I do a lot of driving. Trips to see my family in Brantford, trips to see my family in Arkansas, business meetings and blogging events in Toronto and Michigan, giving my daughter rides to and from university, running errands for the family, going on family outings. So, I rely on my vehicle a lot and I need to trust that it’s in the best shape possible. I try to keep up with everything but honestly, I get busy and sometimes forget to take care of all those little car maintenance chores that need to be done.
Currently, one end of my rear windshield wiper blade is dangling off, in need of changing. I should have taken care of that in the fall when I did the front ones but it was out of stock and I forgot to go back later to get one. My vehicle is also in need of an oil change – something I never seem to remember when the auto shops are actually open and I could actually make an appointment. One day in November, my daughter and I had to pull over (LUCKILY there was a gas station right there) to fill the tires with air because they were dangerously low and I hadn’t been paying attention to them. If I had, I would have known long before that to top them up.
Do you spend a lot of time in your vehicle? Commuting, road-tripping, chauffeuring the kids around? Do you find it tough to remember all those little car maintenance items that need to be taken care of? Maybe you have a teen driver in the family? If you said yes to any of these questions,, you could really use Zubie!
Zubie is a wireless service using a cellular connection to keep you connected to what’s happening with your vehicle. It provides real-time information on: engine and battery health, even providing you simple translations of engine codes and helping to save you money with instant repair estimates. It can also help you track and improve driving behavior by monitoring and tracking speeding, sudden acceleration, hard braking, and more. Zubie can provide you with vehicle location information and if you’re traveling with a group, there’s even a secure trip coordination function that helps you keep track of each other. I don’t know about you but I’m terrible at leading or following other vehicles so this would come in so handy for me!
You can do all of this with Zubie’s easy to install key and free mobile app for iOS 4+ and Android 2.3+. Just think of the peace of mind you could have, knowing that you’re always aware of your vehicle’s condition and maintenance needs, being able to keep track of your teen drivers, and coordinating group road-trips with ease. What a great Valentine’s Day gift this would make for a loved one! Personally, I can’t wait to try it out and be kept up to date on all those car maintenance tasks!
