Maintenance Tips for High-Mileage Cars in Shrewsbury, NJ

Maintenance Tips for High Mileage Cars in Shrewsbury, NJ

Does your car have over 80,000 miles on its odometer? If so, bring it to Schwartz Mazda for maintenance. Our Service Department has provided this overview to give you an idea of how to take care of your high-mileage vehicle.

Oil

If you've been on Sycamore Avenue for a while, then you know how vital oil is for a car's engine. It is responsible for keeping your powertrain cool and well lubricated as you head to work and back. While most newer cars can last 5,000 to 7,500 miles without getting new oil, high-mileage models may need a fresh batch sooner rather than later. Swapping out this fluid every 3,000 to 4,000 miles can have many benefits for your Mazda CX-30 or Mazda3 Sedan. Not only can it boost your vehicle's fuel economy and overall performance, but you may find that the vehicle lasts longer when fresh oil is more frequently added. However, it is always best to stick with the recommended estimates provided in your Owner’s Manual. Ask us about special oil options for high-mileage cars.

Transmission and Brakes

Another essential part of every car, truck, and SUV is its transmission. This system is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels with a series of gears. It also has a specialized fluid that should be swapped every 30,000 miles or so at our nearby location. If it has been a while since you've gotten a transmission fluid replacement, visit us during open hours to have us check your car! At a similar interval, have us inspect the brake fluid in your vehicle. This substance pressurizes and cleans the brake lines, allowing you to easily come to a stop without having to slam on the pedal. Frequently check underneath your car for brightly colored fluid, as this could indicate a leak.

Exterior

As a car ages, its exterior becomes more susceptible to wear and tear from the elements. This is especially true in places like Shrewsbury where we experience a full range of seasons. Snow, ice, hail, and sunlight can all damage a vehicle's paint and frame. Be sure to examine the outside of your car for chipped and scratched paint often. If left unattended, rust spots can form if there is no protective coating. Luckily, washing and waxing the body of your car can not only remove grime accrued from trips to Parkers Creek, but it can also help it look like new! Visit our Parts Department if you need touch up paint for your specific make and model.

I recently bought a car from this dealership and had a great experience. Joseph Guzzo was my salesperson, and he was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He was friendly, professional, and took the time to answer all of my questions without any pressure. Joseph made the car-buying experience smooth and stress-free. Great and nice guy to work with! I highly recommend asking for Joseph if you're looking for a new vehicle.

Purchased a CX-5 for my daughter, and I got to say it was one of the best experiences I ever had. For starters, Noah was awsome - very polite, enthusiastic, funny, and very knowledgeable - superb disposition! And then Steve (finance) too was awsome, another easy to talk with, very knowledgeable and helpful guy. Again, can't say enough of my experience ... you all were wonderful!

I recently had my windshield replaced on my 21 MX-5 RF Club here and judging by the way my emissions sticker and ez-pass were put back on perfectly, + the cleanliness of the work, as if no work has been performed at all aside from getting the new windshield itself. I can tell that the installer treated my vehicle right. To add to this their pricing was fair, the service was quick, and communication was prompt. Bravo! Straight A’s. I will be returning for future service. Thanks for putting me back on the road! Keep up the good work.

Just brought a 2026 Cx-50 with the help of Jesse! It was truly such a smooth process, and Jesse was an amazing help in picking my dream car, and though out this process! If you are gonna buy a car from here please ask for Jesse! He answered all the question me and my family had, and explained the difference of each Mazda.

We had a really positive experience working with Joe Guzzo at Schwartz Mazda when purchasing a Mazda CX-5 for my son. Joe was friendly, patient, and very easy to work with throughout the whole process. What stood out most was how much he cared about making sure the car was absolutely right for us. I’m a very detail-oriented buyer, and Joe never made me feel rushed or difficult. There was a tiny chip in the windshield and a couple small cosmetic things I noticed, and he made sure everything was taken care of. Our new car looked absolutely perfect when we gave it to my son and he was thrilled. You can tell that Joe genuinely wants his customers to leave happy. We really appreciated the extra effort and would definitely recommend him to anyone shopping for a Mazda.

First thing I'd like to mention is that everyone I encountered while at this dealership was very approachable and had a great attitude. Everyone was smiling and happy to help. Noah was the salesman who had helped me when I walked in. He was friendly, polite and very helpful. He showed me the ins and outs of the car I had gone in to buy (mazda cx-30). He also helped me with my car insurance company after all the paperwork was finished. Overall he was just really great and I had a great experience. 100% recommend this dealer and Noah to help you with all your car needs! Thanks guys!

My wife got a new Mazda from Schwartz this week due to a deer striking her car and causing total lost. She was thrilled with the entire process that occurred on such short notice from Neil contacting her online to Elvin who work out the deal and Pete who handled the financing, everyone was a delight! Elvin was very helpful in setting up her app and helped her program the car. She would highly recommend Schwartz Mazda to everyone who needs a car! Zoom zoom

Probably the best experience I’ve had in a very long time at a car dealership!! Let me just start by saying, I only went in to see one model. I was not expecting to trade my car in that day, but I did!! And if you’re thinking, it’s like a typical dealership where you feel a little bit pressured, I am happy to say I was not. 🙂 The sales consultant that worked with me is Elvin P. He’s very professional, and very helpful. My experience was very straightforward to the point no back-and-forth. I’m very very happy with the price I am paying to lease my Mazda CX5. I walked in thinking I wanted a white car because that’s mostly all I’ve ever had, but I walked out with a black car and it’s gorgeous I want to say thank you to everyone who helped me from the sales manager to the financing manager, all very professional and very nice..and as soon as I walked in, I believe I was greeted by Neil Schwartz. Thank you for the hospitality. Thank you so much. I’m pretty sure I’ll be staying with Mazda.
