Vehicle Tips

According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.
Vehicle Tips

The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
Vehicle Tips

Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
Vehicle Tips

Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
Vehicle Tips

Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
Vehicle Tips

A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
Vehicle Tips

Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
Vehicle Tips

Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
Vehicle Tips

Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
Vehicle Tips

Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
Vehicle Tips

Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
Vehicle Tips

Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
Vehicle Tips

Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
Vehicle Tips

Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
Vehicle Tips

Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
Vehicle Tips

Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
Vehicle Tips

Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
Vehicle Tips

Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
Vehicle Tips

Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
Vehicle Tips

Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Car & Truck Care, near Port Charlotte, FL

I own 4 vehicles. One Cadillac and 3 Corvettes. A&E is the only place I take them. I have had multiple repairs done there. From mechanical to their body shop. Never anything less than 5 Star treatment. Marco is a delight to work with. I highly recommend A&E for all your automotive repair needs. G.D.

Collision Repair Services, near Port Charlotte, Florida

Just wanted to thank A&E for fixing my collision damage. They did all they could to keep the cost down and did stick to the original quoted price. A&E did the work in a timely fashion and kept me informed of their progress.

Brakes, near Port Charlotte, Georgia

Stopped in this shop with a bad problem with my brakes, I was in town to visit my brother and his family discovered a major issue with my front brakes. The young girl who took all my information was extremely well versed with the knowledge of what I needed and the importance of this repair as I was about to head home to Georgia, a ten hour journey. I was able to talk with the mechanic personally and that the repair would get me home safely. I was extremely happy with both the customer service and the repair service. Jeep ran great all the way with no problems at all. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone. I also met the owners extremely nice people, even gave my niece and myself tee shirts with the company logo. If I lived in Port Charlotte this would be my go to repair shop.

Car & Truck Care, near Port Charlotte, FL

I needed to have a brake light bulb replaced. It was a Saturday afternoon and I stopped to check if they were open. Went to the door and it was locked so I started to leave and someone came out and ask what I needed. I told them and then he took a look at it and went back inside and came out with a new bulb and replaced it. I ask him what I owed and he did not charge anything. I was surprised to get this kind of service. I strongly recommend this shop and I will be using them in the future.

Batteries, near Port Charlotte, Fl

I've been to A&E Auto multiple times the building is clean, their professional friendly they let you know what's going on with your vehicle. They're always in touch with you. She at the front desk is always professional and Sheila goes out of her way to make you know what's going on I recommend them highly and I will go there all the time. I am very happy with the service.
