If keeping your car looking bright and shiny is not enough to make washing it a priority, washing your car does more than keeping it looking nice. Washing your car can also save on repair bills in the future. If you have ever come out to find “wash me” written in the dirt, read on.

Washing bug splatters, bird droppings, and dirt from your car will preserve your paint. These things might seem harmless, but they eventually eat through to the paint and damage it. Washing your car also removed road salt, which is an enemy of the working parts of your car. Not washing your car on a regular basis can cause the underneath to rust, and that can mean big repair bills.

Lithia Toyota of Medford in Medford, OR wants you to get the most of your new vehicle and recommends washing it at least once a week to keep it in good working order.
