“TT can stop on a dime,” the salesman promised
J. you, ‘‘—and leave nine cents change!”
And your Buick did—when it was new and brake linings
unworn and everything factory-tight and fresh.
But brake linings wear—lights grow dim with time
tires can lose their hite and traction.
And with a whole summer’s driving ahead, what
better time than this to bring your Buick back to new-car peak
in all those details that mean so much to safety?
Check your car—
Check accidents!
Three greot service and safety organi
zations across the country are alerting
car-owners everywhere this month on
safety-checking their cars.
They list ten vital question marks for
you to think obout— How are your
Brakest lighfst Tirest Steeringt Wheel
alignmentt Defective glosst Rear-view
mirror t Muffler t Windshield wipers t
Horn t
Be sure your family rides in safety_
ask your Buick service man to look over
these check - points this month — and
join the greot drive for driving safety I
Our men, trained in Buick ways, will give you brakes
that stop you as Buicks should, with new brake
linings that are right in size and brake drums turned
to perfect round.
They can replace sealed-beam headlights to give
you new-bulb brilliance —and while they’re at it,
check battery, voltage, wiring and headlamp
aim to boot.
They’ll check tires, switch them as needed, look into
wheel alignment for easy steering.
In a word, they’ll renew your Buick with the same care
and interest they would lavish on their own—
and do it at no greater cost than for just
ordinary service. *
So drop in. Get set for some summer fun that’s up
to lively Buick standard.
