PUBLIC COMPLA CENCY ;
iegiect of car can be costly

ALTHOUGH THE automobile
celebrates its 100th birthday this
year, the most dramatic changes in
auto ownership have occurred in
the past decade or two, says the
Car Care Council.

“Fortunately,'’ says Jim Four-
nier, Car Care Council chairman,
“the vehicle of today is far superi-
or to that of the '70s, and it is
morse forgiving of maintenance ne-
giect than were its predecessors.
The driving public, however, has

been lulled into complacency by
the concept of the low
maintenance vehicle.”’

Research by government and in-
dustry points to a national cost to
consumers of billions of dollars
because of vehicle neglect. Up to
almost balf of this comes from in-
surance cost: a significant percent-
age of fatal highway accidents are
said to be caused by mechanical
defects due to maintenance ne-
glect.

More dollars of lost consumer
money are attributed to wasted
fuel ard air pollution, resulting
from lack of maintenance.

Further, there is the cost of cars
prematurely ‘‘retired’’ because of
maintenance neglect: again, mil-
tions of dollars.

No small factor in the mounting
Statistics of vehicle neglect is the
fact that many people do not know
how to check their car’s oil, tires
and antifreeze.

While there are mandatory ex-
haust emission programs and/or
compulsory safety inspections in
some parts of the country, consen-
sus among authorities is that con-
sumer education and motivation is
the only practical way to improve
the vehicle maintenance habits of
motorists.

Motorists must pay special at-
tention to their car’s care — failing
to do so can be costly.
