Want to make sure your GMC Sonoma is running just as it should? Schedule a Courtesy Check today.
When you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care for any service, we’ll automatically do a multi-point Courtesy Check. Why? So we can fully assess what your GMC Sonoma may need and address any issues as early as possible. What happens during a Courtesy Check? To start, one of our technicians will check the battery in your GMC Sonoma to see how much charge it has left – and determine if it may fail in the near future. We know that the best time to replace your battery is before you need to. The check will continue with a visual inspection of your GMC Sonoma's filters, lights, wiper blades, alignment, tires, hoses, belts and fluid levels. At the end of your Courtesy Check, you'll receive a report of your vehicle's condition. Courtesy Checks cost nothing but a few minutes of your time. If those few minutes can save you from repair costs down the road, they’re worth it!
We perform a Courtesy Check any time you bring your car to a local Firestone Complete Auto Care for service, but you can also request a Complete Vehicle Inspection for your 1996 GMC Sonoma if you suspect there may be a bigger problem. A Complete Vehicle Inspection can help diagnose bothersome changes in how your car runs or handles. During a Complete Vehicle Inspection, we’ll visually check everything that’s on the list for a Courtesy Check. Additionally, we’ll perform an examination (by hand!) of your exhaust system, steering and suspension, and brakes. The goal of this type of inspection is to unearth significant issues that might wreak havoc on your car if left unaddressed. Because you can only drive with confidence when you have confidence in the health and integrity of your GMC Sonoma.
Depending on your location, you may be able to take care of your state inspection or safety test at your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Inspections are performed on a state-by-state basis and requirements vary. If you need this type of inspection, call your store to be sure it’s offered before you take your vehicle in for service.
