A little Mazda service can make a big difference when protecting your vehicle. That’s especially true during the winter and summer when driving and environmental conditions can be more extreme. Scott Mazda has a closer look at the service tasks you’ll want to schedule for your Mazda vehicle this summer. more Get Your A/C Inspected and Serviced You want to keep your cabin cool during the summer. Car A/C inspection and maintenance will ensure good cabin airflow and temperature. If the system needs a cleaning, a cabin filter, or additional refrigerant, we’ll take care of it. Change the Oil The oil in your vehicle helps to keep the engine cool, but it can’t do its job well when it’s full of dirt and debris. Changing the oil out for safer, more efficient driving come summer can be helpful. Keep the Engine Cool Like the oil filter, the air filter helps to protect your vehicle’s engine. However, less air flows through when it clogs, and your vehicle is more likely to overheat, so you may want to change it for summer. This is also an ideal time to top off your car’s coolant. Battery Inspection Car batteries can lose some of their capacity when the temperature goes to extremes. If necessary, it’s better to bring your vehicle in for battery inspections and replacements than to learn your battery is no longer working during a summer road trip. Tire Service When the temperature fluctuates between hot and cold, it can affect your tires’ pressure. Too much fluctuation can make your tires prone to damage in the summer, so getting them inspected at the start of the season is a good idea. Schedule Essential Summer Maintenance at Scott MAZDA At Scott Mazda, we’ll take care of the details, so you can focus on planning the next great adventure. Visit our dealership for summer service support you can count on.

The Mazda service team at Scott Mazda is here for all your driving and ownership needs. We’re even sharing what you’ll want to do if your vehicle is recalled so that you can be prepared. Here are a few simple steps you can take to ensure your vehicle gets back out on the road as quickly and safely as possible. more Stay Calm A recall notice might seem scary, especially if you drive your family or loved ones around, but don’t worry. Recalls happen for several reasons, including faulty bulbs or required trim replacements. Most of the time, recalls are relatively quick and simple fixes that won’t affect the safety or reliability of your vehicle. You always want to take a recall seriously, but staying calm during the repair or replacement process is helpful. Verify the Information If a recall occurs, you’ll be notified in several ways. To start, you’ll be notified over the phone and through the mail. More than one recall notice will be directed to all vehicle owners, so you don’t have to worry about missing it. We provide a Mazda recall information center on our website if you want to check on any open recall notices for your current vehicle. Schedule Recall Service and Repairs Once you’ve verified that the recall notice is legitimate, you’ll want to schedule service or replacements.

The Mazda service team at Scott Mazda is dedicated to meeting your needs, whether you’re warming your car for the winter or cooling it down for the summer. We provide a wide range of services, access to high-quality parts, and the information you need to keep your vehicle safe. Here’s a closer look at the service you’ll want to schedule for your Mazda air conditioning unit. more Filling Up the Coolant The coolant in your vehicle helps to keep the engine from overheating during the summer. It can affect the temperature, humidity, and functionality of the car’s air conditioning unit since a hot engine can lead to a hot car, so it’s essential to make sure your coolant is appropriately filled up. Checking for Leaks and Cracks A series of hoses and belts keep our vehicles safe, comfortable, and running right. Because those hoses and belts are made of materials prone to cracking or damage in extreme temperatures, it’s important to get them inspected before the summer months. This will help ensure you don’t end up with a coolant or refrigerant leak on those hot summer days. Replacing the Cooling Fan The air conditioning unit in your Mazda vehicle is complex and part of a larger system. If your vehicle’s air conditioning isn’t doing the job right, it might be due to the cooling fan. Cooling fans can be prone to significant damage, like the chipping of a blade or motor blowout, which can affect the function of your AC when you need it most.

When it comes to the Mazda finance process, you aren’t alone. Our team here at Scott Mazda will work with you every step of the way to ensure you’re taking home the car you love at a price you’ll love. We offer financing tools you can check out right from the comfort of your home, and we’re answering your most pressing financing questions here at our dealership, including some of the following. more What Are My Financing Options? Buying and leasing are two primary financing options to pick from when the time comes for your next car. When you buy a vehicle, you’ll have more freedom to drive and customize it as you want, and you won’t have to worry about your credit score. When you lease a vehicle, you’ll have access to new models, often for a lower monthly payment than a loan. Why Should I Trade In My Vehicle? There are many benefits to trading in a car, but the most significant advantage is savings. The trade-in’s value is deducted from the down payment of the next model, which means your down payment will be much lower if there is one at all. The sales tax is calculated after the trade-in value has been deducted, which means you’ll also save on sales tax. How Much Should I Put Down on My Next Car? The more you put toward your down payment, the less you’ll spend on your Mazda vehicle over time. That said, you want to make sure you can cover the monthly costs. A good rule of thumb is the 20/4/10 rule. Put down 20% of the car’s total, follow a four-year term, and limit transportation costs to 10% of your monthly income.

Mazda cars are legendary for their performance and the fun their owners invariably have behind the wheel. That raises a question, however: is their secret their torque or their horsepower? Your Mazda dealer knows the answer, which might not be what you expect. more Horsepower Explained Horsepower is one of the first specs we see when we’re introduced to a new car—and for a good reason. It gets its name from the working ability of a horse, and though the measurement is a little outdated, the meaning behind it is not. Essentially, horsepower is the way power is measured in a specific unit. It is a quantifiable way to refer to engines’ and motors’ capacities. One single horsepower unit is equivalent to about 550 foot-pounds per second. Torque Explained The other common term for measuring a car’s power is torque. While it might seem like torque and horsepower are very similar on the surface, since they both account for the vehicle’s power, they represent different things. Torque measures rotational force, specifically, the quantifiable amount of energy applied to rotating something (like your tires) on its axis. Which Matters More? The answer is “Both.” While horsepower is essential to speed, torque transmits engine output to the road surface. Ideally, you want a proper balance of both, which you’ll find in a car like the MAZDA MX-5 Miata. Learn About MAZDA Power Today These are just a few of the essential terms you’ll want to learn about when it comes to the new vehicle purchasing process, and Scott Mazda is here to help.

Mazda cars have always been at the forefront of innovation and technology, whether you’re searching for that little extra performance off the line or the safety features that will protect your family on the next drive. Today, Mazda is taking that forward-thinking approach to the next level, looking at tomorrow's fuel and energy options. Learn more about the different fuels in the brand’s future at Scott Mazda. more What’s Happening Right Now? Mazda has recently announced its decision to join the Research Association of Biomass Innovation for Next Generation Automobile Fuels (Research Association) as a full member. They are the seventh member to join the Research Association, and this decision shows a commitment to the future of green engineering and low-impact technology. What Does the Research Association Do? So what can we expect from Mazda’s involvement with the Research Association? The organization is currently looking toward biofuels as an alternative to the gasoline that internal combustion engine vehicles use today. Another focus is on the efficient production of bioethanol fuel, an eco-friendly fuel option that reduces emissions and mitigates the need for minerals like the kind used in batteries. The Research Association and Mazda are working toward the shared goal of worldwide carbon neutrality. This goal aligns with an eco-friendly brand strategy that will see more hybrids and EVs coming to market in .

We also take service and car care a step further with the best tips and recommendations for protecting your vehicle all year long. Here are some service tasks you’ll want to schedule for your car this spring. more Oil Change Service There are many benefits to getting a routine oil change, but oil changes are vital come spring. That’s because the oil in your vehicle captures dirt that gets kicked up from the road before it can enter the engine compartment. In the winter, that can also include salt and grime from inclement weather. Schedule an oil change for spring to start the season off fresh. Battery Inspection Service Did you know that your vehicle loses up to 50% of its battery capacity in temperatures below freezing? Car batteries typically have a lifespan of three to five years, but extreme weather conditions, like cold temperatures, can cause significant loss of capacity. It’s a good idea to inspect your battery this spring, so you know if it needs replacing. Tire Change Service and Care If you swapped your tires out for the winter, now is the time to change them back to all-season tires. In addition to helping with that, our team will provide the Mazda tire service, like inspections, rotations, and fill-ups, which will mean the best spring driving for your Mazda vehicle.
