TPMS Repair
Your car's tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is designed to warn you about decreases in air pressure in your car's tires. If the TPMS light turns on in your car, be sure to visit us right away. The light may also be on if the system itself has failed, so proper diagnostics will be necessary. A TPMS sensor can fail for several reasons, such as an impact, battery failure, or direct problems with the sensor. Whatever triggered your TPMS light, we'll diagnose and fix it!

Selling new tires isn't a standalone service at Preferred Automotive. We also offer many tire services, such as tire mounting, tire installation, computerized wheel balancing, tire rotations, and flat tire repair.

Wheel Alignment Services
Does your vehicle pull or drift to one side? Is your steering wheel constantly vibrating? Are your car's tires wearing in an odd pattern? These are all signs it is time for a wheel alignment in Rockville. A wheel alignment consists of adjusting the wheels of your vehicle so that all wheels are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ground. This maximizes safety, comfort, and fuel efficiency for your vehicle. We offer two-wheel alignments and four-wheel alignments using computer-assisted equipment for pinpoint accurate results.

Questions about Tires and Wheels
Troubleshooting Guide
Why is tire rotation important?
Rotating tires promotes even tread wear, extends tire life, and improves handling and safety. Contact Preferred Automotive if you need help checking the concern.
How often should I have my tires rotated?
Typically every 6,000 to 8,000 miles, or as recommended in your owner’s manual. Contact Preferred Automotive if you need help checking the concern.
Can skipping tire rotations cause problems?
Yes. It can lead to uneven wear, reduced traction, a rough ride, and ultimately having to replace your tires sooner. Contact Preferred Automotive if you need help checking the concern.
Why does my vehicle pull to one side?
Uneven tire pressure, tire wear, alignment or brake and suspension problems can cause pulling. If the change is sudden or control feels unsafe, stop driving and arrange an inspection. Preferred Automotive can check the tires, alignment and related components.
Why does my steering wheel vibrate?
Wheel balance, tire damage, alignment or worn steering components may cause vibration. A sudden severe vibration needs prompt attention before further driving. Preferred Automotive can inspect the source.
What does a tire-pressure warning mean?
A warning may indicate low pressure or a monitoring-system fault. Check pressures when the tires are cold against the vehicle placard. If a tire is visibly damaged or rapidly losing air, do not continue driving; Preferred Automotive can assess the tire and monitoring system.
