Car Care Academy

For more than 30 years, Firestone Complete Auto Care locations around the United States have been conducting free, hands-on Car Care Academies for drivers like you. These interactive workshops will educate you about the importance of vehicle maintenance, safety and how to save money at the gas pump. By attending one of our award-winning Car Care Academies, you will learn:

• How to check your vehicle's fluid levels, including washer fluid, brake fluid, engine oil, antifreeze, transmission fluid and power steering fluid.
• What steps you can take to make your vehicle more fuel efficient.
• What types of tires are on the market today and how to "read" the lettering on these tires.
• How to check your tire tread depth and why it's important.
• How to check your tire pressure with a gauge.
• What vehicle alignment is and why it is important.
• Why scheduled maintenance is necessary for all vehicles and what items you should check regularly.

At Firestone Complete Auto Care, we're here to help you with your car care needs. Check out our video tutorials for some helpful hints.
