We hope you’re as ready for spring as we are. It’s nice to get out of the house and enjoy the warm weather after being trapped inside all winter long. Maybe your Hyundai is ready for a spring refresh? Give it some TLC by washing off the winter dirt and muck. It’ll be showroom-ready in no time.

After hiding in the garage all winter long, give it a good wash to make it sparkle again. Clean those wheels, tires, windows, and mirrors for the perfect finishing touch. Exterior Wash If your Hyundai is begging for a bath, remember to lather it up with a mild car detergent and pamper it with a soft sponge or microfiber cloth when drying. Don't neglect the wheel wells, undercarriage, and behind the wheels; those spots can hide dirt and salt. Waxing & Polishing Give your car that extra attention it deserves, and wax the exterior for added protection. A polish or paint sealant can work wonders to restore the paint's luster. Your vehicle will thank you with a fresh, glossy look that turns heads on the road. Wheels & Tires Make some added time to devote some of your cleaning to your wheels and tires. Grab a dedicated wheel cleaner to tackle that brake dust and grime, and don't forget to apply some tire spray to make your tires look brand new.

A microfiber cloth for a streak-free finish. Calling all Santa Cruz owners! Your winter companion has been working hard with hauling, camping, and more. Now, it's time to give it some post-winter love. Vacuum, wash those mats, and don't neglect the truck bed. A fluid check under the hood is the cherry on top. Vacuum & Wash the Floor Mats You’ll wanna start by taking out your front and back floor mats. Now it’s time to do a thorough vacuuming of the carpets and upholstery. Don't neglect the nooks and crannies under the seats. Now, give those mats a good washing using an approved cleaner. Clean out the Truck Bed Get your truck bed ready for a deep clean by clearing out any tools or equipment. Take it a step further with a complete spray-down to get rid of any dirt and debris. After a good scrubbing, give it a final rinse and then let it air-dry in the sunshine. Under the Hood Don’t forget about the engine bay. Clear away debris and wipe it down with a damp cloth. Take a closer look at hoses and belts for any wear and tear. Keep up with these easy DIY checks, and your Hyundai will always be road-ready. Check Your Fluids Start by refilling the windshield wiper fluid. Take a peek under the hood to check, top off, or change the motor oil, brake, and transmission fluids.

As the end of the year gets near, the talk of New Year’s resolutions seems to pop up everywhere. Where do you see yourself this time next year? What did you not accomplish this year that you will do next year? These are the types of questions you can ask yourself when coming up with your own resolution. While there are plenty of resolutions to choose from, and you can have more than one, we thought we’d make it easy for you. How about choosing some car or driving-related resolutions? Crain Hyundai of Little Rock wants you to be the best driver possible, and we think we can help you achieve that. New Year, New Ride—New Hyundai Available Now at Crain Hyundai of Little Rock Most of us do our best to put our phones away while driving. Unfortunately, that text that comes through or a funny TikTok pops up, and we’re tempted to pick up the phone. This leads to unnecessary accidents. As drivers, we should all be alert and present for the safety of not only ourselves but also our passengers and all the other drivers on the road. For that reason, we think paying more attention while driving is a great resolution. If you need to call someone, use your hands-free Bluetooth calling through your Hyundai Tucson with your smartphone. You can also read text messages through your infotainment screen. Place your phone in the same spot each time, like the backseat or in your console, so you won’t be tempted to grab it. This will help you to keep your resolution of no distractions while driving. You’re running late for work, and you still have to drop off the kids at school. But you’ve just gotten meeting reminders and emails popping up on your phone. You think once you’re in your Hyundai Kona, you can start checking those. Stop lights are not time for business. Before you know it, the light has changed, and someone is honking at you. Pay attention while driving in order to keep up with your resolution. Your day doesn’t have to be filled with constant stimulation. Make your driving time into your free time. It might be the only time you get alone all day. If you aren’t alone ever when driving, then turn it into a time to talk to each other. Pull the passengers away from their screen time and enjoy a conversation in your Santa Cruz. You might learn a thing or two about each other instead of what some random social media star is having for dinner.

Whether you have questions or want to test drive a new Hyundai model, we've got you covered. And don't forget we also have a great selection of used cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans available.

Hyundai vehicles are known for their reliability, but they can suffer faults and failures every now and then, leaving you in need of Hyundai repair. When this happens, you have the choice between visiting your local Little Rock Hyundai dealer or seeking the services of an independent repair shop. This guide will cover some of the key reasons to always opt for the dealer. 1. Unparalleled Experience and Expertise Repair workers at the dealer spend all of their time working on Hyundai cars. They know the brand inside and out, and they're familiar with all the different models on the market. In short, these people are true Hyundai professionals, able to quickly diagnose your car's problems and effectively carry out the necessary repairs. The workers at independent auto shops, on the other hand, work on many different makes and models of cars each day. They aren't specialized in Hyundais, so they aren't always able to figure out what's wrong or decide on the best course of action for your vehicle. This can lead to slower and less efficient repairs. more 2. OEM Parts If your Hyundai needs to have one or more parts replaced, it makes a lot more sense to use official Hyundai parts rather than generic parts that aren't approved or manufactured by the brand itself. Well, the only place you're guaranteed to get those proper OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts is at an official dealer. Dealerships always make use of OEM parts, whereas independent auto shops typically make use of generic parts instead. Generic parts are generally regarded as less reliable and more prone to breaking down. 3. Preserving the Warranty If your car is still under warranty, it's strongly recommended to visit the dealer for any repairs or replacements you might require. This is because many warranty policies can become null and void if the car gets damaged while being repaired at unofficial or third-party repair shops. If this happens, you can be left with a huge bill to cover and no protection from the warranty. Going to an official dealer removes this risk entirely. Even if your car gets damaged somehow while being worked on at a dealership, you'll still be covered and your warranty will remain intact. 4. Efficiency and Value for Money Ultimately, when it comes to car repairs, most owners want to get the best value for money and the fastest repairs possible so that they can get back on the road with minimal fuss. Again, the best place for both value and efficiency is the dealer, because dealer technicians have the knowledge, experience, and equipment necessary to carry out repairs quickly and effectively. If you go to an independent auto shop, they might take a lot longer to figure out what's wrong with your vehicle and order the replacement parts you require, causing you additional inconvenience and delays. Not only that, but they may also be more likely to use lower quality parts and tools, leading to additional repair issues and higher bills than you originally expected. Official, approved Hyundai technicians uphold the high standards of the brand and can get you back on the road without any unnecessary inconvenience, making them by far the best choice whenever your car needs some work. Contact Crain Hyundai of Little Rock today to book your repairs and services.

It is important to schedule service for your Hyundai regularly. Keeping up with the maintenance on your car will save you money in the long run by catching small problems before they become expensive repairs. But getting a Hyundai service isn't just about saving you money. Making sure your car is in good working order also keeps you safe. There's another, often overlooked, benefit to having your car regularly serviced: added resale value. If you ever wanted to sell your Hyundai, being able to present all of your service records will definitely help you seal the deal. One of the great things about getting a new Hyundai is that it often comes with free maintenance for a period of time. Oil and Filter Change Keeping up with your oil changes is the single most important thing you can do to maintain the health of your engine. Making sure you change your air filters when they become too dirty will also add to the life of your engine. Oil and filter changes are included when you have your Hyundai brought in for service. It's important to note that your oil and filters will need to be changed more often than your car needs to be serviced. So, you can't rely solely on your routine service appointments to address those issues. However, it's a good idea to remember when it's time for your service so that you can schedule oil changes accordingly and not waste money getting them done elsewhere. more Tire Rotation Is Part of Your Hyundai Service You'll also get your tires rotated when you have your vehicle is serviced. Rotating your tires improves handling and helps your tires maintain traction. Traction is very important in slick conditions and rotating your tires is essential to keeping you safe on the road. Also, many tire warranties are voided if you do not get your tires rotated within a recommended time, so keep that in mind. Multi-Point Inspection When a mechanic performs a multi-point inspection on your car, he or she checks so many things that, instead of listing them all, the term multi-point inspection is used. If you want to know every single thing that is included in this type of inspection, consult your Hyundai Care guide or consult the mechanic who will be performing the service beforehand. In general, however, during a multi-point inspection, you can expect to have all of your fluids checked (and filled if necessary), your brakes checked, your lights checked as well as your windshield and wipers. Again, this may not be everything included in your multi-point inspection. When your car is driving well and you don't see any obvious signs of a problem, it may be easy to put off having your car serviced. As the old saying goes, though, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. You don't want to wait until you hear a strange noise, or worse, to have your car serviced. Stop into Cain Hyundai for your service needs or if you're looking for a new vehicle.

When your car is operating in top condition, taking it in for its routine maintenance check may seem like an unnecessary, time-wasting effort. But keeping your vehicle maintained is necessary to make sure your valuable time is not wasted by untimely breakdowns. Here are 4 reasons why you'll want to keep up with your Hyundai maintenance checks. 1. It's a Condition of Your Hyundai Warranty Your Hyundai warranty requires you to keep your vehicle properly maintained as a condition of your coverage. In the event you ever need to take in your vehicle for repair under the warranty, regular maintenance checks give you the documentation you need to prove that you've done that. If you don't have these documents, you could be responsible for the costs of the repair, so regular checks can ultimately help save you money. 2. They Stave Off Costly Repairs Scheduled maintenance replenishes material that your vehicle consumes during operation. When oils and filters are not replaced in time, they degrade and become ineffective at protecting your vehicle, leading to the degradation of your vehicle's components. These components eventually fail and replacing them is many times more costly than the fluids and filters that protected them. 3. They Help Catch Small Issues Before They Grow Into Big Problems Your Hyundai mechanics conduct visual inspections of your vehicle whenever they're doing maintenance checks. They know that as a driver, you rarely get the chance to see the hidden, hard-to-reach parts of your vehicle. When they find an issue, they will bring it to your attention, giving you a chance to see the problem for yourself. more Whenever they can, they will try to fix the issue on the spot. That way, you'll leave the shop knowing that they addressed every problem during that one visit. If you skip maintenance checks, you can be certain that those little issues will continue to go unnoticed, and eventually, they'll grow into big problems that almost always lead to costly repairs. 4. They Save You Time and Money Vehicles rarely break down when it's convenient for you. If you're lucky, it simply won't start when you need it, but it's a lot more likely that it will break down in a location you'd prefer it hadn't, or fail at the worst possible time. If you're really unlucky, it'll fail at a time or place that puts your life in danger. You could lose a lot of time waiting for a tow and could end up spending a lot more on your repairs out of desperation. If you use your vehicle to help you make a living, getting regular maintenance checks don't just help you keep it running, they help protect your investment. Keeping your vehicle maintained is the most important thing you can do to keep it running continuously. Visit us at Crain Hyundai of Little Rock and our trained mechanics will help you meet all your vehicle's maintenance needs.
