Breathe Deep in Lewis Center With a New Cabin Air Filter

September 15, 2019

Poor interior air quality is nothing to sneeze at, and Lewis Center auto owners might be interested to know that more and more new cars are coming equipped with a cabin air filter. Check your vehicle owner's manual, but they typically need to be replaced at around 12,000 to 15,000 miles (19,000 to 24,000 kilometers).

The filter is usually under the vehicle hood or under the dashboard. Some are a little tricky to get to, so you'll want to have your friendly and knowledgeable Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Center Lewis Center service advisor take care of replacing them.
