For nearly 40 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 keep your car running newer, longer.

What steps to 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 tire tread depth and why it's important.
How to check tire pressure with a gauge.
What vehicle alignment is and why it is important.
