The Honda safety features you'll find in 2024 vehicles are helpful, high-tech, and great for increasing your peace of mind while driving. From helping you avoid collisions to automating some aspects of driving, Honda's advanced safety tech makes your journeys safer than ever. more Adaptive Cruise Control The days of conventional cruise control are behind us; Adaptive Cruise Control is the improved version that automates more of your driving than ever. You can set a specific speed you wish to remain at along with a distance you wish to keep between you and the car you're behind. Your vehicle alters your speed as needed to maintain your desired distance while keeping you safe. Forward Collision Warning Unexpected things can happen at any time while you're driving. The car in front of you could slow down or stop for any reason, and you won't always notice straight away. If your Honda notices you getting too close to the car in front of you for any reason, then it'll send you a warning so you can address the problem. Collision Mitigation Braking System Lessening the impact of a collision is one of the most important things to do if you can't avoid a crash. That's why your Honda has the Collision Mitigation Braking System. As you know, your Honda alerts you if you're in danger of crashing. If you don't respond to the warning, then the vehicle can apply the brakes. This may help you avoid the collision. If it doesn't, then it should at least lessen the impact of the crash. Lane Keeping Assist System Staying in the center of your lane helps you stay safe, so your car helps you do that. If you're drifting out of the middle of the lane, then your Honda will gently correct the steering to guide you back into place. It can also remind you to keep steering if something causes you to stop. Road Departure Mitigation If you drift to the edge of your lane, then your Honda will send you an alert to make sure you notice. It tugs the seat belt and provides a visual and audible alert. If needed, the vehicle can also correct your steering to guide you back to safety. You'll find these safety features on a wide range of Honda vehicles.

The transmission facilitates smooth shifting between gears to transfer engine power to the wheels. If it's not working properly, it can affect your Honda's performance or leave you stranded on the road. So if you notice signs of trouble, you should visit your Honda dealer immediately for transmission repair. more Delayed Shifting Have you been experiencing delayed shifting with your Honda? Does the vehicle hesitate when accelerating or slowing down? These are signs of worn solenoids or valves in the transmission. These components regulate the flow of transmission fluid for smooth gear changes. Over time, the solenoids and valves wear out, causing delayed engagement when shifting or accelerating. Our certified technicians can inspect the worn transmission components and replace them to restore smooth operation. Slipping Gears If your gears are slipping or barely engaging when you accelerate, you should get your transmission checked for faults. The transmission system uses clutch packs to operate the various gears. When these components wear out, they can start to slip under heavy acceleration. Low fluid levels can also prevent adequate lubrication, causing gear slippage. Both of these issues can cause complete transmission failure if ignored. Visit the dealership, so our technicians can inspect the bands and fix them. They will also top up low transmission fluid to ensure your gears engage properly. Transmission Fluid Leaks Transmission fluid should be at optimal levels for the system to operate efficiently. If you notice a puddle of red fluid underneath your Honda, your transmission is leaking. Leaks occur from failed gaskets and seals, and they can cause friction and premature wear and tear in the transmission components. Leaks can reduce pressure in the system and cause your gears to slip or fail to engage. They also allow dirt to enter the system and contaminate the fluid, reducing its efficiency. If you notice a leak, get it fixed immediately by our technicians to prevent damage to the components. Vibrations When Shifting If you feel strong vibrations when your Honda is shifting gears, it could point to transmission problems like low fluid, worn motor mounts, or damaged gears. Our technicians have the tools and expertise to inspect these components for wear and tear or failure. If you need new components, we can order and install original ones to eliminate vibrations when shifting. Poor Acceleration Hondas are known for their excellent performance, so it's not normal for your vehicle to accelerate sluggishly. If the car doesn't pick up speed or makes unusual noises when accelerating, you could be dealing with clogged transmission lines. Blocked lines prevent the transmission fluid from flowing properly, which can hinder power transfer to the wheels. You should get the lines cleaned and inspected to restore your Honda's performance. Look out for these signs of transmission problems in your Honda and get them fixed promptly to prevent expensive repairs down the road. Contact Burns Honda to schedule a professional transmission diagnosis and repair.

Shopping for a new vehicle involves more than picking out the best make and model for your lifestyle and striking a great deal. Most buyers also need to arrange to finance the vehicle, and fortunately, your local dealership can help. There are advantages to financing through your local Honda dealer. more Your Engine Is Overheating Overheating is one of the most serious problems for any engine. Your Kia has an efficient cooling system designed to control the heat while allowing the engine to operate at an effective temperature. Your engine temperature should sit around the mid-point on the temperature gauge, although it will temporarily climb when you accelerate or drive uphill. If your engine temperature is climbing for no obvious reason, it's in danger of overheating. An engine that gets too hot can result in a blown head gasket, warped cylinders, or damaged pistons. To prevent damage, pull over as soon as it's safe to do so and allow your engine to cool. Our technicians will examine your engine and find and fix the problem. Low Oil Your engine depends on a continual flow of oil for several reasons. Oil lubricates all the moving parts, allowing them to move faster and protecting them from damage. The oil flow helps to reduce the temperature and removes dirt and grime from the engine. The oil is pumped through your engine by the oil pump. At the end of its cycle, it passes through the oil filter that traps dirt and debris. Low oil could be due to natural wastage. Engine oil is consumed as it passes through the system, and gradually your oil level will drop. A lack of oil will increase the engine temperature, allow dirt to build up in the engine, and cause friction damage to various components. We'll test for any signs of a leak and repair it if we find one. We'll also refill your oil. Broken Thermostat The thermostat is a small valve in your engine that controls the flow of coolant. Coolant is vital for your engine, as it absorbs the heat generated by the constantly moving parts. The coolant is pumped to the radiator where the heat is removed. The constant flow of coolant helps to keep your engine temperature under control. If the thermostat fails, it will release no coolant or too much coolant. A lack of coolant will cause your engine to overheat in minutes. We can easily check the thermostat and replace a damaged one in minutes. If your engine isn't working as efficiently as it used to, call us at Superior Kia to schedule a service appointment soon. Image courtesy of Antoni Shkraba via Pexels
