Divine's Auto Center & Towing Tech Question on Engine Failure

Last Updated: Jul 01, 2025

Divine's Auto Center & Towing Tech Question:
I'm Collins of Spokane. I had my engine go out and had to have it completely re-done at Divine's Auto Center & Towing in Spokane. What could I have done to prevent this?

Divine's Auto Center & Towing Tech Answer:
You've got to feel for Collins: an expensive major engine rebuild is pretty extreme. It's a tough situation to be in: maybe you're still making payments on your vehicle and nobody wants to buy it with a blown engine, so you really have no choice but to pay the money to get it fixed.

This is why your manufacturer and Divine's Auto Center & Towing have preventive maintenance schedules to help you avoid major repairs. Suppose you don't change your timing belt on schedule and it breaks. That can mean bent valves and a damaged cylinder head.

Maybe you've skipped over the Divine's Auto Center & Towing recommendation to replace your coolant and end up with catastrophic overheating.

It could be you've skipped a few too many oil changes and now sludge has built up in your vehicle to the point that expensive parts in your engine are being damaged.

Check your vehicle oil level every month and follow your recommended service schedules. And if you're behind on any services, ask your friendly and knowledgeable pro at Divine's Auto Center & Towing to help you work out a plan to get caught up.
