  Elysian Auto Service: Tips For College Commuters For most college students, summer has ended and classes have started. Many students attend a school away from their hometown, meaning they might have a long commute when going home. Elysian Auto Service wants to pass on some tips so that commuters can safely get where they are going.  -Look over your car before getting in, make sure the tires all look full, check that nothing is leaking onto the ground, and make sure all your lights work. -Fill your gas tank before leaving, that way you don’t have to worry about making it to the next gas station.  -Let someone know when you leave, that way they know when you should arrive and can look out for you.  -Carpool!

  Elysian Auto Service: Do My Tires Need To Be Balanced? Have you had your tires balanced recently? One of the biggest signs you are in need of a balance is a vibration/shake, especially at higher speeds. It can be frightening at first, especially if you aren’t familiar with tire balancing.
