The Answers to Your Questions About Hyundai Service

You know your car needs maintenance, but you’ve got questions about Hyundai service. Here at Hyundai of Cookeville in Cookeville, TN, we have answers…
 
How Much Does Car Maintenance Cost?

A lot less than repairs do! Flushing the fluids in your transmission is less expensive than purchasing a whole new transmission. Topping off fluids and changing filters are quick, easy, and relatively affordable services that can extend the life of your vehicle, and prevent costly damage. 
 
Plus, you can take advantage of our Hyundai service specials and coupons, making maintenance even more budget friendly.
 
Why Is My Check Engine Light On?

It could be as simple as a loose gas cap, or it could be a problem with your catalytic converter—along with a dozen other reasons. The only way to know for sure why that light keeps flashing, or why it’s glowing steadily, is to bring your auto in for an inspection. 
 
Our service technicians will run diagnostic tests to determine the cause, and let you know what needs to be done to fix the issue. One thing you shouldn’t do? Ignore the light. If you do, a simple issue could turn into a big problem.
 
How Often Should I Have My Oil Changed?

Technology has gifted us with the “change oil” light, so whenever you see it lit up, you should schedule vehicle service online. 
 
If you’re not driving very often, or you’re not accumulating miles, the light might not come on. You still need to have your oil changed, though. Even if it’s just sitting in your car, oil can break down, get sludgy, and stop providing necessary lubrication to your engine. 
 
Why Do Tires Need To Be Rotated?

The grooves in your car’s tires are called treads. The treads are what help your car grip the road, and allow you to have a smooth ride. Just like the bottom of your shoes get worn down over time, so do the treads of your tires. 
 
Not all four tires wear down at the same time, though, or at the same rate. It may be that your rear passenger side tire is more worn than the front driver side tire. Here at the service center of your local Hyundai dealer, we’ll switch your tires around on the vehicle so the treads can wear down at a more even rate.
