Whether you’re looking for cargo space, modern creature comforts, or greater on-road control, the 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT is a sleek hatchback with a lot to offer. Learn more about the new Elantra GT in our overview below.

Breaking Down the 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT

Performance

The 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT has a surprising amount of power: 161 horsepower from its 2.0L GDI 4-cylinder engine and 201 horsepower from its available 1.6L Turbo GDI 4-cylinder engine configuration.

Safety

Driving is an important part of our lives, but one we often take for granted. If you don’t take the steps to keep your car in good shape, you may be facing costly and unnecessary repairs. So what basic car maintenance can you have done to make sure you stay on the road?

Take a look at our list below.

Car Maintenance and Service You Simply Can’t Skip

Brakes

We use our brakes constantly. Whether we’re in stop-and-go traffic or are slowing down to get off our exit on the highway, properly working brakes make all the difference. So how do we make sure they’re in working order?

The easiest thing to do is to keep your ears open. A squeaking or squealing sound means that the indicator is warning you that your pads are worn. If you wait until you hear a grinding, you’re likely in for a costly repair.

Another option is to take a look at the pads themselves. If the outside pads are less than a quarter-inch thick, it’s time to get them replaced. Keeping your brakes working is one of the most important ways to avoid an accident down the road.

Oil

Oil helps your engine run smoothly. Without fresh oil or enough oil, your engine’s parts will create friction, which can cause a variety of problems. You should check your oil level once a month and get oil changes regularly. Today’s vehicles can go farther in between oil changes than in years past, but you should still consult your car’s manual for exact mileage specifications.

Tires

Tire rotation is an often-overlooked procedure, but it’s a simple one that can have lasting effects. Rotating your tires means taking the rear tires and bringing them to the front while moving your front tires to the back.

This subtle change helps your tires wear evenly. Even wear helps extend the life of your tires and can offer improved gas mileage. By rotating your tires every other time you change your oil, you can make sure your car handles as it should.

Schedule Maintenance in Madison, WI

If you’re looking for Hyundai service in Madison, Wisconsin, Zimbrick Hyundai West is a smart choice. We have a knowledgeable team that can handle a variety of repairs, and we even offer Hyundai service coupons.
