Because your tires are a critical component of your vehicle’s safety systems, you need to have them serviced regularly. Tires are the only part of the vehicle that touches the road surface and have a direct impact on your ability to stop, turn, and drive straight. If you live around Bardstown, Shelbyville, or Jeffersonville, you can bring your vehicle to Genesis of Louisville and let our service center take care of your tires.
Your tires get a lot of wear and tear as you cruise down back roads, commute on the highways, or maneuver your way through city streets. Each type of surface and location impacts your tires in different ways. To keep your tires performing their best, you need to have certain services performed on a regular basis.
Keeping your tires inflated at the correct pressure is one of the simplest and most effective tasks you can do. Adequate inflation helps to prevent flat tires and excessive wear. It also gives you more control over your vehicle and reduces wear on other systems, such as suspension and steering. We can check the air pressure and add air if your tires are under-inflated.
We’ll inspect your tires to see how much tread they have left. Our team will let you know if your tires are due to be replaced soon. When the tread gets too low, your tires may not have as much grip on the road as they should, which can lead to an accident. During our inspection, we’ll note whether the tires are wearing unevenly, which can be an indication of alignment issues or other problems.
Your tires wear differently, depending where they are located on your vehicle. Front tires get more wear on FWD models. The same is often true for RWD models. Rotating your tires allows them to wear more evenly.
Tires should be rotated every 3000-5000 miles in most vehicles. You’ll want to check your owner’s manual to see the recommended schedule for your model. Many people schedule tire rotation service at the same time as an oil change since the intervals are similar.
Along with regular service for tires, we perform repairs as needed. If you have a flat tire or a tire that’s leaking air and must be reinflated regularly, we can inspect it for damage. If the damage is in an area where a repair is possible, we’ll fix your flat tire, so you can get back on the road.
Along with flat tire repair, our service technicians can repair any issues with your tire monitoring service. TMS is designed to detect when your tires are underinflated and give you a warning before you have a flat tire. Sometimes, the service will fail because of a worn-out sensor or other issue. We can determine where the problem lies and get it repaired, so you can count on this service whenever you’re traveling.
