Extend The Life Of Your Nissan Rogue Sport With These Service Tips

By
Posted in Uncategorized

The Nissan Rogue Sport is Nissan’s latest update to the already best-selling model, and was featured in a Nissan Insider video with Remi Maggio. With several luxury and tech upgrades, this car is perfect for both long family vacations and driving to work each morning. But no matter if you are driving a crossover like the Rogue Sport or a sedan like the Nissan Altima, all cars need regular servicing to run a maximum efficiency. At Cardinale Nissan, your local Monterey car dealership, we provide quality Nissan car service that will extend your car’s lifetime.

–

Fluid Rotations

Your car engine requires oil to avoid permanent damage, so around every 4,500 miles schedule an oil and oil filter change. The levels of other fluids in your vehicle such as the coolant and transmission fluid also need to be monitored, and having your service professionals check these during the oil change will keep you on schedule and save time.

–

Engine Maintenance

Much like your tires, the spark plugs and other essential parts of your engine will decay over time and operate less efficiently. An inspection approximately every 40,000 miles can help catch potential problems ahead of time, and save you trouble on the road.

–

Brake And Tire Replacement

Considering how important your brakes are to your car and safety, it’s important to have them checked out about every 60,000 miles. Both the brake pads and your tires erode over time, and will eventually become too thin. Overinflation and underinflation will also make your tires more vulnerable to damage, so consult your owner’s manual to find the proper pressure.

The best part about getting your #NissanRogueSport serviced at Cardinale Nissan is the ability to schedule an appointment ahead of time and skip the wait. Simply head over to www.cardinalenissan.com, where you can also find more information and our best offers on all new and used Nissan models.

Make Driving More Enjoyable With The New Features On The Nissan Rogue Sport

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Nissan’s cars have always been at the forefront of design and technological innovation, like the Nissan Leaf, which pioneered the idea of an affordable electric car. In a recent Nissan Insider video starring the new Nissan Rogue Sport, host Remi Maggio discusses the latest features that push the car above and beyond other crossovers. Over at a Monterey auto dealer like Cardinale Nissan, you can experiment with these features for yourself and see just how impactful they are on the Rogue Sport’s driving experience.

–

Luxury Technology

Luxury features make a good car even better, making routine tasks easier and less time consuming. The real-time navigation can be displayed on the infotainment system with many details, and if you just want the turn by turn directions they can be shown in between the gauges. Parking becomes easier with the 360-degree camera that can be activated to give you a bird’s eye view of the surroundings. The parking assist feature will also help guide you into the spot at a straight angle.

–

Safety Standards

Along with technological advancements, Nissan’s safety standards have increased with every new model. The “Intelligent Mobility” system constantly monitors movement all around the car, keeping an eye out for pedestrians and other cars. The #RogueSport can even stop the car in the event of an impending collision. The Blind Spot warning system also works to make highway lane changes safer by alerting you to the presence of other cars.

While the Nissan Rogue Sport offers an incredible driving experience, at Cardinale Nissan we make sure your car buying experience goes smoothly. For additional information about all our models or our Nissan car services, check out the Nissan YouTube channel or www.cardinalenissan.com.

Nissan Reveals New Nissan Rogue Sport In Latest Video

By
Posted in Uncategorized

One of the standout vehicles of 2017 is the Nissan Rogue, with its new design and hybrid engine. It not only dethroned the Nissan Altima as Nissan’s most popular model, but also beat out crossovers from other automakers. Building on the original’s success, Nissan has designed a specialized version known as the Nissan Rogue Sport. You can enjoy a walkaround of this car online in the latest Nissan Insider video, or you can check it out for yourself at Cardinale Nissan in Monterey.

–

Impressive Storage Space

Crossovers are popular because of their seating and storage capacity and flexibility. The #Rogue Sport’s underfloor storage area is an ideal spot for essentials like a first aid kit, snacks or an umbrella. Since it is also out of sight, you can also store any valuables you don’t want to carry. The sizable 61.1 cubic feet of cargo space makes packing for extended trips and family outings a breeze, and with the fold up divider, you can keep small or round objects like basketballs from rolling around too much.

–

A Redesigned Driving Experience

Creating a pleasant and fun driving experience is the main focus for all Nissan cars. The exterior has been reimagined with “emotional geometry” in mind, with a mix of sharp and smooth edges providing a nice contrast. The sleek design also makes the car more aerodynamic, which in turn boosts the car’s fuel efficiency to an impressive 32 mpg highway.

Cardinale Nissan is the only Monterey car dealership where you can test drive the new Nissan Rogue Sport and find exceptional deals on all new and used cars. To discover more about the Rogue Sport or any other model, head over to www.cardinalenissan.com.

Monterey county is filled with exciting places to explore and some incredible scenery to look at along the way. For enjoying a scenic drive, there is no better car for families than the Nissan Rogue Sport, which was recently featured in a Nissan Insider video on YouTube. The car is packed with interesting and useful features like an infotainment and navigation system, as well as a large interior and trunk space. After you drive off from a Monterey auto dealer like Cardinale Nissan in a new #Rogue Sport, be sure to check out these drives around Monterey for a relaxing and fun-filled time.

–

17-Mile Drive

The 17-Mile drive has been one of the most scenic routes in the country long before the first commercial cars became available. Back in the 1880s, guests at the Hotel del Monte would travel this road by carriage in order to gaze upon the magnificent scenery and variety of wildlife. Nowadays you can enjoy the view from the comfort of the climate controlled Rogue Sport, and only spend half of a gallon of gas to do so, thanks to car’s efficient motor. Other notable stops include Lone Cypress, the Lodge at Pebble Beach and several mansions.

–

Carmel-by-the-Sea

Although this drive only takes place in an area of about one square mile, it includes a staggering number of vistas and historic locations. The first stop is Carmel Beach, which features pure white sand and crystal clear water to cool off in. The trail then heads over the Point Lobos State Natural Reserve and then to Mission Ranch, which is owned by Clint Eastwood. It then concludes with one of the founding buildings of Monterey, the Carmel Mission.

The most important factor for any car is the driving experience it creates for you, so come down to a Monterey car dealership like Cardinale Nissan to test drive this new model for yourself.

Conquer Nighttime Driving With These Cardinale Nissan Service Tips

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Driving at night requires far more concentration and practice than driving during the day. When it is bright outside, it’s easier to see the whole length of cars running alongside you, and shifting lanes is much safer. A large survey by SYLVANIA Automotive posed a question about night driving to motorists and found that over 60% of drivers try to avoid driving after the sun goes down. Cardinale Nissan wants to make your driving experience safer and more enjoyable, and we offer several upgrades and Nissan car service options that can help you prepare better for nighttime driving in Monterey.

–

Headlight Repairs

Having a reliable source of bright light is crucial for driving safely at night. Without proper illumination, any rural or poorly lit road will be extremely treacherous to drive on as you may not be able to see upcoming turns or objects in the road. Faulty tail lights won’t be able to relay your turn signals to other drivers, and they won’t be able to know your intentions. The glass that covers your headlights can also become grimy and opaque over time, reducing the amount of light that passes through it. Our trained mechanics at your local Monterey auto dealer can get these problems fixed for you in no time.

–

Part Upgrades At Cardinale Nissan

With only a few upgrades, you can make your car better suited for night time travel. High-performance headlights enhance the quality of the lighting and the distance that is revealed, giving you more time to react. At #CardinaleNissan we can also help replace any worn-out brake pads or tires and help you find the best replacement for your budget. For a list of all the services we offer and more information about all our car models, head over to www.cardinalenissan.com.

Summer is a great time to buy a new or used car at Monterey car dealerships. Not only does Cardinale Nissan have some of the best sales of the year going on, our fuel efficient cars will also help you avoid the rising summer gas prices. The electric Nissan Leaf will let you avoid the crowded and hot gas stations all together, and with all the incentives available on this car it will cost a lot less than you may think.

–

A Better Nissan Leaf

Each year Nissan works hard to make sure the newest Leaf is faster, more efficient and offers a better driving experience than ever before. The Leaf can now drive for over 100 miles before needing more power, which is a 30% increase over last year. Safety was also a major focus for Nissan this year, and they added a whole suite of Safety Shield technologies such as Blind Spot Warnings and Cross Traffic Alerts. This allows drivers to be more aware of nearby moving cars and makes changing lanes much safer in traffic.

Affordability is extremely important for electric cars, and the #NissanLeaf provides the most bang for your buck of any car on market right now. There are several incentives already, like a $7,500 federal income tax credit. Nissan is also teaming up with many gas and electric providers around the country to offer an additional $10,000 off a 2017 Leaf lease.

Nissan’s Latest Campaign Helps Drivers To “Kick Gas”

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Having to get gas while on the way to work or an important event can be a pain. You need to locate a gas station, find out how to get into the parking lot and hope there is an empty spot. Hopefully the gas isn’t too expensive, and the whole detour can delay you by 5 or 10 minutes. It would be great to not have to go through this process, so what would your answer be if a stranger paid for your gas, then told you to go buy an electric car from a Monterey auto dealer like Cardinale Nissan?

–

Kick Gas With Nissan

“Kick Gas” is Nissan’s latest campaign to encourage drivers to make the switch to electric cars, and it’s doing so by paying for gas all around the country. Throughout the summer, Nissan will be handing out free gas in select cities, helping drivers understand how it feels to not have to pay for their car’s fuel.

The all electric #NissanLeaf can be charged at your house every night so you never need to worry about running out of energy. Electricity is not only cheaper than gas, but it also eliminates the need to visit a gas station entirely, saving you time on your journey.

Along with free gas, customers will also get the chance to talk with Nissan representatives and get answers to any concerns or questions they may have regarding electric cars.

After a warm shower, food from First Awakenings is one of the best ways to wake up in the morning. They offer a wide variety of dishes so that everyone can find something they like, from salads made with local produce to eggs cooked in every way you can imagine. Be sure to try their homemade crepeggs, which combine and eggs and crepe into one incredibly fluffy and sweet dish. Much like an omelet, they can be filled with the toppings you want, including freshly sliced avocado, mushrooms and their special dressing. They also offer lunch foods like burgers if you are craving something heavier.

Experience The Best Lineup Of Fuel Efficient Cars In America At Cardinale Nissan

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Summer leads to generally higher gas prices, so people are always looking for ways to be more fuel efficient and lower their carbon footprint. One of the most significant sources of pollution is transportation, and there are many older vehicles that have a low EPA fuel rating. This leads to greater emissions and more severe ozone warnings. Thanks to Nissan’s award winning hybrid and electric car lineup though, it’s easy to save gas and the environment at the same time, so head over to Cardinale Nissan today.

–

Nissan Leaf

Electric cars are predicted to be the way of the future thanks to their incredible efficiency, compatibility with self-driving systems and very little need for Nissan car service. Nissan’s engineers have work hard to design a battery that will keep the car going for over 100 miles without recharging. And, thanks to Nissan’s new No Charge To Charge program, there are thousands of free charging stations all around the country that will have your car ready to go again in about 20 minutes.

–

Nissan Rogue

For people who don’t want to make the full switch to an electric car, a hybrid model like the #Rogue is a great middle ground. The crossover design is more aerodynamic and spacious than ever before, and you now have the option to choose between another row of seating or added cargo space. The hybrid component makes driving on city road less taxing and emission free, which gives the car an EPA estimated 34 mpg combined.

The best Monterey car dealership to see if either of these 2017 models are right for your life is Cardinale Nissan. Whether you are looking for reliable service or a great offer on any new or used car, visit us in store or online at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Capture Any Off-Road Adventure With Nissan’s Latest Duo – 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

By
Posted in Uncategorized

People love to share what is happening to them nowadays more than ever. You don’t need a sophisticated camera to capture stunning photos or videos anymore, and being able to look back on and share our experiences with others is always a treat. Taking a selfie is easy, but capturing the off-road capabilities and outdoor escapades in a car is difficult with a standard camera. Nissan wants people to be able to easily capture their automotive adventures, and has combined one of their advanced crossovers with the versatility and power of a remote-control drone. To see how you can get your hands on this incredible package, head over to a Monterey auto dealer like Cardinale Nissan.

–

Europe has already had access to the #drone and car combination, and it will soon become available at Monterey car dealerships. The Nissan Pathfinder was specifically chosen for this package, thanks to its design that is fit to handle the atypical terrain found on trails. The crossover design allows the car to hold many passengers, heavy amounts of cargo or a good mix of both. The 284-horsepower engine is strong enough to accelerate the car over any bumps or larger rocks, and the tires are designed and reinforced to avoid puncture. The included NissanConnect package also features satellite navigation so you will never get lost.

–

The biggest benefit of the Pathfinder’s infotainment system is its connection to the Parrot Bebop 2 drone that is included. The display can show exactly what the drone’s camera is displaying, so you can make sure your video or pictures are amazing. Using the “follow me” GPS command, the drone can stay above the car as it moves, recording the story of your outdoor travels.

–

Monterey county and California in general are full of beautiful locations to explore in the Nissan Pathfinder. Come down to Cardinale Nissan today and let us show you a better car buying experience, or you can visit us online at www.cardinalenissan.com.
