At Ourisman Volvo Cars of Frederick, our service center strives to give you the opportunity to have all your auto repair and maintenance needs met around areas like Mount Airy and Damascus, MD. This includes tire rotations, which is a vital service that should be done regularly to get the most out of your tires and give you the right amount of grip on the road.
As you drive, your tire tread levels will wear will be reduced. In order to not go through a set of tires quickly by keeping your tires in the same spot, a tire rotation moves these around so it reduces tread wear and makes sure one isn't more worn down than the other. This not only makes it cost-beneficial to get a tire rotation, but not rotating tires is a safety issue for your vehicle as dangerous tread levels can mean a loss of stopping power and grip on the road, which is not good for you, or other drivers around you.
There are a few signs you need a tire rotation. First and foremost, if you've been driving your vehicle for a long time without one, make an appointment soon, because the longer you go, the more potential tire wear and issues you might experience. Other indicators include less stopping power and braking. If you notice you need a new set of tires, you can test this at home with a penny. When you place the head of Lincoln into the tire tread head down, enough tread means that the head is mostly covered. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, you'll need new tires.
The suggested interval for tire rotations is around 6,000 miles, which gives them the chance to last as long as possible. We'll of course send you reminders if you're a regular customer of ours so you can be on top of your Volvo's tire rotations and other services. By doing this you are giving your set of tires the best chance at lasting as long as they can, plus our team can also inspect your tires to make sure there aren't any issues with them that should be addressed as well. We use the latest mounting and balancing tools to give you an exact fit to specification for your Volvo, or any other make and brand that we can service here at our maintenance center, giving you confidence when you leave your car or SUV in our hands.
