It’s a well-known fact that regular tire rotation extends the life of your tires and improves performance and maintains your vehicle’s safety and value. Tires are rotated to achieve uniform wear for all tires despite their position or location. Each tire performs different tasks (such as steering in front- versus rear-wheel drive), therefore tires wear at different rates. Your tires should be rotated every 7,500 miles to prevent irregular tire wear. Keep your vehicle operating at peak performance with routine tire service.
It’s important to rotate your tires according to the correct tire-rotation pattern. Doing so will prolong the life of your tires and will reduce the risk of sudden tire failure. Your front tires encounter different tasks than the rear tires. A front-wheel-drive vehicle’s tires perform different tasks than those on a rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
At Berlin City Chevrolet Buick GMC we will carefully inspect your vehicle for free during every service visit. Examining your wheels is a big part of that inspection, we will likely recommend rotating your tires during your visit to help your tires wear evenly. Tires generally should last around six years before a change is recommended. However, overall driving habits and terrain may affect the lifespan of your tires. If your vehicle has a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, it will need to be reset after each tire rotation. You can count on your Certified Service experts to perform this simple procedure with every tire rotation they perform. For more information, see your Owner’s Manual for details.
