Preventative Maintenance in Burnaby

Keep Your Vehicle Reliable, Safe, and Cost-Effective Year-Round

Preventative maintenance is the simplest way to avoid unexpected breakdowns, reduce repair costs, and keep your vehicle driving the way it should. At Crompton Brothers Automotive, we provide professional preventative maintenance in Burnaby for drivers and local businesses who want reliability, safety, and long-term value from every vehicle.

Serving Burnaby since 1980, we take a practical, transparent approach: we inspect key systems, follow manufacturer recommendations, and help you stay ahead of wear and tear—without upsells or surprises.

What Is Preventative Maintenance?

Preventative maintenance is scheduled service that helps prevent problems before they become major repairs. It includes routine inspections and service items that keep your vehicle running efficiently and safely.

Instead of waiting for a warning light or breakdown, preventative maintenance focuses on:

  • Catching issues early
  • Protecting major components (engine, transmission, cooling system, brakes)
  • Improving fuel efficiency and performance
  • Reducing downtime and unexpected costs

Benefits of Preventative Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps you:

  • Reduce the risk of breakdowns
  • Extend vehicle lifespan
  • Improve fuel economy and performance
  • Maintain safe braking and handling
  • Prevent premature tire wear
  • Protect resale value
  • Avoid costly repairs caused by neglect

For fleet and commercial vehicles, preventative maintenance is also one of the best ways to:

  • Reduce downtime
  • Control operating costs
  • Keep vehicles consistent and road-ready

Signs You’re Overdue for Maintenance

Even if your vehicle “seems fine,” these common signs can indicate it’s time to book service:

  • Dashboard warning lights (check engine, maintenance reminder, oil light)
  • Reduced fuel economy
  • Rough idle, hesitation, or sluggish performance
  • Unusual noises (squealing, grinding, clunking)
  • Vibrations while driving or braking
  • Fluid leaks or burning smells
  • Overheating or temperature fluctuations
  • Tires wearing unevenly
  • A/C or heating performance changes

If you’re unsure, a preventative inspection can provide clarity and help you plan repairs before they become urgent.

Maintenance Schedules That Fit Burnaby Driving Conditions

Burnaby driving can be tough on vehicles—stop-and-go traffic, hills, seasonal rain, and temperature shifts all contribute to wear on brakes, tires, suspension, and cooling systems.

If you’re not sure what schedule your vehicle needs, we’ll help you build a plan you can actually follow.
