Winter is here with us again, and yes we have to brace ourselves and get ready for its impacts. Winter comes with both positive and negative impacts on almost the entire ecosystem and every other sector. From humans, animals, and any other assets we own could be a victim to the ravaging effects of winter. Cars are one of the main assets which get affected a lot by winter. From the freezing temperatures to regular falling snow and ice. All this has a very huge impact on your car’s form and shape. Frozen windows and engine freeze-up are amongst the common signs of bad form for your car during winter. 

Your car needs maximum care and protection all through the winter season to protect it from complete installment. This is why A-Protect Warranty Corporation is here for you. We offer an extended warranty which is something your car cannot do without. Our extended warranties will cater to unexpected expenses associated with damage and breakdown. As we all know, there is no human machine that is not prone to error or damage. Nothing is immune to damage. What if your car breaks down and you are not financially ready to meet the expenses.

Either way, winter is one hell of a time where your car’s life matters. Here are 5 things you need to do for your car to keep it in good form and shape.

Changes to winter tires.

The fierce cold of winter poses a threat to normal summer tires. This is because summer tires are only meant to be used during summertime. During winter, the road gets icy and filled with snow. This makes a car having normal summer tires hard to maneuver through that kind of condition. Icy roads are slippery. The slippery nature of these roads makes it hard to control and handle the car in the right manner. Sometimes even breaking becomes a problem. Traction is the key solution to these problems. Winter tires are engineered with a modified rubber that can withstand harsh cold temperatures. These tires are very vital in ensuring road safety during winter. Failure to fix winter tires is the same to catch a snake by its tail. Accidents are very common with car owners who ignore using winter tires. Do not be a victim.

Check on the engine coolant.

Engine coolant is an important liquid in your car’s engine. It is responsible for the protection of your engine from freezing. It is also helpful in protecting your car from rust and other corrosive substance. Over time, the coolants depreciate in terms of quality. This weakens its ability to protect your engine from freezing and other damages. Use a tester that will determine whether the coolant is still effective or dormant. It is wise to do this frequently to avoid complete damages to the internal parts of the engine. The expenses that come along with a damaged engine are too high to handle. No matter how hard the matter is, A-Protect Warranty Corporation is here to save you from such huge and unexpected costs.

Make sure your battery is well maintained.

You don’t want to get stranded in the middle of nowhere due to a stall battery. A car’s battery needs to check up all the time to make sure it is fully operational. Its life is very limited thus need for extra care and maintenance. The battery’s terminal needs to be protected from rust to enhance the proper flow of current. The terminals need to be spared with a coating liquid that will inhibit the entry of rust agents. They also need to be cleaned regularly to avoid any rust formation. If you park your car for long during winter without igniting is a direct ticket to a dead battery. Make sure you at least run the car engine for some time so that the battery can be charged and not just lay dormant. A well-maintained battery will increase its health and life by a great milestone. At the end of the day, batteries have a limited life.

Change to winter windshield wipers.

Winter wipers are special wipers that are meant to withstand the harsh icy and snow conditions during winter. Visibility is one aspect that gets affected a lot during winter. You need a wiper that is meant to wipe off the thick snow that falls onto the windshield and can hinder your visibility. Visibility will make you avoid collisions and other accidents making your car be in good shape.

Wash your car during winter.

There is no doubt that many people usually ignore washing their cars during winter. Well, before winter begins consider giving your ride a thorough wash and wax. This will protect your car from rust agents. This method can only be effective through continuous washing and not only a one-time process. 

Conclusion.

Winter is a threat to the life of your car if you don’t put into consideration the above tips. You need to give your car protection and care. An extended warranty should also be on your checklist before winter comes so that you can safeguard your car against damages. We offer a wide variety of extended warranty plans ranging from basic one to complex. You get what you meet financially. Our prices are very friendly together with our team that is very accommodative. What are you waiting for! Give us a call at +1-866-660-6444 for a free quote.

From good elements in the air to toxic pollutants emitted from the earth. Some of these elements include; lead and sulfur. After the rain is over, it evaporates off the surface of the car. However, dirt and other elements carried by the rain remain on the car’s body. They form watermarks. At first, you will notice that the shining factor of the car starts diminishing as time goes by. Frequent downpour causes more watermarks formations. They develop into hard stains which are difficult to remove.

Rainwater is a threat to the engine.

 

The engine is one of the vital parts which needs to be operational or else your car will stall. The engine is water-phobic. It has internal mechanical components which are always moving and grinding against each other. When water enters the engine, it mixes with oil and creates a dense thick emulsion. When this emulsion finds its way to most parts of the engine, it leaves behind a trail of damage to these parts. The most affected parts are the pistons and crankshaft. Therefore, when it rains, make sure you get under the bonnet to check up for signs of a water inhabited engine. The common sign is the change in oil color where it turns less opaque. The engine will also start to overheat due to loss of the coolant level. Failure to check up on your engine often will lead to a complete stall engine. Repairing the engine or rather purchasing a new one is something you should never want to experience. This is why; we as A-Protect Warranty Corporation are here for you.

Japan is home to the two best and leading cars makers; Mazda and Honda. The two have been over the years considered best in American markets. There has been stiff competition and rivalry between these two companies to judge out which one is the most preferred. The two brands have been in existence for a very long time now. Both cars have their features compared to the other thus creating a difference in them despite having a more of a similar look. This article will dig deep through to determine the difference between these cars.

Some factors will play as determinants in the battle between Honda and Mazda. Among them are; performance, safety, handling, Fuel economy, price, and many more.

 

Safety.

 

 Safety is the number one priority that needs to be considered in a car. A safe car is a sure guarantee to the lives of the driver and the passengers. Safety is the number one determinant for the factor which everyone looks at before making a purchase. Both Mazda and Honda have taken safety as a deep concern to the extent of incorporating some amazing features in their models. Mazda however has put in a lot of effort and focus on the safety part beating its counterpart. Mazda’s I ACTIVSENSE is a safety feature that has been placed in its latest models. The features do amazing work from; Lane-keeping assistance, Lane departure warning, Smart breaking, Front lighting, rear traffic alert, and blind-spot monitoring. Honda on its side has fewer safety features compared to Mazda. Adaptive cruise control is what Honda’s ‘’Honda sensing’’ feature has.

 

2.Performance.

 

When it comes to performance, both the Honda and Mazda perform incredibly well. There is a slight difference between the two with Honda doing fairly well more than Mazda. The latest Honda model which is the 2020 Honda CR-V comes, with a 1.4 liter 4 cylinder gasoline engine that is turbocharged. Then the engine looks small but produces an incredible amount of power of up to 190 horsepower. WE also have the hybrid version of the Honda CR-V which comes with a 212 horsepower engine. The braking system on the Honda CR-V IS quite something having four strong disks on all the wheels. On the other side, Mazda 2020 series CX-5 comes with a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder engine. The engine is big but does not produce enough horsepower as the Honda. It produces up to 187 only. In short, Honda is generally a good performer when it comes to powertrain compared to Mazda.

 

  1. Drivability.

 

These two cars have almost similar features. They are both five-seater cars with arguably enough space inside the cabin. Honda has a slightly bigger cargo room than Mazda. Honda’s interior is nice and appealing. The finish and touches make the interior look classy. The nice faux wood finish and the chromed trim give the interior an executive feel. The infotainment system features more than 5 inches LED Screen depending on the car’s version together with other accessories. Mazda has impressive features too with the first keyless entry system and push-button to start the car. The interior is polished with fine material such as the fine carbon fiber trims to bring out that sporty feel. The interior is noise-free from the engine’s noise fixed with appealing infotainment features. Both cars have an inbuilt apple car play and android auto. Honda carries the day with its cool trims anyway. 

 

Conclusion.

 

Choosing between Mazda and Honda in 2021 will depend mostly on what you as the driver are looking for in a car. If you want enough cargo and cabin space then go for Honda. Safety and excellent handling then Mazda is the way to go. However, Honda has a good reputation for its quality and good performance. Both cars are good anyway, it will only depend on what you want in a car. Before hitting the road after making your purchase, never forget to get an extended warranty. Yes, the two cars come with the factory’s warranty. Do not ignore the fact that the factory’s warranty is not a lifetime warranty. It will expire after a given period. Make sure you get an extended warranty for your car so that when the factory’s warranty expires, you won’t suffer from frequent and unexpected expenses. A-Protect Warranty Corporation should be your number one choice. We offer amazing deals from powertrain warranties to bumper-to-bumper warranties.

Remember, this method will need reapplication after a given period. The only limitation is that after spraying, the liquid will drip from your car for about two to three days as it dries off. It is advisable to park your car at a convenient space and wait until the car is completely dry.

It is one of the oldest forms of rustproofing which involves the use of a tar-based spray. It is applied to parts that are beneath the car. These p[arts include; wheel wells, flow pans, and other metallic parts that get exposed to rust. These parts get sprayed with tar-based spray that forms a layer over the parts. Acts like a shield against moisture and air. Yet, after a given time, the spray hardens and begins to crack exposing the parts to rust.

3.Use of the electric module.

TOP 5 THINGS YOU CAN DO TO KEEP YOUR CAR AIR CONDITIONING AT ITS BEST.

Désolé, cet article est seulement disponible en anglais américain. Pour le confort de l’utilisateur, le contenu est affiché ci-dessous dans une autre langue. Vous pouvez cliquer le lien pour changer de langue active.

The car’s air conditioning is one of the greatest inventions pioneered by the earlier automobile makers. Well, the concept behind air conditional can be traced back in history. Egyptians are amongst the former inventors of air conditioning systems which they applied in their houses due to the hot desert temperatures. However, car air conditioning was brought about by Chrysler Imperial models which were the first cars to introduce air conditioning systems. It was until the 80s when there mass a full-scale production of cars with air conditioning. Currently, almost all the newest models are usually equipped with automated air condition.

The air condition and many other car accessories are always prone to damage and breakdown. The air condition itself demands extra care and protection to increase its life and health. Failure to do so will automatically lead to failure. Get your air conditioner repaired and checked will cost you between $150 to $250. That might seem less to some individuals but that won’t be the case to some. We always want to spend less and less frequent on our cars when it comes to damages. No matter how careful we are, our cars will always fall victim to breakdown. This is why you need an extended warranty. An extended warranty works by taking over repair expenses that you as the car owner are supposed to pay. In short, all expenses resulting from damage to the warranted parts are under the warranty provider.

 

Working Principle of an air conditioning system.

 

Almost 90% of car owners do not know how car air conditioning works. It is sad when one visits a service center to get a minor problem which can be easily fixed by oneself, done by the servicemen. It is wise to at least know the basics of how an air conditioning system works.

Well, a conditioning system works by using the property of manipulating the refrigerant. Changing it from a gaseous to a liquid state and vice versa. The process begins in the compressor which is mounted on the car’s engine. It is driven by a belt and takes in low-pressure gas and converts it into high-pressure gas. The gas then flows to the condenser which is responsible for reducing the refrigerant temperature while maintaining its pressure. The refrigerant flows to the dryer which removes moisture and other harmful elements from the refrigerant. From the dryer, the refrigerant gets into the evaporator which is located hind the dashboard. It changes the evaporator back to a gaseous state causing a cooling effect.

 

How to keep your air conditioning system at its best.

Annual service.

 

It is advisable to at least get your air conditioning system checked once every year. The process will involve checking for any leaks of the refrigerant, damage to any parts of the system, and detection of any other problem. The right time to do so is usually the period before summer begins. Summer comes with scorching hot temperatures which at a time makes driving uncomfortable. You need to make sure you have a working AC before summer begins. Under the bumper-to-bumper warranty, you can get your AC warranted against damages. A-Protect Warranty Corporation offers the best deals in the market. Come get your air conditioning system secured.

 

Run the defrost mode daily for around 5-10 minutes.

 

Every morning or any other time before you hit the road, make it a habit of running the AC defrost mode for around 5+ minutes. This will help clear out moisture from the air conditioning system which could lead to the build-up of molds and mildew. A dump system will cause make your cabin to have a bad odor which won’t be tolerable.

 

Run the AC weekly.

 

It is amongst the ways of increasing the health of your car’s air conditioning system. You are required to run the AC for around 15 minutes once every week. The purpose of doing so is to keep the refrigerant gas at its optimum pressure. It will also aid in keeping the compressor in a good form and shape thus preventing any damage that may arise.

 

Recharge.

 

Many car owners do not care when it comes to recharging the AC. If you are looking to keep your air conditioning system work for long, consider recharging. The refrigerant, which is the liquid that runs through the system, needs to be topped up after every two to three years. You 

need to check the liquid level to confirm that it’s at the right level.

 

Clean your car.

 

You need to be passionate about your car when it comes to cleanliness. This is the only option that is closely attached to the good health and shape of a car. The AC acts like a vacuum cleaner. It picks up every debris it finds in the air and sucks it into the system. You need to thoroughly clean your car to clear off any dirt particles. These particles are very harmful to your AC system whereby they fill up and clog the system. Take your time to clean and unclog the AC too.

 

Conclusion.

 

Air conditioning brings about a luxurious and comfortable feel inside the cabin. All modern cars usually get off the factory’s doors fitted with a working AC. However, due to the kind of work air conditioning does, they fall victim to damage and breakdown. The above tips will keep your air conditioning system in its best state. A-Protect Warranty Corporation through its bumper to bumper warranty will include the air conditioning system to ensure that it if in good shape and form.

HOW INSURANCE PRICES ARE LIKELY TO CHANGE IN 2021 AND HOW YOU GET BETTER DEALS.

Désolé, cet article est seulement disponible en anglais américain. Pour le confort de l’utilisateur, le contenu est affiché ci-dessous dans une autre langue. Vous pouvez cliquer le lien pour changer de langue active.

Insurance can be traced back to its earliest form during 1400BC. Over the years, the tradition grew from loans given to merchants whom when their ships capsized could use the money to get new goods. In the current world, insurance is applied for entirely everything. The common forms of insurance are; Auto insurance, Health Insurance, and Property insurance. Ever since the pandemic came in last year, there has been a steady increase in insurance rates. The pandemic ravaged every sector in the world leaving behind a huge blow to the global economy. 2021 is here with us and the pandemic is still in place though its impacts have been under control due to the mass worldwide vaccination.

 

Auto insurance.

 

Auto insurance is one of the common forms of insurance which is taken to cover any auto-machine against disasters such as fires and accidents. 2021 being a pre-pandemic season, auto insurance prices are likely to go up. According to the latest findings done by CPI, April, and June, the auto insurance prices had gone up by 6.4% and 16.4%. Now that the economy is reopening, there are tons of activities going on to make sure it is fully revived. Below are some of the causes for increased auto insurance prices;

 

Return of driving.

 

Due to the low number of cases being reported and the introduction of vaccines, cars are now back on the roads. During last year, cars were not on the roads at all. This was due to the strict preventive measure put in place. Frequent lockdowns and curfew restricted people at home thus reducing the rate at which cars were used. Let’s not forget that our governments argued people to work from home. However, things are now getting back to normal in 2021. Cars are now on roads fully to places that are fully vaccinated. The return of driving means that there will be accidents and many more disasters. A cause for these accidents could be as a result of the drivers running out of practice, drunk driving, and speeding. Insurers are currently under pressure due to the return of cars hence increasing the prices.

 

High repair costs.

 

This is another reason why insurance prices will continue to rise in 2021. High repair cost in this pre-pandemic time is because of the disrupted manufacturing sector. Most manufacturing companies ran short of capital and cut off some of their labourers. Thus a reduction in the rate of spare part production. Service centres have shot up the prices of spare parts due to scarcity. Insurers have no option but to increase the rates. This is because when a claim is made, the insurers spend a lot of money repairing damaged parts and getting new spares. On top of that, the supply chain was also disrupted by the pandemic. High repair costs have made the insurers increase premium rates.

 

How to get better auto insurance deals.

 

There have to be factors that trigger an increase in the prices of the premium rates. However, there are ways which you use to find better deals that are friendly and manageable. They include;

1.Shop around for the best deals

If you are having trouble managing to pay up the premiums or they have just skyrocketed the prices, then shopping around for a new one is the remedy. You can do that by obtaining quotes from competing companies and pick out what is manageable. Don’t forget that cheap is always expensive, it is wise to do comprehensive research on the company you’ve selected and make sure you made the right decision. Make it a routine to go through other company’s quote every two years to find out if there are any low rates in the market. You can check out lowestrates.ca or quotespilot.com for more assistance if need to find the rates of insurance companies.

 

  1. Get rid of coverage which is not necessary.

 

There is some coverage included in the insurance package which the chance of using them is very low. You may never use them at all. It is wise to do away with such coverage. A good example is car rental coverage. Inquire with your insurer and seek to remove any coverage that you find unnecessary. This will be one way of cutting costs.

 

Conclusion.

 

We need to brace up for more increases in the rate of premiums. Research done in 2018 concluded that the average amount one can spend on auto insurance is $1,190. In 2021 the price has increased now to over $1,800. This means that insurance prices especially auto insurance will continue to increase in the coming times.

Synthetic oil.

Conventional oil use reduced by the introduction of synthetic in the market. Synthetic oil is not something new or began being used of late. It has been around since the 1920s. This type of oil is a hybrid kind of oil made up of chemicals that have been engineered together with basic oil to bring out something super in nature. This type of oil is currently in use with almost all automobiles and any other engine out there. 

Synthetic oil came in carried away most drivers trust off the conventional oil. Those who owned old cars turned against the traditional oil and adapted to using the newly modified oil.

Roughly most old car needs to get an oil change after every 3,000 miles. Conventional oil turns out to be super pocket friendly compared to synthetic oil. Synthetic oil costs twice the price of normal traditional oil. This is soothing and promotes peace of mind especially if you live under a fixed budget.  A routine oil change is something you need to consider for your car no matter what. Furthermore, conventional oil just works fine!

  1. Better for the old engine.

It is recommended never to use synthetic oil in an old model’s engine. Long before existed myths which stated that using synthetic oil in old engines caused oil leaks and cracks on oil valves. Well, this was true. However, the main point remains not to use synthetic oils on old cars. Old car engines were meant to use the traditional conventional oil. Using synthetic engine in old cars, for example, may cause gears to grind against each other since it flows smoothly and is less thick. Old car engines were designed for thick oil and that can only be conventional oil.

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR PARKED CAR DURING THE COVID 19 PANDEMIC.

Désolé, cet article est seulement disponible en anglais américain. Pour le confort de l’utilisateur, le contenu est affiché ci-dessous dans une autre langue. Vous pouvez cliquer le lien pour changer de langue active.

It is now over a year since the worst pandemic to ever occur in the universe took charge and is currently still ravaging many parts of the world. From minor report cases, the disease spread like wildfire and conquered the entire world. The pandemic hit almost every sector from trade, transport, manufacturing, and entertainment. Measures were put in place to curb the spread of the virus including; curfews and lockdowns. The lockdowns were harsher and meant to stop the further transfer of the virus from one region to another. Movement from one place to another was restricted only to those offering essential services. People were urged to work from home.

This meant that those who used to drive to work had to now park their cars and stay at home. Up to now, there are some places where that measure is still in place due to the high rising cases and coming up of new variants. Parking your car now that it’s not in use doesn’t mean that you don’t have to take care of it. This is the time your car needs extra care and protection. Failure to do so will make the car stall and completely damaged. There are some measures you need to put in place to protect your car and avoid unnecessary expenses related to repair.

A-Protect Warranty Corporation is here for you during this hard time. We offer extended warranties which are very important for your car. What an extended warranty does is protect you against damages that may arise as a result of parking your car for long without use.

 

  1. Check on your battery.

 

A car’s battery is one of the most vital parts in a car that is prone to damage due to a long period of inactivity. The internal parts of a battery are made up of cells that are responsible for storing current. A long time of no use makes them stall since they need regular current to flow in and out to be functional. The external parts which are the terminals are also prone to getting rust. Rust is formed as a result of air and moisture forms on the terminal which then damages the battery completely. The remedy to that is to remove the battery and store it in a cool and dry place if you intend to park your car for long. Alternatively, you can turn on the ignitions of your car and keep the engine running for at least thirty minutes. This will keep your battery in good form.

 

  1. Fill up the fuel tank.

 

An empty fuel tank or a low-level one is a risk for your car especially if you pack your car for a long time without use. An empty tank gets corroded over time and the low fuel in it deteriorates in quality due to inactivity. It is wise to make sure your tank is full all through and get a fuel stabilizer that can add life to your fuel.

 

  1. Regularly clean your car in and out.

 

 A clean car has fewer chances of getting corrosions or being affected by fungus or bacteria. Corrosion is one of the major issues affecting cars that are parked for a long time. It is formed especially to parts that are not painted like the bottom of the car. The internal parts such as the seat and dashboard now become a harboring place for bacteria and bugs. Rodents also find a good spot for hibernating. Make sure you clean your car thoroughly at least twice after every fortnight.

 

4.Checkup with the car tires.

 

Tires are amongst the parts which get affected most by parking a car for long without use. They deflate over time due to the standstill of the car and develop cracks. If the car is left in such a condition for a long time, the structure of the tire will be completely damaged. The tire will also get torn out completely and be rendered useless. It is important to keep all your tire well inflated and pressure should be at the required amount. You may even decide to jack up the car if necessary. Do frequent drives to keep your car’s tires in form. Do not forget about getting n extended warranty. We have a great team of servicemen at our selected service centers ready for your call.

 

Conclusion.

RAV 4.

Toyota as we all know is a giant firm that is driven by quality to produce all its models. Toyota RAV 4 is a crossover SUV that made its debut in the 90s. The model was very popular first in Japan and Europe and later in the Americas. Amongst the key factors which were implemented to produce it was high demand for enough cargo room, full time four wheel drive feature along with fuel economy. This model has evolved over that period up to now with new and exciting features added to it. RAV 4 needs that extra touch when it comes to 

maintenance since as we all know no even the high selling ones are perfect.

Toyota RAV 4 needs vigilance at all times since it is prone to damage more than the Nissan Rogue. Amongst the frequent issues reported in a RAV 4 are; Transmission failures, Steering problems, and leaking coolant. The transmission as we know is very expensive to maintain and replace in case it develops permanent damage. It is wise to make sure you check up on the transmission more often. Confirm whether the transmission fluid level is right.

The engine of a RAV 4 needs to be cooled at all times since it’s a powerful engine. Leaking engine coolant is one problem associated with most RAV 4 engines. This leads to the engine overheating which increases chances of complete da or accidents. Fires are also prone to occur. The engine coolant fluid needs to be checked frequently to avoid all that from happening.

An extended warranty will work best in such situations. Maintenance that is beyond your ability is usually under an extended warranty contract. Costly repairs as a result of damage to the expensive parts such as the engine and transmission are also taken care of.

 

ROGUE.

 

Nissan is also another Japanese company that brings a lot of competition and influence to the table. One of its leading models in the Americas is the Nissan Rogue SUV. This model was unveiled to the public in October 2007. Over the years, Nissan Rogue has continued to improve in terms of features and performance with the latest model being the 2021 Nissan Rogue. This model boasts a 2.5-liter cylinder engine under the CVT transmission control. Four-wheel drive is something you can’t miss in such type of an SUV. Performance is something out of the ordinary. However, maintenance of your car matters despite your car being that classy or low end.

Nissan Rogue is not immune to damage, just like any other cars out here it often runs into problems. 

One of the common breakdowns as a result of poor maintenance is usually a failing transmission system. This part needs extra touch and care so that it can last long without any issues arising. Nissan was forced to increase its drivetrain warranty to 10 years due to constant complaints from customers. Another important part that needs maximum care is the suspension. The suspension of a Nissan Rogue produces noise which can be a nuisance to some.

 

Conclusion.

Both the two SUVs are giants and performing incredibly amazing. Care and maintenance should be the number one priority immediately after purchasing. This will keep your car in good form and shape and also help you keep your car for long. Toyota RAV 4 is one hell of a kind in terms of performance but maintenance is a bit higher than the Rogue. This calls for high maintenance standards for the RAV 4 but all in all both machines care and maintenance. A-Protect Warranty Corporation is here for you. An extended warranty from us will be of aid.
