tires from Your Buick Dealership

Low Tread

The tread is the raised section of a tire that’s in contact with the surface. Due to this surface contact, it’s also the part of the tire that will wear the fastest due to the constant abrasion. It’s interspersed with grooves that serve to channel water or mud backward to prevent it from collecting underneath the tread and potentially causing the tires to skid.

As the tread level drops, you’ll notice that your brakes take longer to work, and handling, particularly on wet surfaces, becomes more difficult. The minimum safe tread depth is 2/32″. If your looks low, you can test it with a tread depth gauge or by visiting our service department where we’ll check it for you. If your tread is low, we can replace any worn tires so you can drive safely again.

When you own a GMC or Buick vehicle, you are driving a symbol of quality, performance, and style. To ensure that your investment continues to serve you well, it’s crucial to prioritize regular car maintenance. Here are a few tips from your GMC dealer about how to maintain your vehicle: not only to keep it in great shape but also to prolong its lifespan.

Regular Oil Changes

Oil is the lifeblood of your engine, and regular oil changes are vital for keeping it running smoothly. GMC and Buick vehicles require high-quality synthetic oil, so it’s essential to follow the manufacturer’s recommended oil change intervals. Regular oil changes help lubricate your engine’s moving parts, reduce friction, and prevent costly engine damage.

Hey GMC fam! We get it – you love your ride to shine just as brightly as your smile. But what happens when those headlights start losing their sparkle? It might be time for a little headlight TLC. Let’s dive into some clear signs that your GMC might be craving some new headlights.

1. Dimming Headlights – The Telltale Sign

Ever notice that your once-bright headlights are starting to dim? It’s not just your imagination. Headlights can lose their luster over time, and if they’re not illuminating the road like they used to, it’s a clear signal that it’s time for an upgrade. Dimming headlights can impact your visibility, making nighttime driving a bit more challenging.

When your battery starts to die, your car will give you a few clues. If you notice any of these, it’s important to get a new car battery from your GMC dealership as soon as possible. If you wait too long, there can be damage to the electrical components of the vehicle if the battery fully fails, and, of course, you could end up stranded when you least expect it.

Electrical Jitters

Car Battery

Pay attention to the quirks in your car’s electrical system. Do your radio speakers crackle or dim intermittently? Do your gauges flicker or malfunction briefly? These seemingly minor glitches can be early signs of a struggling battery, unable to maintain consistent voltage throughout its network.

Infotainment Issues

Modern cars rely heavily on digital displays and touchscreens, so if your navigation system loses its saved locations, your radio forgets your presets, or your clock resets itself, a failing battery could be the culprit. These memory-dependent features are particularly vulnerable to fluctuations in power supply.

A healthy radiator is essential for your GMC, as its job is to remove heat from your engine. Combustion and the movement of hundreds of components generate large amounts of heat. If your engine gets too hot, it can suffer serious, even fatal damage. As your GMC dealer, we want to tell you about some signs you need to visit us for a radiator repair.

Leaking Coolant

Liquid coolant is a mixture of antifreeze and water, and it absorbs heat. As it moves through your engine, it collects the heat and transports it to the radiator. When the coolant enters the radiator, it’s diverted into rows of thin aluminum tubes. Air flows in through the grille and cools the hot fluid in the tubes. Once the coolant has cooled, it circulates through your engine again.

Coolant is available in bright colors like pink, blue, yellow, and green, which makes a leak easy to spot. If your engine is leaking coolant, the pressure in the cooling system will drop. As the pressure in the system drops, the remaining coolant will move slower, and the cooling system will fail. Our technicians will trace the source of the leak and permanently seal it to fix this problem.

Your vehicle is a masterpiece of engineering, and maintaining its peak performance is crucial for a smooth and safe ride. One often overlooked aspect of car maintenance is tire rotation, and the team at Earnhardt Buick GMC is here to shed light on the benefits of this essential service.

1. Extended Tire Lifespan

Regular tire rotations can significantly extend the lifespan of your Buick and GMC tires. The front and rear tires of your vehicle wear differently due to factors like steering and weight distribution. By regularly rotating your tires, you ensure that each tire wears evenly, preventing premature wear on specific treads. This not only saves you money on frequent replacements but also contributes to a safer driving experience.
