Sometimes, odd odors can get inside your vehicle from unknown sources. At other times, you might know exactly what has made your car smell odd, such as a skunk or food left behind. One way to remove odors from your vehicle is with charcoal. All you need to do is open a small bag of the black mounds and leave it in your car for a few days. Another way to remove odors from your vehicle so that you can comfortably drive around Fargo, ND is to keep an open box of baking soda inside.

At Kia of Fargo, we want to help you care for your car with useful detailing tips. If you have a pup, they more than likely take a ride with you around Fargo, ND every now and then. Although it's fun to take your canine companion on a ride, it can also cause pet hair to get stuck in the carpet and upholstery, so follow these tips to help prevent pet hair in your car. Many pet owners invest in a seat cover that helps keep the seats free of sand, dirt, and other debris. Before a car ride, brushing dogs with longer coats can help prevent hair from getting into the upholstery. A dog harness and crate are beneficial because they help keep your dog safe and keep the pet hair limited to one area of your car. Try spraying water mixed with a few teaspoons of fabric softener to the seats and carpet. After the solution has dried, you can vacuum any remaining dog hair.For Other Maintenance and Detailing Tips Contact Our Service Center Today!

When it comes to getting your oil changed, there are a lot of myths on the market. Here at Kia of Fargo, we want our readers and customers to be as informed as possible. That's why we're going to outline a couple of these oil myths. One common myth is that you need to get your oil changed every 3,000 miles. While often taught as fact, this is in fact a very generalized statement. How often you need to change your oil is entirely dependent on your vehicle and driving habits. It can vary from model to manufacturer, with some models only requiring changes every 6,000-7,000 miles. Check your owner's manual for more info on the matter, and to be sure you're not getting ripped off by your mechanic.
