Regular maintenance isn’t just a good idea — it’s essential for maximizing performance and longevity. Whether your car is brand-new or clocking in at six digits on the odometer, we offer full-service preventative auto care that checks every box: brakes, tires, fluids, filters, belts, hoses, and more.
Even better? We don’t just check items off a list—we take the time to explain what your vehicle needs, why it matters, and when it needs to be done. Be sure to take advantage of our exclusive in-shop specials and discounts to save big on your next tune-up!
At Nelson’s, scheduled maintenance is never one-size-fits-all. We customize your service schedule based on your driving habits, your manufacturer’s recommendations, and what we know from years of experience under the hood.
Here's how it works:
We even keep a record of your maintenance history, so you always know where your car stands and when it's due next. No matter what make and model your vehicle is, we’ll craft a preventative maintenance plan that’s totally tailored to your ride!
Catching issues early can save you thousands down the road. That weird rattle, the overdue oil change, or the softening brake pedal — ignore it long enough, and you’re looking at a major repair that could cost some major money.
Our scheduled maintenance services are built to stop problems before they start. When you partner with Nelson’s, you’re choosing a proactive car care company in Minneapolis that keeps you safer, helps your car run longer, and improves resale value. It's a win-win-win!
Many drivers put off scheduling a tune-up for their car, because, well… It’s not necessarily the most fun thing to do!
But the truth is that there’s never a bad time to get more reassurance for your ride, especially when it comes to any of the following scenarios:
Whether you're commuting to downtown Minneapolis or road-tripping across the Midwest, mileage takes its toll. Keep your high-mileage hero going strong with regular check-ups to protect your engine, transmission, and more.
Cold snaps in Minnesota are no joke. Before the snow hits, schedule a seasonal tune-up to inspect your battery, tires, wiper blades, and heating system. We'll make sure your vehicle is ready to take on icy roads and subzero temps.
Have a big trip on the horizon? Don’t let a dead battery or worn tire ruin your getaway! Stop by any of our Minneapolis auto care locations for a multi-point inspection and pre-trip maintenance service to travel with confidence and comfort.
You don’t have to be a gearhead to feel confident behind the wheel. When your car is properly maintained, you can focus on the road and not on what might go wrong next. That’s the kind of peace of mind we love delivering at Nelson’s Automotive!
