Factory Scheduled Maintenance
Factory Scheduled Maintenance involves following a vehicle manufacturer's recommended service schedule to ensure optimal performance, safety, and longevity of the vehicle.
Factory Scheduled Maintenance is a series of recommended service procedures and checks outlined by vehicle manufacturers, based on specific mileage or time intervals.
This maintenance plan is tailored to the needs of each specific vehicle model and typically includes oil changes, tire rotations, brake inspections, fluid checks, and replacements, along with inspections of various mechanical and electrical components.
At Gateway Auto - Service & Collision Center, we provide comprehensive factory scheduled maintenance services, adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure your vehicle operates at its best, maintaining its warranty, and maximizing its lifespan.
When or why do you need it?
Adhering to Factory Scheduled Maintenance is essential for maintaining your vehicle's performance, safety, and value, and often for keeping its warranty valid.
These services are necessary at the intervals specified in your vehicle’s owner's manual, usually based on mileage or time (e.g., every 10,000 miles or annually). Regular maintenance can prevent minor issues from developing into major problems and can save money in the long run by avoiding costly repairs.
At Gateway Auto - Service & Collision Center, our expert technicians ensure that your vehicle receives all the necessary maintenance as per factory recommendations, providing you with peace of mind and a vehicle that remains in peak condition.

Frequently asked questions
If it's a car, we'll fix it. If it's a question, we'll answer it.
Some basic tasks like checking fluid levels or replacing filters might be manageable, but it is important to have a professional technician give your vehicle comprehensive inspections and service at regular intervals to protect the health and longevity of your vehicle.
Simply put, yes. If a timing belt fails, many cars will result in major engine damage when the belt goes. Especially with interference engines. This can cause broken or bent valves and damage to your pistons. The cost of repairing your engine with this damage is much greater than the cost of a timing belt replacement.
