Peace of Mind on Every Road

Shawn Gilfillan • February 5, 2025

When it comes to vehicle repairs, one of the biggest concerns for drivers is reliability. Will the repairs last? What happens if an issue arises after you leave the shop? At Automotive Magic, we understand these concerns, which is why we proudly offer the NAPA AutoCare Nationwide Warranty—a 36-month/36,000-mile guarantee that provides our customers with confidence and peace of mind, no matter where the road takes them.


What is the NAPA AutoCare Nationwide Warranty?

The NAPA AutoCare Nationwide Warranty is a comprehensive coverage plan that protects you against unexpected repair costs for qualifying parts and labor. This warranty applies to repairs and services performed at any participating NAPA AutoCare Center across the country, ensuring that your vehicle remains in top condition no matter where your travels lead.


This industry-leading warranty covers repairs and services for up to 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. Whether you're driving around New Jersey or taking a road trip across the country, you can feel confident knowing that help is always within reach.


Coast-to-Coast Protection, 24/7

One of the standout benefits of the NAPA AutoCare Nationwide Warranty is its coast-to-coast coverage. With over 17,000 NAPA AutoCare Centers nationwide, you are never far from quality auto service if an issue arises. Whether you’re on a cross-country adventure, visiting family in another state, or simply commuting to work, your warranty protection follows you wherever you go.


Additionally, this warranty includes access to 24/7 roadside assistance. This means that in the event of a breakdown, flat tire, dead battery, or other roadside issues, you can count on NAPA’s extensive network to help get you back on the road quickly and safely.


What’s Covered?

The NAPA AutoCare Nationwide Warranty applies to a wide range of repairs and services, including:


  • Engine repairs
  • Brakes and brake system components
  • Steering and suspension
  • Electrical systems
  • Air conditioning and heating systems
  • Fuel systems
  • And more!


If any of these covered repairs fail due to a defect in parts or workmanship within the warranty period, you can have them repaired at any participating NAPA AutoCare Center at no additional cost.

Summer is all about adventure — beach days, weekend getaways, long road trips to places you've been dreaming of all winter. But nothing puts a damper on those big family plans faster than a surprise car issue an hour into the drive. The good news? A quick pre-trip check can go a long way toward keeping everyone safe, stress-free, and focused on the fun ahead. Whether you’re a seasoned road tripper or just heading to the grandparents’ for a long weekend, here’s a simple, smart checklist to help make sure your vehicle is ready to roll. Before You Pull Out of the Driveway, Take a Few Minutes to Check: Your Tires Tires are one of the easiest things to overlook — until something goes wrong. Make sure all four (plus the spare!) are properly inflated. Check your owner’s manual or the sticker inside the driver’s door for the right pressure. Do the “quarter test” for tread depth — stick a quarter into the tread with Washington’s head down. If you can see the top of his head, it’s time for new tires. Look for any visible cracks, bulges, or uneven wear. That kind of damage is a warning sign worth listening to. Well-maintained tires mean better handling, better gas mileage, and a whole lot less stress on the road. Windshield Wipers & Washer Fluid Is there anything more annoying than trying to see through a streaky windshield while your kids are arguing about snacks in the back? ✔️ If your wipers squeak, skip, or smear, it’s time for a new set. ✔️ Top off your washer fluid so you can clear away bugs, pollen, or sudden summer showers with ease. Visibility matters — especially when driving in unfamiliar places or late at night. All the Fluids (Yes, More Than Just Oil) Your vehicle needs more than fuel to function safely. Give these a quick look: Engine oil – clean and at the right level? Coolant – helps prevent overheating on hot summer drives Brake fluid – vital for safe stopping Transmission fluid Windshield washer fluid – yes, again! It’s worth repeating. Don’t stress if you're not sure what you’re looking at — a trusted shop can give these a once-over in minutes. Battery/Alternator Health You don’t want to find out your battery’s on its last leg in the middle of a scenic overlook. Is your car slow to start lately? That’s a sign. Check for corrosion around the terminals. If it’s more than 3 years old, it’s a good idea to have it tested before the trip. A strong alternator keeps everything running — including the air conditioning, charging ports, and navigation. Lights & Signals It's easy to miss a burnt-out bulb, but other drivers rely on your lights to predict what you're doing. Test your headlights (low and high beams), brake lights, turn signals, license plate lights, and hazard lights. Have someone help or do a quick walk-around with your lights on. It’s a fast check that makes a big safety difference, especially when traveling unfamiliar roads. Pack These — Just in Case Even with the best prep, things happen. Having these on hand keeps you ready for whatever the road throws your way: Jumper cables A portable tire inflator Tire pressure gauge Flashlight and extra batteries First aid kit Bottled water and extra snacks Charging cords Blanket or travel towel (multi-use lifesaver!) Pro Tip: Book a Pre-Trip Inspection Want total peace of mind? Bring your car over to Automotive Magic for a quick pre-trip inspection. A professional can check your brakes, alignment, belts, hoses, and everything else you might not have time (or desire) to inspect yourself. It’s fast, affordable, and worth it. We recommend scheduling your appointment a week in advance to make sure any repairs will be done in time for your trip! You’ve packed the bags, planned the route, and made a solid snack strategy — don’t let a simple car issue sideline your trip. A little preparation today means fewer surprises tomorrow and a lot more time for family fun, scenic photos, and unforgettable memories! Happy travels — and here’s to making memories (not emergency stops)!

Hot Summer Month = Coolant Issues

When your vehicle is properly aligned, driving feels smooth, steering is effortless, and your tires wear evenly. But when something’s off—literally—your vehicle will start to give you hints. Alignment issues might seem minor at first, but ignoring them can lead to bigger problems, like accelerated tire wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and even unsafe driving conditions. At Automotive Magic, we believe in catching small problems before they become big ones. Here are the key signs that your alignment may need professional attention:
