TOLMAN’S AUTO-TECH GROUP || 5455 Auto Court Allendale, MI || 616.895.7500

Tolman’s Auto Tech TalkIt’s Time for a Vehicle Checkup

As the cooler air creeps into the forecast and sunroofs everywhere are reluctantly closing, weather experts predict another grueling winter may be just around the corner. November is Car Care month, an ideal time to ensure your vehicle is in top running condition for the upcoming winter and holiday driving season. Tolman’s Auto-Tech, recommend a thorough check of your vehicle to make sure it’s road-ready, safe and comfortable for the long haul. At Tolman’s Auto-Tech, we take care of our customers with expert service and quality parts. Proper maintenance can help prevent costly repairs or emergencies down the road. For example, dead batteries strand thousands of motorists when cold weather hits. Extreme hot and cold temperatures are hard on batteries, so make sure the battery and charging system are in good condition – and that the battery is clean and free from corrosion. Depending on the battery, it may need replacing if it’s more than three years old.

Here are additional items to take care of during Car Care Month: Have the heater and defroster checked. Now that the air is cooler, you’ll want tomake sure you can fully clear your windshield of frost or ice. If you want the interior to provide a toasty haven away from the elements, be sure theheater is working properly before the real cold sets in. Inspect your windshield wiper blades & lights: There’s nothing worse than not having a clear view of the road during a storm. Look for tears or cracks in your wiper blades and replace them if they don’t completely clean the windshield. Make sure all headlights, tail lights/brake lights and blinkers are all working properly. NAPA SPECIAL – BUY ONE GET ONE FREE ON QUALIFYING WIPER BLADES. Have the cabin air �lter checked: A dirty, clogged �lter can’t do its job – keeping impurities out of the air you breathe inside the car. Some vehicles have more than one �lter. Ensure all vehicle �uids are at a proper level: Avoid untimely and potentially expensive repairs during the winter by checking your vehicle’s oil and engine coolant – as well as transmission, power steering and brake �uids – now. Examine tires for proper in�ation: You might notice your “Check Tire Pressure” warning light come on during the �rst cold snap of the year. Cold temperatures can cause your tires to be underin�ated, sometimes to a potentially dangerous extent, so make sure to check the pressure often. Get your winter tires put on before the snow �ies, even all wheel drive vehicles. Get a $70 Visa Prepaid Card with a purchase and installation of four eligible FIRESTONE TIRES. Winterforce winter tires are included in this o�er. Increase your reward to $100 when you make a qualifying tire purchase with your NEW or EXISTING CFNA card account. O�er good through November 12, 2017. Assess brake condition: Brakes are always an essential safety component on your vehicle, but especially when driving on ice- or snow-covered roads. Make sure brake linings, rotors and drums are in their best condition.

Motorists can take some steps to care for their own vehicle, such as limiting the time they spend idling to “warm up” their vehicles. It actually doesn’t take long for modern vehicles to warm up, and running the engine for extended periods of time only lowers fuel economy. Another simple but important step is to store some auto necessities in the trunk – such as a tire-changing jack, tire pressure gauge, jumper cables and �ashlight – just in case. Tolman’s Auto-Tech is located at 5455 Auto Court, Allendale. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to Noon on Saturdays. To schedule an appointment, call 616 895 7500. We o�er payment plans with Napa Easy Pay, o�er free shuttle service within the Allendale area, o�er TRIP for local Christian schools and o�er other discounts. Congratulations to J. Geissler winning the monthly drawing.

ALLENDALE CHARTER TOWNSHIP

www.allendale-twp.orgKeeping You Informed!

Information from the Crime Prevention Association of Michigan:

Federal Trade Commission Alert: The Equifax Data Breach: What to Doby Seena Gressin, Attorney, Division of Consumer & Business Education, FTC

The public is always welcome to attend. Please note that the Township O�ce will be closed November 23 and 24 for the Thanksgiving Holiday. Employment Opportunities: Please check the Township’s web site for employment opportunities. We are looking to hire a part time ProjectFacilitator, Water/Sewer Operator, Maintenance, and Human Resource Coordinator. We are also looking for a Recording Secretary for the Planning Commission. If you have interest, please �ll out an application that can befound on our web site or call the township o�ce. Retirement of the American Flag: If you have a worn American Flag that you would like properly destroyed, you can always drop them o� at thetownship o�ce. They are picked up regularly by the local Boy Scout group and burned at a ceremony with dignity and respect. Senior Citizen Information: For services available to senior citizens be sure to check the township web site. Kathy Hanes is the Senior Citizens Director for Allendale Township and would be happy to assist with any questions or concerns you might have. Please feel free to contact her at khanes@allendale-twp.org or by phone at (616) 843-0572. Notary Information:Free notary services are available at the Township O�ce. Remember ….. DO NOT PRE-SIGN your document before coming into the o�ce. You must sign your name in the presence of a notary.

If you have a credit report, there’s a good chance that you’re one of the 143 million American consumers whose sensitive personal information was exposed in a data breach at Equifax, one of the nation’s three major credit reporting agencies. Here are the facts, according to Equifax. The breach lasted from mid-May through July. The hackers accessed people’s names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses and, in some instances, driver’s license numbers. They also stole credit card numbers for about 209,000 people and dispute documents with personal identifying information for about 182,000 people. And they grabbed personal information of people in the UK and Canada too.

There are steps to take to help protect your information from being misused. Visit Equifax’s website, www.equifaxsecurity2017.com. - Find out if your information was exposed. Click on the “Potential Impact” tab and enter your last name and the last six digits of your Social Security number. Your Social Security number is sensitive information, so make sure you’re on a secure computer and an encrypted network connection any time you enter it. The site will tell you if you’ve been a�ected by this breach. - Whether or not your information was exposed, U.S. consumers can get a year of free credit monitoring and other services. The site will give you a date when you can come back to enroll. Write down the date and come back to the site and click “Enroll” on that date. You have until November 21, 2017 to enroll. - You also can access frequently asked questions at the site. Here are some other steps to take to help protect yourself after a data breach: - Check your credit reports from Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion — for free — by visiting annualcreditreport.com. Accounts or activity that you don’t recognize could indicate identity theft. Visit IdentityTheft.gov to �nd out what to do. -Consider placing a credit freeze on your �les. A credit freeze makes it harder for someone to open a new account in your name. Keep in mind that a credit freeze won’t prevent a thief from making charges to your existing accounts. -Monitor your existing credit card and bank accounts closely for charges you don’t recognize. -If you decide against a credit freeze, consider placing a fraud alert on your �les. A fraud alert warns creditors that you may be an identity theft victim and that they should verify that anyone seeking credit in your name really is you. - File your taxes early — as soon as you have the tax information you need, before a scammer can. Tax identity theft happens when someone uses your Social Security number to get a tax refund or a job. Respond right away to letters from the IRS. Visit Identitytheft.gov/databreach to learn more about protecting yourself after a data breach.
