Cars are expensive, both new and used. And keeping your vehicle
in good working condition during the sub-freezing temperatures
of winter and summer's searing heat takes a real professional.
Since your car represents one of the bigger investments you
and your family will make, it makes sense to keep it in top shape
with high quality repairs and preventive maintenance from Pinecrest
Exxon, at 6566 Little River Turnpike in Alexandria.
"Many people do not realize the importance of regular
maintenance to keep their cars running well and prevent problems
down the road," says Ramon Sethi, owner of Pinecrest Exxon.
"People are hanging onto their vehicles longer; they don't
want to have to replace them every few years," Sethi says,
"and cars need more than just regular oil changes to stay
in good shape."
Pinecrest Exxon's AIS-certified auto mechanics offer a wide
range of service, from simple oil changes to fuel injection service
to major engine repairs, at prices far below dealership repair
prices. "Our main objectives at Pinecrest Exxon are quality
and service," he adds. "We have hundreds of regular
customers, so we must be doing something right!"
Sethi, who owns two other service stations as well, has been
owner of Pinecrest Exxon for about a year, and says he was drawn
to the business by its reputation for great service. He says
his commitment to quality service has expanded the station's
business even more.
Pinecrest Exxon offers three different scheduled maintenance
packages for cars at various suggested mileage levels. For example,
the Schedule A maintenance package includes changing the engine
oil and filter, inspecting the cooling system and transmission
fluid level, adjusting tire pressure, inspecting and topping
off all fluids and checking the wiper blades, inspected belts
and hoses, rotating the tires, checking the lights and road-testing
the vehicle, all for only $39.95 -- roughly half the price that
would be charged at a dealership. This package is recommended
every six months or 7,500 miles.
Every 15,000 miles or once each year, Pinecrest Exxon recommends
its Schedule B maintenance package, which includes an oil and
filter change plus draining and flushing the cooling system,
