The month of June is National Safety Month!
Here at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, we wanted to share some advice on vehicle safety and how we can help!
The key to improving vehicle safety is through tire awareness and maintenance. Here at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, we want to do our part in making sure you are educated in both. We offer videos, specials, and discounts on tire rotations, safety inspections, and tire pressure. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that approximately 9% of crashes are tire-related in some way.
In order to avoid tire-related crashes, it is important that you check tire pressure, tread depth, rotate tires, adjust, and avoid potholes. RightTurn blog described it perfectly below:
The acronym PART can help you remember to perform your routine tire maintenance. There are 4 major components in PART:
- P – Pressure
- A – Alignment
- R – Rotation
- T – Tread
Tire Pressure- Here at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, we put together a YouTube video of the low tire pressure warning light and what causes it. You should check your tire pressure regularly.
Tire Alignment- In the month of June, Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa is offering a Special on a 4 Wheel Alignment. For full details on this special, click HERE.
Tire Rotation- We recommend that you rotate your tires every 5,000-8,000 miles.
Tire Tread- TireRack.com describes Tread Depth below:
Tread depth is a vertical measurement between the top of the tread
rubber to the bottom of the tire's deepest grooves. In the United
States, tread depth is measured in 32nds of an inch. Because it is
difficult to accurately measure tread depth with a ruler, tread depth is
best measured with a tire tread depth gauge. When tires have neared the
end of their life, a U.S. Lincoln penny can also be used to confirm the
tire's tread depth. If Lincoln's entire head is visible, the tire is
worn to approximately 2/32" and is considered legally worn out in most
States.
Here at Larry H. Miller Nissan Mesa, we are offering a Complimentary 27-Point Vehicle Safety Inspection along with a Car Wash with any service visit! We want to make sure that no matter where your vehicle takes you, you are safe! For more information on this special and other current specials, click HERE.
