Tire Services

Proper tire maintenance is crucial for both safety and performance. At Stivers Lincoln, our factory-trained technicians are experts in tire services. We supply a wide range of tires from top brands, including Goodyear, Michelin, Continental, and Bridgestone, so you get the best quality and value for your vehicle. There are several advantages to choosing Stivers Lincoln for your tire needs, including:

• Expert guidance: We understand your vehicle's specific requirements and can help you select the right tires for your driving preferences and conditions.
• Specialized equipment: We use advanced tools to ensure precise tire installation, balancing, and alignment.
• Comprehensive care: We provide a thorough inspection of your tires, including tread depth, wear patterns, and proper inflation.

Regular tire maintenance, including rotations and pressure checks, is essential for maximizing tire life span and maintaining optimal vehicle performance. It can help you avoid common tire pitfalls, such as hydroplaning due to low tread depth or getting a flat on your road trip. In addition to replacing and servicing your tires, we rotate them to ensure even wear. Rotations are as important as regular inspections because they allow you to get the most out of your tires.

Battery Maintenance

The battery is the heart of your vehicle's electrical system, so keeping it in top condition is crucial for reliable performance. We offer expert battery maintenance and replacement services to make sure your vehicle starts smoothly every time. Here's how you can determine if your battery needs attention:

• Slow cranking: If your engine seems sluggish or slow to start when turning the key, your battery may be nearing the end of its life.
• Warning lights: A lit check engine or battery light on your dashboard can indicate battery issues.
• Strange odors: A rotten egg smell often signifies a battery that's failing or leaking.
• Frequent jump-starts: If you're frequently having to jump-start a dead battery, it may mean you need a replacement.

To address these concerns, we offer a complimentary computerized battery test to evaluate your battery's health. This quick test allows us to tailor our maintenance recommendations to exactly what your car needs.

The advanced design of the Motorcraft batteries we install ensures power across various driving conditions. They come with a limited warranty for your peace of mind. Our technicians check that your battery performs optimally so you can have confidence in your vehicle and avoid breakdowns.

Brake Repairs

Maintaining the brake system is essential for your vehicle safety. When you bring your vehicle in for brake inspection or repairs with our auto service team, you can count on your brakes functioning as intended. Part of brake maintenance is knowing the signs that your brakes may need servicing. These include:

• Grinding, chirping, or squealing sounds: Persistent noises when braking can indicate worn brake pads or other issues.
• Vibration or shuddering: If you experience unusual vibrations or shuddering in the steering wheel during braking, it could be a sign of brake system problems.

Our brake repair services include:

• Comprehensive inspections: We check brake pads and shoes for wear, measure thickness, and inspect rotors for hot spots and run-outs.
• System checks: We examine brake lines, master cylinders, calipers, and anti-lock brake sensors for leaks and wear.
• Fluid analysis: We test and, if necessary, replace brake fluid.

Time for a Tune-Up? We've Got You Covered

Regular maintenance is key to extending the life of your vehicle and maintaining optimal performance. At Stivers Lincoln, we offer a range of tune-up services to keep your vehicle running smoothly. Routine maintenance tasks include:

• Oil changes: We recommend oil changes at the intervals specified in your owner's manual — typically 3,000 to 5,000 miles since your last oil change. Our comprehensive service includes synthetic motor oil replacement, oil filter changes, and a multipoint inspection.
• Fluid checks: We top off oil and other essential fluids, such as radiator, transmission, power steering, brake, and windshield washer, to prevent potential issues. Some systems may be inaccessible, such as a sealed transmission system, and we'll inform you if this is the case.
• Filter replacements: Regularly replacing air, cabin, and fuel filters ensures that your engine operates efficiently and your cabin air remains clean.
• Spark plug replacements: Replacing spark plugs at the recommended intervals helps maintain engine performance and fuel efficiency.
• Belt and hose inspections: We inspect belts and hoses for signs of wear and, if necessary, replace them to prevent engine overheating and loss of power steering.

We also offer mobile maintenance services, meaning we come to you to repair your vehicle. Some of the services our mobile team can provide include:
