Do I have to replace both headlights if only one is out?

Not necessarily, you can replace just the one that's out, though many drivers choose to do both at once. The reason is that headlight bulbs tend to wear at a similar rate, so if one has failed, the other is often not far behind, and matching brightness on both sides looks and performs better. Bring your vehicle to Hunts Point Service Station in The Bronx and we'll let you know whether replacing one or both makes the most sense for you.

Why won't my brake lights turn off?

Brake lights that stay on usually point to a stuck brake light switch near the brake pedal, though it can also be a wiring or sensor issue. It's worth fixing promptly, since brake lights that never shut off can drain your battery and confuse drivers behind you. Have it checked by the expert team at Hunts Point Service Station and we'll track down why they're staying on and get them working properly.

Can you adjust or aim my headlights if they're pointing wrong?

Yes, headlights that point too high, too low, or off to the side can be adjusted back to their proper aim. Correctly aimed headlights matter more than people realize, since misaimed lights reduce your visibility and can blind oncoming drivers. Our hours are Mon-Fri: 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM | Sat-Sun: Closed, so stop by Hunts Point Service Station and we'll get your headlights aimed where they should be.

How to Improve Your Car’s Gas Mileage?

June 7, 2023

How to Improve Your Car’s Gas Mileage? Here are some of the things you can do to ensure improved gas mileage for your car: Driving Habits Keep your car clean. Mud on the undercarriage can weigh a significant amount and slow you down. Consolidate your daily trips and errands. This will also save you the cost of restarting your engine, which uses a lot of gas. Avoid air conditioning when possible. However, when driving at higher speeds, having your windows open also creates drag. Don’t throttle the gas or brake pedal! Sudden starts or stops use more gas than gradual changes in speed. Don’t idle for too long. Turn off the engine if you anticipate a lengthy wait. Limit car warm-ups in winter. Clear out the trunk. More weight equals more drag. Avoid high speeds. We know this is almost impossible to resist but you can improve your gas mileage by up to 15 percent driving at 55 mph rather than 65 mph. Use overdrive. If your car is equipped with overdrive gearing use it as soon as your speed is high enough. Use cruise control. Maintaining a constant speed is ideal for improving your gas mileage. Servicing Your Vehicle Replace the spark plugs in your engine regularly. This way, the air and fuel mixture will burn cleaner and more efficiently. Improve the intake/output system. By allowing gas to get in and exhaust out of your vehicle you will improve the vehicle’s overall performance and gas mileage. Reduce friction. Use high-quality or synthetic motor oil. Check your oil! Low oil makes your engine work harder. Change your filters. Dirty filters can sometimes increase the amount of fuel your vehicle uses by as much as 10 percent. Keep tires properly inflated and aligned. Check regularly to ensure your wheels are fully inflated and your alignment is good. Get regular engine tune-ups and car maintenance checks. A lot can go wrong with a car. Damaged spark plugs or transmission problems can also contribute to poor gas mileage.
