Preventive Maintenance
Preventive maintenance is the care and protection of your vehicle against potential major auto repairs. Negligence is the most common and costly way to see money wasted on repairs that could have easily been prevented through regular service intervals. Depending on your vehicle’s manufacturer, avoiding preventive maintenance on certain parts and components has the potential to void warranty coverage. Car maintenance intervals have been designed to improve the reliability, durability, and resale value of your vehicle. Based upon your driving conditions, these service intervals may arrive sooner than you expect. For example, short commutes can actually hurt a vehicle because most engines thrive during long drives. Driving short commutes, experiencing stop-and-go traffic, and carrying heavy cargo are all aspects of severe driving. However, severe driving can also be reinforced by your environment. Hot or cold weather, mountainous or rough roads, and dusty or salty environments can all affect your vehicle. Because of these innumerable factors, adhering to a rigid service schedule can keep your vehicle operating at maximum efficiency for years to come.

Benefits of Preventive Maintenance
Vehicle components and parts naturally wear out over time, and road hazards can negatively impact critical components. By adhering to the preventive maintenance schedule in your vehicle owner’s manual, you will help ensure that your vehicle always runs at optimal conditions. Depending upon the vehicle’s service interval mileage, maintenance may include an inspection of your steering and suspension components, fluid filters, belts and hoses, brakes and axles, and other parts to help ensure that your vehicle functions efficiently. Routine maintenance may include checking the level of vital vehicle fluids. Other maintenance items you may see in your owners manual include checking exterior and interior lights, examining windshield wiper blades, checking the battery, inspecting hinges and locks, reviewing the level of ball joint wear, checking exhaust system components, and checking tire wear and inflation levels. We perform a variety of preventive maintenance services. Contact us to learn what we can do for your vehicle. It is important to schedule preventive maintenance to help your vehicle continue to work as intended. Remember that environmental conditions may affect your ideal preventive maintenance schedule. Depending upon your environment, you may need to seek more frequent inspections and replacements. Contact us to learn more about recommended car maintenance service intervals for your vehicle.

They gave the option to drop off the car overnight for next day service. They repaired that day, so a full day early! They are professional and prompt!

Very knowledgeable & helpful with information. Trevor Dow2024-10-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A bit of a late review ..(end of summer) but needs to be said … one day my son had an issue with his car at work & again on the way home …he works out of town so having a working car is paramount. I had called the garage right around closing time figuring it was likely to late and everyone was gone but I left a msg anyway …Dave called me back 20min or so PAST closing time to see what the problem was and was able to take care of it next day! Great local garage, friendly reasonable and always willing to do what they can to help you out. Thanks again for another great experience! Caroline P2024-10-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ONCE AGAIN EXCELLENT SERVICE on 10/15/24. I have written so many reviews on Water St Auto, I am like a broken record ... lol !! I kept updating the previous reviews, but I am not sure anyone saw those anymore. Our poor old vehicles are in for service more often these days and so that is why I had so many updates (I had to delete them so I could make a fresh review). Our "poor old vehicles" are the reason why we are so pleased with the folks at Water St Auto. These guys are incredible! They have looked after our vehicles for @ 30 years and although 10 years ago we moved an hour away from Cambridge, we still bring our vehicles here for any work that is needed. These guys are keeping our vehicles safe and on the road and we trust them 100%. Just recently, we had A/C issues in the van while it was super hot and last week, heater issues in the Toyota which we noticed after it got cold ... Both taken care of efficiently & effectively & of special importance ... economically! Thank you Water St Auto team : ) Carol Ariss2024-10-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dave and his crew again took care of my cars needs. Always able to get a convenient appointment when necessary. Having a trusting relationship these days is important. Thank you again to the amazing staff.
