A Mazda trade-in often gets top dollar because Mazda models are such well-loved quality cars. However, if you don’t treat your Mazda car or SUV properly, you may end up diminishing its value. Route 9 Mazda is sharing three tips to help you preserve your model’s trade-in value.
Schedule Maintenance Regularly
Maintenance is designed to protect your vehicle and prevent undue wear, and it’s one of the most important factors when it comes to your vehicle’s trade-in value. We look for vehicles that have been regularly maintained according to the manufacturer’s recommendations, preferably at a certified Mazda service center like our own. Don’t forget to keep records of your service visits so that you can prove it’s something that you’ve kept up with.
Utilize Genuine MAZDA Parts
Many auto parts have a limited expectancy and will need to be replaced eventually. When you do need new parts, we recommend utilizing genuine Mazda parts. These parts are produced with the same standards as Mazda vehicles, so you know they’ll be compatible with your vehicle and will be high quality.
Keep it Clean
Cleaning your vehicle is more important than you may realize. When your vehicle is left too dirty for too long, the paint can etch, and it can even lead to rust or corrosion. A dirty cabin doesn’t just look unpleasant, it can also have strong odors, stains, or mold. When possible, keep your vehicle stored in the garage, which doesn’t just help to keep it clean, but can also protect the exterior coat and color.
