Vehicle Tips
According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.
-
Vehicle Tips
The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)
-
Vehicle Tips
Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.
-
Vehicle Tips
Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.
-
Vehicle Tips
Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.
-
Vehicle Tips
A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.
-
Vehicle Tips
Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
-
Vehicle Tips
Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.
-
Vehicle Tips
Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.
-
Vehicle Tips
Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.
-
Vehicle Tips
Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.
-
Vehicle Tips
Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
-
Vehicle Tips
Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.
-
Vehicle Tips
Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.
-
Vehicle Tips
Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.
-
Vehicle Tips
Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.
-
Vehicle Tips
Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.
-
Vehicle Tips
Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.
-
Vehicle Tips
Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.
-
Vehicle Tips
Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Excellent experience. Was traveling back to Oregon with little kids, a dog, and spouse. Car wouldn't start after getting gas. Called the guys who then found me a tow truck that was there within 10 minutes. They ever offered to watch our dog. They quickly and correctly diagnosed the problem (seemed like a fuel pump but it was an ignition switch). Within 3 hrs we had the car towed, fixed, and were back in the road!! On top of it the crew there couldn't be nicer, really going the extra mile. Good shop in Hayes, KS.

Today we were driving from Kansas City to Denver when our vehicle started jerking while accelerating. It was very scary, so we pulled into Hays and went to Applebees. We called every repair shop in town and no one was open, because it was Memorial Day. A waitress overheard us talking and realized that we needed help. She mentioned that her father owned Broadway Automotive. She called him and Todd came down to the shop to meet us. He quickly diagnosed our vehicle's issue, retrieved the part from the part store, and fixed our car. He was extremely professional and helpful. We even chatted while waiting for the part and he was very pleasant and friendly. His shop was super clean and organized and we were very impressed! We love that he was an honest and helpful business man, a skilled mechanic, and that he went out of his way to help us on a holiday. We highly recommend Broadway Automotive!!

I have used Todd as my mechanic for 15 years and he has always been easy to deal with and fixed my vehicle right, the first time. Todd has handled my big jobs and small jobs, and he has on numerous occasions found a simple, easy, and cheap solution to one of my car problems. I have never walked away feeling like I purchased something that was not necessary. I highly recommend Broadway Automotive.
