Your new Chevy warranty will eventually expire, but this doesn't mean you have to lose the benefits or Chevy protection. Three extended warranties, also known as protection plans, are available, and they extend your protection into the future. As your Chevy dealership, we want to tell you some of the warranty benefits of choosing an extended warranty. more Three Options There are three levels of protection plans to choose from, depending on your needs and requirements. All three offer the choice of a $0 or $100 deductible and a choice of protection length. Let's look at them in more detail below. Powertrain Plan This plan covers the most complex and expensive parts of Your Chevy. It covers all components in the engine, transmission, and drive axles. If you have a hybrid or EV vehicle, this plan also covers their unique components. Silver Plan This plan includes everything in the plan above and extends coverage to components in the front and rear suspension, electrical system, steering, brakes, and climate control. Platinum Plan As the highest level plan, everything in the above plans is covered, together with coverage of components in the navigation, audio, and high-tech systems.

Roadside Assistance When you choose a protection plan, you automatically receive roadside assistance for the length of the plan. This protection is available 24/7/365 and provides invaluable help when you need it the most. Once you contact the control center with your location and details, professional technicians will be dispatched to assist you. Some services available include jump-starting, lock-out assistance, and tire replacement (you must have a spare tire available for them to mount).

Your Chevy is designed for fuel efficiency, but time and worn components can decrease this and cost you more at the pump. As your Chevy dealer, we want to give you a few tips on how to increase your Chevy fuel efficiency. more Air Filter Replacement Combustion requires fuel and air that mix in a precise ratio of 14:1 air-to-fuel. Air is drawn through the radiator grille and passes into the air filter. This filter traps dirt and dust, so only clean air enters the engine. In time, this filter will become blocked by dirt. Without enough air, your engine becomes fuel-rich, and fuel efficiency will drop. A fuel-rich engine can't burn fuel efficiently, and much of it is wasted. On average, a blocked filter causes a huge 10% increase in fuel usage. Once we replace this filter, fuel economy will immediately return to normal. Plan Refueling Carefully Choosing the right time to gas up can save you money. If you head for the pump early in the morning or later in the evening, you effectively get more fuel for your cash. This is because fuel is dispensed by volume, and lower temperatures increase fuel density, so you get more bang for your buck. Check Wheel Alignment Wheel alignment is the angle of your wheels relative to your Chevy's centerline. The correct wheel alignment for your Chevy is determined during the designed phase to ensure correct weight distribution and enhance drivability. As time passes, wheel alignment will alter, and this decreases fuel economy. Incorrect alignment increases drag, forcing your engine to work harder to move your Chevy. This increases fuel usage by up to 10%. We correct this problem by connecting your wheels to our computerized wheel alignment system. This machine adjusts each wheel to its correct angle. Replace Worn Spark Plugs Worn spark plugs may still work, but the older the plug, the less efficient it is. A spark plug screws into each engine cylinder and ignites the compressed fuel-air mixture at the height of compression. This ensures the mixture burns perfectly, creating a timed series of mini explosions that move your vehicle. Old, worn plugs can fail to spark, causing a misfire or stalling your engine. Misfiring can damage the cylinders and pistons and increase fuel usage since most of the fuel doesn't burn. We'll check your plugs and replace any that are worn or damaged. Check Tire Pressure Underinflated tires suffer increased wear and tear as the softer side rubber is exposed to surface friction. They also decrease fuel efficiency, as they create resistance when driving. Your engine has to work harder to overcome this resistance, increasing fuel costs. If you'd like more fuel-saving tips or to book a service, contact us today at Trapp Chevrolet in Houma, LA.
