Cardinale Nissan Can Fix Any Of Your Car Electrical Problems

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Electricity is important for so much in our daily lives nowadays. From your alarm clock that goes off in the morning, to the light bulb that illuminates the house and the coffee pot you switch on for your morning cup, every modern convenience needs power. Your car also requires electricity, and regular Nissan car service will help keep everything running properly and reliably. For any electrical problem that your car may experience head over to a Monterey auto dealership like #CardinaleNissan to have it repaired in no time.

Battery Problems

The source for many electrical malfunctions is often the battery, which can also lose charge if you leave an extra light on or forget to turn off the headlights. Generally, you can simply use cables and another battery to jump it, but in rare cases the battery can be fully dead. Owning a backup is always nice, but if you don’t, Cardinale Nissan can supply and help install a new one.

–

Brake Lights And Headlights

Both sets of lights are critical to driving safely and alerting other drivers to your presence. The headlights pierce through the night and are even more important when driving through fog, which happens a lot on the coast. The brake lights signal to other drivers that you are slowing down so they can follow suit, and need to be fixed as soon as possible if they are not working.

–

Dashboard And Infotainment System

Being aware of measurements such as speed and engine temperature is important, and during the night can be nearly impossible without dashboard LEDs.  The infotainment system isn’t crucial to driving safely, but many features like Android and Apple Car Play, as well real-time navigation, are useful to have access to. If any of these electrical systems need fixing, don’t hesitate to visit Cardinale Nissan or schedule an appointment online at www.cardinalenissan.com.

See All The Incredible Stops On Monterey’s 17-Mile Drive In Your Nissan

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Cars have many uses beyond just getting us from place to place. Sure, it’s important to have a car that will reliably drive you to work each morning and enough room for all the sports equipment that the kids need, but there are plenty of exciting adventures you can embark on in a Nissan. From exploring nature with an off-road equipped Nissan Titan to taking a road trip with some good friends, it’s easy to spend an afternoon in the comfort of your own car. At #CardinaleNissan, one of our favorite places to enjoy is 17-Mile Drive, Monterey’s scenic route on the California coast.

–

Scenic Locations

17-Mile Drive was described as one of America’s Most Scenic Drives by Travel + Leisure magazine. It winds down the open and beautiful coastline this county has, passing by iconic golf courses like Pebble Beach and gorgeous overlooks. At Huckleberry Hill you can view the ocean as it is framed by the Monterey Pines forest, and The Restless Sea stop provides an amazing view of the turbulent Pacific waves. Along the way you can also stop at several beaches that animals call home, including sea lions, otters and many species of birds.

–

Famous Stops

While nature accounts for many of the best stops on the route, there are several man-made locations that shouldn’t be missed. The Pebble Beach Golf Course is open to the public for putting and a tour of the incredible clubhouse. Afterward, be sure to head over to the Tap Room, a dedicated golf pub that is filled with historic memorabilia from the five U.S. Opens that have been held over the years at Pebble Beach. There are also a number of boardwalks along the way with different shops and entertainers.

The most important part of any journey on the 17-Mile Drive though is the car you experience it in, so head to Cardinale Nissan to browse our new models like the 2017 Nissan Altima. Come see why we are the best Monterey car dealership, or visit us online at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Enhance Your Next Camping Experience With The Nissan Titan XD Pro-4X

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Nissan Titan XD Pro-4X

Lately, car manufacturers have been dedicating resources to producing off-road vehicles. A little adventure is fun, and with new trucks like the Chevy Colorado ZR2 and the Ford F-150 Raptor, it’s easier than ever to head onto the dirt trails. Nissan recently unveiled their latest off-road specialist, a modified Titan that offers a whole suite of outdoor features, such as off road tires and expanded storage capabilities. To experience the epic number of new features and upgrades this truck has, visit a #Monterey car dealership like Cardinale Nissan.

–

The new Titan Pro-4X is aimed at making camping or spending the night off-road an easier task for both beginners and experts. The 5.0-liter Cummins V8 provides the extra low-end torque that is necessary for crawling over rocks and other debris you might encounter. The tires have also been specialized by making them larger and thicker to provide better traction and grip on dangerous surfaces. Front and rear bumpers protects the car from getting damaged while traversing natural terrain, and rock sliders have been added to protect the bottom of the car from larger rocks.

–

Several pieces of equipment have also been integrated into the design to make packing easier. A Leitner Designs Overland bed cage and Rhino Pioneer Rack provide extra storage and a sturdy base for a CVT Stargazer Tent. This luxurious tent easily folds out from the top of the truck and even has an easy access ladder. The Titan Pro-4X has been appropriately nicknamed “Project Basecamp,” as it acts as a perfect base of operations.

–

Cardinale Nissan is the only Monterey auto dealer where you can experience the versatility and sheer number of features that Project Basecamp offers. Whether you are looking for a sedan like the Nissan Altima or a truck like the Nissan Titan, you can browse all our new and used models at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Get The Most Out Of Your Tires By Inflating Them To The Right Pressure

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Tire Inflation

No matter where you drive to, you rely on your tires to deal with the road. On the smooth highways of Monterey, they help you navigate the lanes, and on bumpy roads they manage the uneven terrain. The treads on your tires will eventually wear down, but having underinflated or overinflated tires can increase the wear and tear they receive. Our experts at #CardinaleNissan can help show you how to properly inflate your tires to the optimal pressure.

–

Overinflation

Overinflated tires are extremely dangerous because of their sensitivity and rigidity. Your tires need a little leeway in order to curve with the road and properly bend, but tires with extra air will hit each bump and hole with full force. This will ultimately lead to a rocky and unpleasant driving experience, and your tires will be more vulnerable to being punctured by sharp rocks or other debris.

–

Underinflation

Underinflation isn’t as rough or dangerous as tire overinflation, but it will cause the tread to rapidly wear down. A less firm tire will have more of its surface in contact with the road. This larger surface of contact will generate heat much more rapidly, greatly reducing your fuel efficiency and damaging the treads.

Every tire set, including the one on your Nissan, has a specific pressure it need to be inflated to in order to function efficiently. Your car’s manual will have this pressure, and you can check the inflation level with a psi meter. If you need assistance with this or any other Nissan car service, Cardinale Nissan is just a few minutes away.

The Versatile Nissan Rogue Will Is Fit For Any Driver

By
Posted in Uncategorized

2017 was a huge year for the Nissan Rogue, as its yearly update brought substantial changes. Nissan created a perfect blend of sport, safety and style that when combined with its fuel economy and price has made it Nissan’s best selling model. To experience all these new features and customization options at a Monterey car dealership, head down to #CardinaleNissan.

–

The introduction of a hybrid engine option was the most anticipated change for the Nissan #Rogue this year. The 2.0 L engine provides a substantial amount of power and acceleration, but also sports an EPA estimated 33 mpg, so you can avoid the summer gas price hikes. The Rogue’s immense popularity has caused Nissan to introduce several special editions of the car. The Nissan Rogue Sport is smaller and more affordable, while still offering many of the same features, and the heavily requested Midnight edition includes a full black redesign.

–

One of the more overlooked but vitally important updates the Rogue received was the addition of several premium safety technologies. Features like a Blind Spot Monitor notifies you if a car passes through the area when you are about to change lanes, while the Forward Emergency Brake can avoid impending collisions. The Lane Departure Warnings prevent the driver from swaying out into busy traffic, and improved traction control makes wet and uneven roads easy to handle.

–

The best way to see why the Nissan Rogue rapidly became Nissan’s best selling car is to hop behind the wheel and take a test drive for yourself at Cardinale Nissan. You will also find great deals on all our new and used models like the Nissan Altima, so head over to www.cardinalenissan.com.

Meet The All-New Nissan Rogue Sport

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Nissan Rogue Sport

Thanks to its incredible versatility and power, the Nissan Rogue has become Nissan’s top selling model. This unique crossover combines a high fuel economy with a comfortable interior, and it even has a hybrid engine option that lowers emissions and raised fuel economy. Some drivers don’t need the large space a crossover offers though, so Nissan has created the all-new 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport, a smaller car that will debut at Monterey auto dealers like Cardinale Nissan by the end of May.

–

Many drivers simply don’t need the additional space that a full-size crossover offers. The Rogue Sport is lighter, smaller and more importantly cheaper, making it a better fit for single drivers. It will also include all the luxury and safety features that makes the #Rogue so appealing, such as adaptive cruise control and premium interior seating. Other notable safety features include blind-spot alerts and autonomous front emergency braking that can stop the car in the event of an impending collision.

–

The new Rogue Sport has already found success in other countries, thanks to its compact design. When it reaches North America, the car will be ideal for city drivers who are want the features that a larger SUV offers, but in a smaller and more nimble design. The car also sports a voice activation setting for the touchscreen infotainment system, so you can change the navigation or skip a song without taking your hands off the wheel.

–

Be on the lookout for exciting release offers at Cardinale Nissan, your local Monterey car dealership. Come test drive any of our exceptional models and find your new dream car, or you can browse our whole inventory online at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Nissan Develops New Solution To Distracted Driving

By
Posted in Uncategorized

Distracted Driving

Distracted driving due to smartphones is a dangerous and worrying trend among drivers today. Traffic on busy roads or on a highway can change in the blink of an eye, and it can be hazardous to look away for even a second. At Nissan, we are committed to finding solutions to safety problems, so be on the lookout for the Signal Shield at Cardinale Nissan, your Monterey car dealership.

–

The Signal Shield is an experimental new approach at preventing distracted driving by temporarily preventing the phone from connecting to the outside world. This small box clips onto the driver’s armrest and blocks the phone inside from getting or sending any WiFi, Bluetooth or phone signals. Nissan is hoping this will remove the urge to constantly be glancing down looking for new notifications or text messages. Drivers will still be able to use the media functions though, thanks to a small hole which provides just enough room for an auxiliary cable.

–

A Signal Shield box is essentially a miniature Faraday cage, which blocks whatever is inside from receiving any outside #signals. Many states already discourage distracted driving by making cell phone usage illegal while driving, and Nissan is hoping this device can help avoid any other unnecessary cases of distracted driving. When describing the development of the Signal Shield, a Nissan spokesman stated that, “Nissan is always looking at new ways of improving the safety and well-being of our customers.”

–

If you are looking for exceptional safety standards, you can’t go wrong with a new or used car from Cardinale Nissan. From the brand new Nissan Altima to the redesigned Nissan Leaf, it’s easy to save money at www.cardinalenissan.com.

Visit Homes Of Famous Authors Around Monterey – Steinbeck House

Posted in Uncategorized

Steinbeck House

Monterey county is home to many historic locations and residences, many of which have been called “home” by famous people. The beautiful scenery of the bountiful valley has inspired several writers, who have described everything from the hard-working locals to the glistening sea. At Cardinale Nissan, we are proud to be a part of this community that has fostered such incredible works of art. Here are some of our favorite historic homes in Monterey, which you can easily get to in a new or used Nissan Altima.

–

Cannery Row

John Steinbeck is one of America’s best known authors, and has received critical acclaim for his fictional stories of life in the West. He was born about 30 miles from #CanneryRow, and spent most of his life in Pacific Grove. Here he gathered writing material for his novels by observing the fish packing plant and the surrounding bordellos and flophouses, and immortalized this street in his fittingly named book, Cannery Row. He also made friends with Ed Ricketts, a marine biologist at the Biological Laboratory and primary inspiration for the character “Doc.” Cannery Row largely consists of museums today, and you can learn more about the historical plant and its operations on a guided tour.

–

Stevenson House

The Stevenson House was named for legendary author Robert Louis Stevenson, who stayed in this shelter in 1878. This two-story home acted as a refuge for families, artists and workers back in the Mexican era, and it was here that Stevenson met his future wife. During his stay, he also penned one of his early works, Old Pacific Capital, and nowadays the Robert Louis Stevenson Club of Monterey keeps this old home open for tours.

There are plenty of Monterey car dealerships, but the only place to find exceptional deals on both new and used Nissan models is Cardinale Nissan. Our unbeatable prices and focus on customer satisfaction means buying a car from us is easy, so visit us in store or online at www.cardinalenissan.com.
