What is the Benefits of Using Toyota Dealership for Auto Repair & Maintenance?
Where should you take your car to get it service or repaired? In the past, you may have been warned away from taking it to a dealership. But that advice is sorely outdated.
You’ve made a sound investment in your car, truck, or SUV. And you need it to be there for you every day, running smoothly. So what’s the best way to make sure that happens? One way is to spend months, maybe even years, trying out every garage and mechanic in your vicinity. Your task is to find one that cares, that is an expert on your vehicle, that tells you the truth, and that offers the best price.
That’s a pretty small needle to thread.
But you can find all of those things without spending time going through bad experience after bad experience. Because all of those criteria can be found right at your Toyota dealership. While there may have been a time that Gomer at the local garage could take care of any problem on any car, today’s cars are vastly more sophisticated in their design and technology.
You cause yourself a lot of unnecessary headaches and put your car at risk by leaving it with people who may or may not know what they’re doing? There are any number of reasons to get your service and repairs done at Rice Toyota, a dealership you already know you can trust.
Why use oil specifically recommended for your vehicle?
If you want to keep your engine running smoothly and avoid long term damage, no component is more important to your car than the oil, the lifeblood of any engine. But not oil is the same.
Rice Toyota’s expert technicians are versed like no one else in the Greensboro area on which oil is best for your car. That means they get you the right type, viscosity, thickness, and weight. They know how oil should run at different engine temperatures. They can spot any oil leaks you might have, dirty oil, or other potential problems. They know what to look for and where to look for it. They also know that hybrids have their own special oil needs.
Most of your local oil change places boast of “fast” or “quickie” oil changes. Do you want it done fast, or do you want it done right? The technicians at Rice Toyota take oil changes far more seriously than that. Oil is drained properly, and the perfect oil type applied. Over time, this makes a huge difference in the life and performance of your engine. Schedule your Express Service online today.
Repairing elsewhere may Void your Warranty
That new or certified pre-owned car you got at Rice Toyota most likely came with either a manufacturer or extended warranty. That gives you tremendous peace of mind, knowing that should anything go wrong, it will be repaired or replaced absolutely free of charge.
And yet, there are some people who take their cars places other than the dealership to get under-warranty repairs done. Whether it’s under-warranty repairs or recall repairs, there’s no reason to go anywhere other than the dealership. That’s where you’re going to get a superior job done and have a trouble-free customer experience.
Watch out for all of these things that risk voiding your warranty:
1) Use of the wrong parts
2) Failing to do routine maintenance
3) Going to an unauthorized repair facility that creates new problems
4) Doing repairs yourself
The Dealership has the Toyota Certified Technicians and Parts Required
At Rice Toyota, you won’t find a bunch of people learning how to fix cars. You’ll find only manufacturer-certified technicians. And these technicians must keep their certifications up to date so that they’ll be familiar with every new part, feature, or innovation that comes along.
They will know more about your make and model than anyone else you can find. They will conduct all service and repairs correctly like only true specialists can. They tend to really love cars and take personal pride in keeping your vehicle running in peak condition for years and years.
Even the diagnostic equipment used at the dealership is specialized. It’s highly unlikely other shops and garages in your area were willing to make the investment in this kind of equipment that reveals exactly what's going on with your car.
Rice Toyota Has All the Right Parts
Toyota cars, trucks, and SUVs were meticulously designed and manufactured. Enormous time, money, and skill went into doing so. So why be careless or frivolous about the parts you use to keep that finely tuned car running?
Every part in a car has a role to play, and it never operates alone. All of those parts interact with other parts to achieve optimum performance. Throwing an inferior part into the mix would be like adding our sales manager to the Charlotte Hornets starting lineup. Nice guy, but overall performance would come down.
Many independent repair shops use aftermarket or recycled parts. Or worse, maybe even parts that were never designed for your make and model. You never want to hear, “We’ll make it work.” Rice Toyota makes sure you get genuine Toyota parts that protect you against potential future and extremely expensive additional repair costs.
Tires Are Literally Where the Rubber Meets the Road
Every been to a tire store and gotten asked the question, “What kind of tire do you want and what size does your car take?” Did you know?
Chances are, unless you spend a fair amount of time with your vehicle’s manual, you didn’t. And if you don’t know, you can’t be sure that that tire store is giving you the kind of tires that’s best for your car.
The technicians at Rice Toyota understand that tires are vital for a smooth ride and for the safety of you and your loved ones. Tires should never be purchased based on price alone. There are many options, and your technician will be able to show you the tires that are best for your Toyota vehicle based on both your make and model and how you typically drive your vehicle.
By purchasing and checking your tires at Rice Toyota Dealership , you’ll enjoy manufacturer recommended brand-name tires – most of them in stock, service incentives, fantastic mileage warranties, the perfect size and performance grade, tread and air pressure checks, and expert balancing and rotation. Plus, dealerships can get their tires at significant discounts, meaning their prices will be as competitive as anywhere else you could go.
