Fall Maintenance Tips
If you have a car in the local area, it is important for you to make sure that you take care of it. That means investing in routine maintenance. Sadly, there are a lot of people who believe that they only need to take their car to the shop when there is something wrong with it. Of course, it is better to prevent problems from developing with your car than to fix them after they have already appeared. We are Anderson Buick GMC, and it would be our pleasure to help you take care of your car. With the weather beginning to get colder outside, what are some of the most important maintenance tips that you need to keep in mind?
1. Check the Heater and Air Conditioner
There are a lot of wild temperature swings that take place during the fall, and you need to make sure that your car has a working heater and air conditioner. At Anderson Buick GMC, we can take a look at your heater and air conditioner for you, making sure that both are working properly. For example, you may need to change the air filters in your air conditioner. Or, there might be a problem with the vents that power your heater. We can address these issues before they lead to more problems, so schedule an appointment with our team today.
2. Rotate the Tires
You also need to rotate the tires. You never know when you might encounter snow, and you need to make sure that your tires are ready. You need to rotate your tires because the tires at the back of your vehicle do not wear at the same rate as the tires at the front of your vehicle. We can rotate your tires for you, making sure that they last as many miles as possible. Furthermore, we can improve the handling of your vehicle by rotating your tires for you.
3. Top Off the Fluids
In addition, you should make sure that you top off the fluids in your vehicle during the fall. There are plenty of fluid levels that may begin to drop, and if you allow them to get too low, your vehicle may not function properly. For example, your coolant in your air conditioner might be a bit low. We can top it off for you. Your windshield wiper fluid level may have dropped a bit low as well. It would be our pleasure to top it off. If you are concerned that your brake fluid might be a bit low, we can handle that for you as well. If you want your car to run as well as possible, you need to pay attention to the fluids.
4. Inspect the Brakes
Speaking of your breaks, it would be our pleasure to inspect your brakes for you as well. You must make sure that your brakes bring your car to a complete stop as quickly as possible, particularly in the event of an emergency. If you want your brakes to do so, you need to make sure that your brake rotors are not worn out. You should expect your brake rotors to last between 50,000 and 100,000 miles, so if your brakes are getting to that point, allow us to inspect your rotors for you. Furthermore, if your brake pads are worn out, we can replace those for you as well. If you want your car to be as safe as possible, be sure to inspect the brakes regularly. Our team can help you.
Schedule Your Next Maintenance Check With Anderson Buick GMC
In the end, these are just a few of the most important maintenance tips that you need to follow if you want your vehicle to run as well as possible during the fall. As the leaves begin to change color, it should be a reminder for you to schedule your next maintenance check. At Anderson Buick GMC, we always put the needs of our drivers first, and it would be our pleasure to help you take care of your routine maintenance as well. Contact us today to speak to a member of our team, and make sure you schedule your next maintenance check with us.

Top 5 Benefits of Buying a Used Vehicle
Between insurance, monthly payments, taxes, maintenance costs, and fuel, owning a brand new vehicle can be quite an expensive proposition. On top of that, many new vehicles depreciate by as much as thirty percent by their first birthday, and another ten percent over the next two years. Savvy buyers often score huge discounts by purchasing a used vehicle. Also, going the used car route not only saves money up front, it can save thousands of dollars over the life of your ownership, as well. In all, there are many benefits to purchasing a used car, truck, or SUV as opposed to new, and here are five of the best:
Benefit Number One – Buying a Used Vehicle Saves Money
Along with saving big on the sticker price, buying a used vehicle saves money in a variety of ways. A lower initial price means lower taxes on your purchase. Depending on the purchase price and location of the vehicle, the savings could easily be in the thousands. Also, dealerships typically base many of their fees on the vehicle’s sale price. While not as imposing as taxes, dealer fees can also add up quickly. The same goes for insurance. Insurance companies base their rates on the replacement cost of the vehicle that they insure. So it stands to reason that a car that sells for $60,000, for instance, will have higher premiums than one that sells for $25,000.
Benefit Number Two – Buying a Used Vehicle Leads to Less Depreciation
Many new vehicles lose as much as 20 percent of their initial sticker price the minute they leave the lot, and another ten percent over the next year. Some three-year-old vehicles sell for as little as half of their original MSRP. On the flip side, between the ages of three years old and six years old, some vehicles actually retain almost 90 percent of their value. So, while buying new offers the pleasure of owning a vehicle fresh off the assembly line, first owners will bear the brunt of depreciation.
Benefit Number Three – Buying a Used Vehicle Offers More Bang for the Buck
Car buyers often find that the vehicle they really want, or need, is out of reach financially. Some drivers enjoy the higher level of amenities and driving pleasure that comes with owning a high-end luxury vehicle, but don’t have anywhere near the budget. Vehicles that were not in their budget when brand new may be easily afforded when even just lightly used. Also, someone with a family of six, for example, may need a large SUV. They may have no choice but to buy it pre-owned, as full-sized SUVs can be quite expensive on the new car lot. Pre-owned vehicles typically offer much more “bang for the buck.”
Benefit Number Four – The Kinks Have Been Worked Out
Thanks to higher initial quality, many modern vehicles easily reach 100,000 miles without skipping a beat. Drivers no longer need to worry about reliability as the odometer reaches the six digit figure. Some manufacturers even offer 10-year or 1000,000- mile warranties. A well-maintained vehicle can provide the same driving pleasure for the second and even the third owner, as it did for the first. An accident-free, pre-owned vehicle that’s been detailed offers an almost identical ownership experience to its factory-fresh counterpart. Also, by their third or fourth year, most used vehicles have had any kinks with the model year worked out. Any recalls, or issues – large or small – have been taken care of, for free, by the dealer or the manufacturer.
Benefit Number Five – It’s Easier to Find the Right Vehicle
The internet makes finding the perfect new vehicle considerably easier than in days gone by. Shoppers can read reviews, compare features and prices between different manufacturers, and ultimately decide on the perfect choice for their budget and lifestyle. They settle on one vehicle, and one vehicle only. But, used car buyers have the subtle advantage of not feeling locked into any particular brand or model. Used car buyers tend to look at a wider variety of vehicles and get a better feel of what works for them.

The display also projects driver-assist warnings like Lane Departure and Forward Collision Alerts. Off-roaders enjoy inclinometer information that measures fore and aft tilt, front tire angle, and left and right tilt. All this gets transparently projected onto the lower section of the driver’s windshield area.
Thirteen available camera views let drivers confidently maneuver through their surroundings. The Yukon Denali’s High Definition Surround Vision features a rear camera mirror that offers a wider and less-obstructed view behind the vehicle than that of a traditional rearview mirror.

The digital information center comes with a choice of four different themes.
Safety and Driver-Assist Tech
The 2022 Yukon Denali takes safety to the next level thanks to industry-leading driver-assist technologies.

Also standard on all models, Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and GMC’s Front outboard Passenger Airbag Sensing System take safety to the next level on the new Yukon Denali.
The Yukon’s Hitch Guidance System employs the Rear Vision Camera display to provide drivers with guidelines to help align their vehicle with a trailer. The system also provides a camera view of the trailer while driving.
Back road drivers will appreciate the Yukon’s IntelliBeam feature, which automatically turns the vehicle’s high-beam headlamps on and off according to surrounding traffic conditions.
The configurable Teen Driver feature lets parents activate customizable vehicle settings for each individual key fob. The feature not only helps encourage better driving habits, it can also limit certain vehicle features and automatically turn on a number of safety systems.

1. Change the Oil on Time
First, you need to make sure that you change the oil on time. Changing the oil is important because it helps you take care of the engine.

If you have questions about which type of oil is best for your vehicle, reach out to us to speak with our team. We would be happy to help you.
2. Take Care of the Tires
Next, you also need to make sure that you take care of the tires. In general, you need to rotate your tires at least once per year or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. Rotating the tires is important because it ensures that they wear evenly. This can help you get the most miles out of your tires. Furthermore, when you rotate your tires, you need to get the tire pressure checked. Make sure your tires are at the right pressure if you want to maximize your gas mileage. If you think that your treads are a bit low, it would be our pleasure to help you find new tires for your vehicle as well.
3. Check the Battery
When you take your vehicle to the shop for maintenance, you also need to check the battery. The battery is responsible for starting your vehicle. If you turn the key and all you hear is a clicking noise, there could be a chance that the battery is dead. In general, you should expect to get between three and five years of use out of your battery. We would be happy to check your battery for you to see if it has any life left on it. If you believe you need a new battery, we can help you find the right one.
4. Change the Air Filters
You should also make sure that you change the air filters in your vehicle from time to time. You have two sets of air filters in your vehicle. You have a set of air filters in the cabin, which are responsible for making sure everyone in the cabin has clean air to breathe, and you have a set of air filters in the engine, which is responsible for making sure your engine has clean air with which to work. You need to rotate the air filters on time if you want your engine to last as long as possible.
5. Get the Brakes Checked
Finally, you need to make sure that you get the brakes checked as well. When you slam on the brakes, you want your vehicle to come to a stop and avoid an accident. We would be happy to check your brake pads for you to make sure they still have life left on them. If your brake pads are worn out, we can replace them for you. We can also check your brake rotors to make sure they are working as they should. Count on the team from Anderson Buick GMC to handle all of your maintenance.

We are Anderson Buick GMC, and it would be our pleasure to work with you to take care of your vehicle. Take a look at some of the most important tips for maintaining your GMC below, and give us a call today to schedule an appointment with a member of our team.
Change the Oil and Rotate the Tires
One of the most common maintenance tasks you need to take care of involves an oil change and a tire rotation. It is important for you to change the oil on time, every time if you want the engine to last as long as possible. Oil is responsible for lubricating the internal components of your engine. It reduces the wear-and-tear among those internal components, adding valuable years of life to your engine.
You also need to rotate the tires. This is important for making sure your tires last as long as possible. By rotating your tires, you make sure that they wear evenly. That way, you can get as many miles out of them as you can. You need to change your oil and rotate your tires at least once per year or every 10,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Take Care of the Brakes
Next, you must make sure you take care of the brakes as well. When you slam on the brakes, you want your car to stop as quickly as possible. The only way that will happen is if you take care of them. You need to keep an eye on the brake rotors, making sure they are rotated on time when they wear out. You also need to keep an eye on the brake pads. They will eventually wear down as well, and you need to swap them out if you want your brakes to continue to work well. If you are looking for a team that can help you take care of your brakes, it would be our pleasure to assist you.
Keep an Eye on the Battery
You should also make sure that you keep an eye on your battery. In general, you should get between three and five years of use out of your battery. If your battery is starting to reach the end of its life, we can take a closer look at it for you. We will measure the ability of your battery to hold a charge, and if it is having issues, we will help you find a new one. You need a reliable battery if you want your car to start when you turn the key, and we can help make sure that happens.
Watch the Fluid Levels
Finally, you need to keep a close eye on your fluid levels as well. If your fluids start to get low, the performance of your car will start to suffer. You need to make sure the windshield wiper fluid level is appropriate if you want to keep a clean windshield in the middle of a rainstorm. You also need to make sure that your coolant level is appropriate if you want your air conditioner to function appropriately. Finally, you must make sure your brake fluid level is appropriate if you want your brakes to behave as they should. Count on us to top off your fluids for you.

At Anderson Buick GMC, we’re proud of the Buick selection that we have in stock. Stop by and our friendly sales consultants will be happy to answer your questions or take you on a test drive. Need some help picking the right one for you? Here are a few suggestions.
Entering the Brand
If you’re eager to experience the brand for yourself, the 2022 Buick Encore stands out as your most affordable option. This versatile subcompact easily manages city traffic while offering the flexibility to carry up to five or 48.4 cu. ft. when you fold down the seatbacks in the second row. You’ll gain more confidence under uncertain conditions when StabiliTrak® helps you maintain control when it detects loss of traction.
You get such convenience as Keyless Open and Start. Leave your key fob in your pocket and you can push a button to unlock the doors. Once inside, you can step on the brake pedal and press the Start button to get going. Download the MyBuick Mobile app to your smartphone and add Remote Access. You can then start and stop the engine, or lock and unlock doors when you’re away from the vehicle.
Getting Sporty
The 2022 Encore GX ST announces your athletic attitude with an exclusive mesh grille that shines with inserts in high-gloss black and red. Go with the Black Roof Package to highlight your choices with a black roof, black roof rails, and black mirrors. With this choice, your options for body colors are Satin Steel Metallic, White Frost Tricoat, or Chili Red Metallic. When the seatbacks are down, you’ll have up to 50.2 cu. ft. to stash camping and sports gear.
Your style is backed by a 155-horsepower 1.3-liter Turbo that helps you avoid gas stations with the Stop/Start system. It shuts down the engine when you stop and restarts it again when you’re ready to move. The EPA-estimated fuel economy reaches 32 MPG on the highway and 29 MPG in the city.
Compact Convenience
You’ll get more space for your family or yourself with the 2022 Buick Envision. It refines your driving experience with aggressive but sophisticated aerodynamic lines that boost fuel economy while reducing wind noise. Thrill to 228 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque from the 2.0-liter Turbo ECOTEC 4-cylinder and its nine-speed automatic transmission. Continuous Damping Control constantly reads the road and adjusts the suspension to optimize your ride.
To stay connected to family and work, take advantage of the Buick Infotainment System and its color 10.2-inch diagonal touchscreen. It wirelessly links your phone, thanks to support for Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto®. You can send and receive text messages, make phone calls, and access select apps while you’re on your drive.
Family Ride
You can keep the family together on your road trips with the 2022 Buick Enclave. It seats up to seven people in three rows while keeping the cabin calm with Active Noise Cancellation and QuietTuning™ technology. The Smart Slide second row makes it easier for passengers to access the third row. Look up to the sun and stars through the available Power Moonroof and its Power Rear Sunshade.
Keeping everyone safe are driver assists like Forward Collision Alert, which warns you about hitting the next car. Automatic Emergency Braking can prevent the accident. Front Pedestrian Braking gives you the same advantage when people are in your path. When you back out of a parking spot, Rear Cross Traffic Alert tells you of cars crossing your reverse route.
Top of the Line
The top of the brand belongs to the 2022 Enclave Avenir, which crafts your highway experience with the Whisper Beige or Ebony-themed cabin. You’ll like the feel of leather upholstery as you’re enveloped by wood tones and brushed chrome accents. The front seats can also get built-in heating, ventilation, and soothing massage. Outside, the 20-inch aluminum wheel with Pearl Nickel finish and the exclusive grille heighten the look of luxury.
On long road trips, engage Adaptive Cruise Control, which puts a safe gap between you and the next vehicle by automatically adjusting your speed. To ease tight maneuvers, HD Surround Vision merges the views from multiple cameras to display a virtual top-down view of the area around you.
