Road Trip Checklist

Can I Take a High Mileage Car on a Road Trip?

If you've been diligent with routine car maintenance and your vehicle is in good mechanical condition, then you should have no problem taking your high-mileage car on a road trip. As long as your vehicle runs well, is up to date on its Chevy service intervals and has had its New York state vehicle inspection, the mileage shouldn't impact your car's readiness for a road trip. Visit our nearby GMC dealer if you have any other questions about your high-mileage car and schedule Chevy service in Brooklyn.

How Do I Prepare a Car for a Road Trip?

Regardless of whether you drive a Chevy SUV, rugged GMC truck or luxury Buick, there are numerous factors to consider when preparing your car for a road trip. You can check routine GMC maintenance items on your own or simply visit our Brooklyn auto service center for Equinox repairs or Acadia brake service.
