Spring is in the Air

Spring is in the air, which means warmer weather.  I don’t know about you, but when it gets hot outside I like my car to be cool inside.  Now is a great time to check and make sure that your air conditioning is working properly.  If you turn it on and it’s blowing warm air and you haven’t serviced it in 4 years, it probably just needs a service.  Over time condensation builds up in your system, which won’t allow it to blow cool air.  When we perform this service we also pressure test it to make sure there are now leaks.  If by chance there is a leak, we will be able to repair that for you also.  No matter what is preventing your A/C from keeping you cool, we will repair it and get you back on the road, don’t you sweat it.

National Walking Day

Today is National Walking Day.  I don’t know about you but I love going out for a stroll…in the park, with flowers, and fun things to look at.  I really don’t like walking on a busy road, in the rain, when I am supposed to be someplace else.  And it never fails…that is when your vehicle breaks down..right?  So, how can we stop this from happening?  By making sure that all of your recommended maintenance items are taken care of in a timely fashion.  At Long’s we keep track of all of those things for you and let you know far in advance what is going to be need when.  This way you can plan your time and you finances, and not have any surprises.  So don’t let this be you!  Take care of your car and it won’t let you down.

Spring Cleaning

Are you in the mood for some spring cleaning?  It’s easy to forget about your cabin air filter, because we don’t see it.  When the sun is out, we notice a dirty car and dirty windows…but not our cabin air filter.  Below is what a dirty and clean filter looks like.  If you haven’t checked it lately, it is probably a good idea to do so soon.  If yours looks like the one on the right, you and your loved ones are breathing in things like, dirt, bugs and mold.  If you don’t know how to check your filter, just drop by and we will show you where it is located and we can check it for you.  If it’s dirty we can get a replacement here lickity split and have you back on the road breathing nice fresh air.
