This Valentine’s Day, Fall in Love with Your Car All Over Again ❤️🚗

February 14, 2025

Valentine’s Day is the perfect reminder to appreciate the things we love—our partners, friends, family, and yes, even our cars! Your vehicle is there for you through the highs and lows, whether it’s that epic road trip or a last-minute grocery run.


This February, let’s shift gears and talk about why loving your car isn’t just sweet—it’s smart. With proper care, you can keep your car running smoothly while saving money on costly repairs. Here’s how you can reignite the love for your car with Wayside Garage by your side.


Don’t Let Neglected Fluids Break Your Car’s Heart 💔

Think of your car’s fluids as its lifeblood. Without clean and properly filled fluids, your vehicle can’t perform at its best. Low or dirty fluids can cause overheating, braking issues, and transmission problems. But don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with 10% off any fluid service this February (excluding oil changes)!


💡 Top fluids to check this Valentine’s Day:

  • Brake Fluid: Keep your brakes responsive and ready to stop on a dime.
  • Coolant: Prevent overheating and maintain proper engine temperature.
  • Transmission Fluid: Ensure smooth shifting and protect gears from wear.
  • Power Steering Fluid: Enjoy easy, smooth steering for those long drives.

Show your car some love by booking a fluid check today and give it the hydration it deserves. 💧


Listen When It Tells You Something’s Wrong 🛠️

A healthy relationship means good communication, and the same goes for your car! If it’s flashing a warning light or making strange noises, don’t ignore it. Addressing small issues now can prevent major breakdowns later.


🔧 What to watch for:

  • The check engine light
  • Grinding or squealing brakes
  • Difficulty shifting gears


💡 Pro Tip: If you notice any of these warning signs, bring your car to Wayside Garage for a diagnostic check. We’ll help your car feel better in no time.


A Clean Car = A Happy Car 🚿✨

Don’t underestimate the power of a good wash and wax! Salt, dirt, and grime can cause rust and damage your car’s exterior, especially during the winter months. A clean car isn’t just about looks—it’s about protecting your investment.


💡 Show some love: Give your car a wash, wax the exterior, and vacuum the interior to keep it looking fresh. Bonus points if you clean the undercarriage to wash away salt buildup from winter roads.


Fall Back in Love with Driving

Remember the feeling of driving your car for the first time? Let’s bring that feeling back by improving your car’s performance. With regular maintenance—like tire rotations, oil changes, and fluid top-offs—you’ll enjoy a smoother, more fuel-efficient ride. Plus, a well-maintained car saves you money. Maintaining your current vehicle can cost as little as $0.30 per mile, compared to $0.80 per mile for a new car. Over five years, that’s a $12,500 savings​.


💡 Pro Tip: Stick to a regular maintenance schedule to avoid costly repairs and keep your car running like new.
