There are many factors that can impact the performance and handling of your Volvo. This month, I will discuss the importance of proper wheel and tire balance and the effect it has on your Volvo. Modern automobiles continue to have larger and larger wheels. As the diameter of the wheel increases, the size of the tire must change as well. Because of this, many tires have smaller sidewalls. These lower profile sidewalls make even the slightest of imperfections in the wheel or tire balance much more noticeable. Wheel balance is used to cancel the vibration of an out of balance wheel and tire assembly. At 60 mph an average size tire rotates about 850 times per minute. At that speed, even slight variations in balance, sidewall stiffness and/or an out of round wheel or tire will be very noticeable to the driver and passengers. Not only does this significantly reduce the ride quality of your vehicle, it can also cause damage and unsafe conditions such as: Damage to suspension and steerin...

With winter weather arriving early this year, I would like to take a moment to write about a few tips to improve the safety of your winter weather travel. There are many factors to consider before venturing out into the harsh winter environment. Getting your vehicle checked by a professional prior to doing so is a great start to successful winter travel. Below is a checklist to follow to ensure your vehicle is fully winterized: Examine the condition of all four tires (I recommend switching to snow tires for winter travel. Read why here ). Check and adjust tire pressure (For every 10 degrees the ambient temperature drops you lose about 1 PSI of tire pressure. Read more about tire pressure here ). Check the condition of wiper blades, and replace if needed. Check your vehicle’s antifreeze condition to ensure the coolant is mixed correctly to protect against cold temperatures. Check your vehicle’s windshield washer function and switch to a winterwindshield washer fluid. Using a no...

During the month of October, Lehman Volvo Cars helped "Drive Out" Breast Cancer by joining forces with the PA Breast Cancer Coalition (PBCC) and made a donation for every car sold in October. Through October sales and donations, the Lehman team is proud to announce that over $1,650 was raised between the two Lehman Volvo Cars locations in York and Mechanicsburg. Congratulations to all the dealerships that participated in the Drive Out Breast Cancer campaign to raise funds and awareness for this great cause! This is Lehman Volvo Cars’ third year participating in the "Drive Out Breast Cancer" campaign. Over the years, Lehman Volvo Cars has raised over $4,350 for the PA Breast Cancer Coalition. Lehman Volvo Cars looks forward to continuing its partnership with the PBCC and to help "find a cure, so our daughters won't have to."

There are many parents in the Central Pennsylvania region who simply cannot afford new child car seats for their families and unfortunately end up compromising on safety.  Lehman Volvo Cars is standing behind its core value of safety and will be selecting families in need of new infant, toddler, and/or booster seats.  The "Protect the Gifts" car seat campaign is a special program that promotes safety in a unique way. Submit your nomination by emailing contest@lehmanvolvocars.com. Lehman Volvo Cars will select from the nominated families and will provide up to 50 car seats, to be later delivered and installed at both Lehman Volvo Cars facilities.

Jennifer Entler is not only a valued Lehman Volvo employee of 19 years, but she is also a Breast Cancer Survivor. As many of us know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but to Jennifer every month is a chance to spread awareness of this terrible disease that affects so many loved ones. She is a huge advocate for mammograms and believes that early detection saves lives. Spreading the word about the importance of routine mammograms is Jennifer's goal. Read her story below. My Breast Cancer Journey By: Jennifer Entler 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I AM, simply 1 of 8. In April of 2014, at the age of 40, I was diagnosed with breast cancer after my very first mammogram. After five more mammograms, one biopsy, one MRI, one MRI Assisted Biopsy and an ultra sound, DCIS (Ductal Carcinoma In Situ) was found in my left breast and was removed. I had 8 weeks of radiation after surgery to further insure the cancer would not come back and prescribed Tamoxi...

We encourage you to stop by to view our newly renovated showroom, service area and customer lounge area, if you haven't done so already.

With winter weather right around the corner, I would like to discuss a topic extremely important to your safety—winter tires. With many automobiles equipped with All-Wheel Drive, all season tires and other safety systems, you may ask yourself “why should I be concerned with the use of a dedicated winter tire?” All-Wheel Drive will certainly help assist you on snow covered roads when accelerating, but when it comes to braking, steering and maintaining stability, the type of tire makes all the difference. Even the best all season tire is no competition for a dedicated snow tire. The rubber used to make all season tires can harden in cold weather, causing reduced grip. Snow tires are made of a special compound of rubber formulated to provide excellent traction on cold snow covered roads. This type of rubber remains much more pliable in cold weather allowing it to make firm contact with the roadway. Dedicated snow tires have special tread designs made specifically for snow and ice. ...

Jason McKinsey, Lehman Volvo Cars Service Manager, writes about Volvo trending topics, including this month’s segment on the importance of routine brake fluid flushes. Looking for more information on a particular Volvo service topic? Submit your topic suggestion to Jason at jason@lehmanvolvocarsyork.com. Jason’s Journal: Reasons Why Brake Fluid Flushes are Important By: Jason McKinsey, Service Manager Preventive maintenance can make a big difference in your vehicle’s cost of ownership over the years. We all know oil changes are essential, but there are other fluid changes that can help lower your repair cost down the road, such as brake fluid changes. Brake fluid is a hydraulic fluid used to create pressure within the braking system by the force you apply to the brake pedal. That pressure causes the brake caliper to compress the brake pads onto the brake rotor surface. The friction from the brake pads being compressed onto a spinning brake rotor creates heat. The heat tha...

Jason’s Journal: Don’t Just Stop, Think About It  By: Jason McKinsey, Service Manager  Maintaining a vehicle’s brake system has always been an important part of automotive safety.

Jason McKinsey, Lehman Volvo Cars Service Manager, writes about Volvo trending topics, including this month’s segment on the headlight restoration. Looking for more information on a particular Volvo service topic? Submit your topic suggestion to Jason at jason@lehmanvolvocarsyork.com . Jason's Journal: Light Your Way to Safety By: Jason McKinsey Service Manager As your Volvo matures, you may notice a discoloration, or yellowing, of the headlight lens, which may degrade the appearance of your Volvo. But, did you know that this headlight discoloration can also be a safety hazard? The discoloration reduces the light output of the headlight, therefore causing a reduction in your ability to see during night driving. Not only will this reduce the distance you are able to see while driving, it will also reduce the overall clarity of the illuminated area. Many years ago, automotive headlight lenses were made of glass. While the glass never became discolored, the lenses were easil...
