Commonly Reported Problems
Every auto line likely has anomalies that owners are sure to discover at some point. While we'll need to take a look at your automobile to make an accurate diagnosis of any problems you're experiencing, we can share some of the more common concerns about European brands. Please note that, in general, European cars are known for luxury, style, modern technology, and longevity, so most run trouble free for a long time. One issue, however, that seems to span across many European makes is an aggravating oil leak. Lubricant can seep out around the oil filter housing, valve cover gasket, or rear main seal. Another complaint centers around electrical problems. A lot of European automobiles have high-end entertainment, navigation, comfort, and safety features that require electrical power. As great as these are, they create additional opportunities for something to go wrong. Overheating is another thorn in the side of some European performance enthusiasts. Engines are often designed to produce high horsepower using plastic parts and complex designs. Sometimes, the cooling system simply can't keep up. Some brands also appear to be prone to transmission failures. Finally, watch for suspension problems. Many high-end vehicles are equipped with air suspension systems. These provide great ride quality, but the airbags that replace traditional shocks/struts can crack with age or become punctured from road debris. Constantly escaping air can overtax the compressor, shortening its usable life.
The Role of Preventive Maintenance
Obtaining regular preventive maintenance for your vehicle can eliminate or delay several major repairs. It's important to know that some brand-specific protocols are required to keep the manufacturer's original warranty intact. Additionally, some of these checklists can become quite costly, particularly if you're returning to the dealership. Provision Automotive can help you create a suitable balance. We'll help you get the services you need at a fraction of the cost you'd expect to pay at a dealer's service department.
