There are several things you need to do to keep your car running its very best around Lexington. You know about the most common things, like oil changes and tire rotations. Things like that.
But other things aren't necessarily top-of-mind but definitely on our list when you bring your car in for routine maintenance at Bob Allen Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT. One of those services is your cabin air filter. We suggest you change every 12,000 to 30,000 miles.
How does your cabin air filter affect your car? As you drive around Lebanon, KY, the air filter keeps contaminants like smoke, dust, and pollen out of your cabin. This keeps the air in your cabin fresh and clean.
Much like the filter in your home's AC unit or vacuum, the more you drive your car through Nicholasville and beyond, the dirtier that filter can become. It becomes less effective the more clogged it gets with dust and debris. This can have a big effect on your car's performance.
By changing out your cabin air filter, you can remove any dirt, sticks, bugs, or anything else that might get caught up and prevent fresh air from reaching your cabin. It limits the allergens and pollutants that find their way into your car, allowing you to breathe easier.
But changing your air filter also helps your car run better. With a dirty filter, your car works harder to keep clean and cooler air flowing. This puts more stress on your engine. By changing out your filter, you take some pressure off your engine, allowing for a more fuel-efficient commute through Danville.
The next time you get an oil change with our team at Bob Allen Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT, go ahead and get that air filter changed. Not only do you get the fresh and clean air you deserve, your car will run better than ever. It is an inexpensive and easy way to improve your car's performance.
