Is your vehicle ready for winter?

Is a Small Leak Holding You Back? A minor fluid leak may seem insignificant, but it can potentially lead to significant problems down the road. Your vehicle's vital components rely on oil, coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and other essential fluids to function properly.

If the level drops too low, the consequences can be severe. While adding fluid may provide temporary relief, it doesn't address the underlying issue. If you notice a puddle or spots under your vehicle, visit Wilton Auto & Tire Center. Our expert team will identify the source of the leak, diagnose the issue, and provide a solution. A small leak presents an opportunity to take proactive measures before it becomes a major concern.

⚡ Did you know fully electric vehicles are exempt from emissions testing?

It comes down to tailpipe output — EVs don't burn gasoline, so they don't produce pollutants like hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, or nitrogen oxides. No tailpipe emissions means nothing to test.

Hybrids are a different story, and it varies by state: some exempt hybrids along with full EVs, while others require testing since hybrids still have a gas engine under the hood producing emissions.

Not sure what your vehicle needs? Wilton Auto and Tire Center can help you sort out testing requirements and keep you road-ready.

Did you know your sunroof isn't actually waterproof?

It's not sealed like your windshield — it's designed to let some water in and drain it back out safely. When that drainage system fails, that's when you get a leak.

Top 5 causes: 1️⃣ Clogged drain tubes 2️⃣ Worn or cracked seals 3️⃣ Misaligned glass/track wear 4️⃣ Damaged drain tray or frame 5️⃣ Hidden damage from a past impact

Don't let a small leak turn into interior or electrical damage. Our ASE® certified technicians can find the real source of the leak and fix it right the first time. Schedule your service today at Wilton Auto and Tire Center. #

Your tires are your only contact with the road — don't ignore the warning signs.

A tire that keeps losing pressure may just need a repair — but drive on it underinflated too long and it can be damaged beyond fixing. Uneven wear can signal alignment, suspension, rotation, or balance issues, and replacing the tire without fixing the cause just brings the wear back.

That's why we recommend a service visit every 6 months — we'll inspect your entire vehicle and flag anything that needs attention.

Don't wait if you notice: a bubble/bulge, exposed cords, deep cracking, repeated pressure loss, sudden vibration, curb/pothole damage, or a TPMS light that won't turn off.

Quick Tip: Check pressure when tires are cold — a warm tire can hide low pressure with a falsely high reading.

Notice any of these? Bring it in to Wilton Auto and Tire Center, we've got your covered!
