Gerald Jones GMC’s Service Department is committed to helping you keep your vehicle in peak condition. Our range of maintenance services is designed to ensure your GMC remains reliable and performs at its best for years to come. Regular service not only prevents unexpected breakdowns but also helps you maintain the value and safety of your car.

1. Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection

Preventing a breakdown is always easier than fixing one. Our comprehensive multi-point vehicle inspections allow our skilled technicians to thoroughly check your vehicle for any signs of wear or potential issues. This service gives you a clear picture of your car’s health, identifies minor problems before they escalate, and helps you stay ahead of costly repairs. Regular inspections contribute significantly to extending your vehicle’s lifespan.

2. Oil Change

Routine oil changes are vital to keeping your engine running smoothly and efficiently. Fresh oil lubricates engine components, reduces friction, and prevents premature wear and tear. Neglecting oil changes can shorten your engine’s life and lead to expensive repairs or replacement. Typically, drivers should have their oil changed every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, but frequency may vary based on your driving habits and vehicle requirements.

3. Tire Service

Proper tire care ensures safety, fuel efficiency, and extended tire life. At the dealership, we check tire pressure to make sure it matches your vehicle’s specifications. Regular tire rotations prevent uneven wear, and wheel alignments help your tires last longer while improving your car’s handling and ride comfort. Keeping your tires in top shape is essential for smooth, safe driving.

4. Brake Service

Your brakes are critical for safety, and regular brake service keeps them performing optimally. Brake pads should be replaced when worn down to about a quarter of an inch. Our technicians also inspect brake linings, rotors, and other components to ensure everything functions correctly. Timely brake maintenance helps prevent brake failure and gives you confidence behind the wheel.

5. Battery Service

Though low maintenance, car batteries require periodic checks to avoid unexpected failures. We test battery voltage and acid levels and perform load tests to ensure your battery is charging properly. Catching battery issues early can save you from getting stranded. Typically, batteries should be replaced every three to five years depending on usage and conditions.
