Your gas mileage mostly depends on what kind of car you drive; engine displacement and vehicle weight are the largest determining factors on gas mileage, and there’s not much you can do to change either of those. That doesn’t mean attempting to improve your fuel economy is a completely hopeless endeavor, however. With these tips from Old Hickory Car Care Center in Jackson, TN, you might be surprised how much your fuel mileage can be improved.

Charging and electrical systems, particularly on luxury and performance cars, are the most intricate and complex systems on your vehicle.

At Old Hickory Car Care Center in Jackson we have the technicians and the tools you need to get the job done right.

If your car, truck or SUV is experiencing engine issues and you are concerned about having to purchase a new vehicle, our technicians at Old Hickory Car Care Center in Jackson have an answer that will save you money and help you maintain the value of your vehicle.

If you’ve owned a vehicle long, particularly one with a few miles on it, you have probably encountered a peculiar smell that grabbed your attention. Scents that you encounter while driving (emanating from your vehicle, not the horse farm down the road) are indicators of your vehicle's health and often the first warning that something may be wrong. Old Hickory Car Care Center in Jackson has assembled this list to prepare for you for the next time you smell something odd, so you’ll know what’s going on next time you notice a funny smell.

Your drivetrain is where most of the process of moving your vehicle occurs.

At Old Hickory Car Care Center in Jackson, TN, our drivetrain specialists are well equipped to keep your car, truck, or SUV reliably on the road and running smoothly along.
