One of our Brown and Wood service offerings is educating drivers about the stop-start feature. This system, available on Buick and GMC vehicles, automatically turns your engine on and off in specific situations. As part of our Brown and Wood service FAQ, Brown and Wood Buick GMC answers the question: will the stop-start feature hurt my engine?

WHAT DOES THE STOP-START FEATURE DO?

The stop-start system automatically shuts off and restarts your engine when you’re at a complete stop. For example, the engine will turn off if you brake to a halt and then turn back on when you release the brake. It’s a convenient feature, but some drivers believe it harms the engine — a myth we’d like to bust.

DOES STOP-START HURT MY ENGINE?

Because the engine turns on and off frequently, you might worry about what it’s doing to your vehicle. However, the stop-start feature is designed to last for hundreds of thousands of starts so that it won’t interrupt your mechanical system in any way. You can rest assured that the stop-start feature isn’t impacting your engine’s performance or diminishing service life.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THE STOP-START FEATURE?

With the stop-start feature enabled, your engine won’t waste fuel while idling. This improves fuel efficiency, emissions performance, and the vehicle’s carbon footprint. However, this feature isn’t forced on drivers since it can be turned off with a button press.

SCHEDULE GM-CERTIFIED SERVICE IN GREENVILLE, NC

Every GMC truck and Buick SUV needs maintenance over its lifetime, but all else being equal, the engine stop-start feature is one of the least problematic. However, if you notice an issue or simply want a thorough checkup for your vehicle, we welcome you to schedule a maintenance visit at Brown and Wood Buick GMC. We’ll ensure your car’s ready for anything!

When you look at used trucks for sale, many questions come to mind. In addition to questions about specific models and features, you might wonder whether a used truck is a good investment. Brown and Wood Buick GMC draws on our decades’ worth of collective experience to answer this common question and explore how used trucks make an excellent investment.

LOWER PRICE POINTS

One of the benefits of used trucks is the lower purchasing price. You’ll pay less upfront for a used vehicle, with both purchasing and leasing options receiving benefits.

You should also consider depreciation. Both new and used vehicles will depreciate after you’ve bought them, but having taken that initial hit, used trucks depreciate slower than new models. Thus, it’s often a safer investment in the long run.

WARRANTY AND MAINTENANCE

Regular service is critical on a used truck. By keeping up with scheduled maintenance and addressing issues quickly, you can protect your investment in the vehicle.

Used trucks are also eligible for warranties, which can help you further safeguard against devaluation. Warranties help negate the cost of essential repairs; thus, you won’t be out of pocket if a severe accident occurs.

RELIABILITY

Durability is often a big sticking point for used truck shoppers. A used vehicle can be as reliable as a new one if adequately maintained.

It helps to know the truck’s history, including previous owners, age, mileage, and service history. A truck that’s been gently used and serviced regularly is often a safe investment.

BROWSE USED TRUCKS FOR SALE AT BROWN AND WOOD BUICK GMC

If you’re shopping for used trucks for sale in Greenville, NC, our dealership is here to help. Visit Brown and Wood Buick GMC today to shop for used trucks or discuss available warranty options.

Have you been turned down for GMC financing recently? Getting rejected for auto financing can feel rough, but you still have plenty of options if this occurs. Brown and Wood Buick GMC recommends these steps if you’ve been turned down for GMC financing.

IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT SCORE

You may get rejected because of a low credit score or poor credit history. By improving your credit score and showing that you’re a reliable borrower, you can demonstrate to financial institutions that you’re eligible for financing.

DISPUTE ANY ERRORS

We’ve seen it happen before: you settle a medical debt, but your credit isn’t updated. Perhaps your identity was stolen. Credit report errors occur, and if you’re rejected for GMC financing, it’s not a bad idea to make sure your report is clean by contacting the credit bureaus if you find errors.

ADD A CO-SIGNER

A co-signer helps assuage financial institutions that aren’t as confident in your financial standing. Your co-signer will assume responsibility for the loan if you fail to make monthly payments, so it’s essential not to take on a larger loan than you can afford.

SEEK OTHER OFFERS

Different financial instruments have different qualifications. If you’re turned down for a lease, you may still qualify for a new car loan or used car financing. Keep your mind and options open.

GET PRE-APPROVED NEXT TIME

When you’re ready to try financing again, we recommend applying for pre-approval first. This lets you verify your financial details and make smarter shopping decisions; it can also speed up the overall loan process.

EXPLORE GMC FINANCING OPTIONS AT BROWN AND WOOD BUICK GMC

Even if you’ve been rejected for financing in the past, we can leverage our network of lenders to help you find alternatives. Contact Brown and Wood Buick GMC today to see what financing offers are available.
