Ventura CA Volvo Services Specialists

It goes without saying that the tires for your Volvo are not cheap! To get the very most life from a set of tires, it is important they are well taken care of. Bringing your Volvo to ABC Auto Care in Ventura for a tire rotation is one the simplest services our shop offers, but also one of the most important and beneficial services our specialists do when it comes to maintaining optimal performance and safe driving for your Volvo in and around the Ventura area.

ABC Auto Care knows our clients, and our clients that are driving a Volvo around Ventura want to take care of their vehicle. When ABC Auto Care performs a tire rotation on a client's Volvo, the service does not simply involve swapping the tires from the right to the left side, or moving them from the front driver's side to the rear passenger side. When driving around Ventura, every turn of the steering wheel adds pressure to the front tires of the vehicle. This results in heat being created from the pressure, and resistance experienced by the tires. This is particularly true in Volvo vehicles that have front-wheel drive due to the fact that the tires in the front also supply most of the power to the Volvo.

When our technicians service the tires on a client's Volvo, they understand that during the life of a vehicle it is important to rotate the tires from front to rear several times to equalize the wear on the tire tread. The owner's manual that came with your Volvo should always be referenced prior to having maintenance such as a tire rotation completed at our tire shop in Ventura. The owner's manual provides the specified interval that tires on a Volvo should be rotated. Typically, most vehicle manufacturers recommend a tire rotation every 5,000 - 10,000 miles, but some electric vehicle tires may require a more frequent rotation interval.

Having a tire rotation is always a good time to see if the tires may in fact need replacement. ABC Auto Care tells our clients to try a simple test using a penny to check tread depth. Ensuring Abe Lincoln's head is upside down, place the penny in a tire's tread. If upon doing so, the top of Lincoln's head is not visible, the tires can be rotated as per the recommended interval to get the most life from the tires. Rather, when seeing the top of Lincoln's head after insertion in the tread, it is time to have the tires on your Volvo replaced. When needing replacement, ABC Auto Care can install any one of a variety of tire brands on your Volvo at our shop in Ventura. Oftentimes, our team will know of some great promotions on top-brand tires that would be ideal for a Volvo.
