The best preventive maintenance, other than taking care of your tires and changing your oil, is to keep the air intake system and fuel system clean. These systems are an important part of regulating air and fuel into your engine, allowing it to perform at it’s optimal level. The best way to keep these vital parts clean and functioning properly is by changing your air filter every 15k miles, cleaning your throttle body and intake every 15k-30k miles and changing your fuel filter every two years or 30k miles. This regular maintenance will essentially help the engine breathe easier.

Detroit -  Further demonstrating Buick’s ongoing commitment to quality, J.D. Power and Associates announced today that Buick tied for the highest ranking in vehicle dependability for three-year old models.  The Buick LaCrosse was also ranked first in the midsize car segment, beating the Toyota Camry, while the Buick Lucerne came in second in the large car segment.

For the seventh straight year, Buick has ranked in the top ten brands in the J.D. Power and Associates dependability study, which tracks vehicle issues over a three-year ownership period and this year evaluates more than 200 problem areas. Buick moved from sixth place to take over the top spot in this year’s study.

“Quality and craftsmanship have always been one of the defining characteristics of the Buick brand,” said Susan Docherty, GM North America vice president for Buick, Pontiac and GMC.  “The added value of that dependability, combined with premium materials and refined, responsive performance, is something our customers have come to expect from every Buick, and it’s the driving force behind the continuing transformation of the brand.”

In addition to the latest J.D. Power and Associates honor, Buicks have been recognized with numerous “recommended” and “best buy” designations by leading consumer magazines and websites for all three current models:  Enclave, Lucerne, and LaCrosse.  Building on that tradition, an all-new 2010 Buick LaCrosse luxury sedan will arrive in showrooms this summer.

Buick is a division of General Motors Corporation (NYSE: GM) and markets the Enclave, Lucerne and LaCrosse as part of an integrated Buick-Pontiac-GMC retail channel in North America, and is a cornerstone of GM’s expansion in China.  For the 2010 model year, Buick will be introducing an all-new LaCrosse luxury mid-size sedan.  More information on Buick and its products can be found on our website here.

The automotive industry is vital to the US economy.  The current financial crisis has impacted the automotive industry and crippled the ability to secure credit.  General Motors is asking the current administration and Congress for a loan, not a bail out.  As you watch the news and wonder if it is in your best interest to support the auto industry consider this.

One out of every 10 people in America is employed in a service that is related to the US auto industry.  If a plant closes, so does its suppliers, local stores and vendors.

Nearly 3 million jobs would be lost in the first year alone-with anther 2.5 million to follow over the next two years.

Personal income in the United States would drop by more than $150.7 billion over three years in lost taxes, unemployment and health care assistance.

Domestic automotive production would more than likely fall to zero-even by international producers, due to supplier bankruptcies.

There are some 14,000 US brand dealers in cities and towns across the country, employing approximately 740,000 people, with a total payroll of some $35 billion.

Please take a moment to be involved and let your representatives know you are concerned by calling 1-866-927-2233.  For more information and to state your support click on www.gmfactsandfiction.com.

Carl Black Automotive Group appreciates your time, concern and business.
