Keep Your Car Safe With Zubie

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zubie. All opinions are 100% mine.

Honestly I am terrible when it comes to car maintanence.  I remember with my very first car I wrote everything down and kept notes, but then I slowly started slipping.  With my current car, I really don't even think of getting anything fixed or checked until my dashboard alerts me.  I always thought how nice it would be to be alerted or reminded ahead of time.  I mean owning a car is stressful enough and with three kids I am all about simplifying where I can.  

Well now there is a gadget that can help you monitor your vehicles, diagnose repair problems and take the hassle out of daily driving.  Zubie is a device the size of a matchbox that plugs into a standard port in every car.  Along with a smartphone app via iPhone or Android, users can diagnose their cars!

Some features:

• Family Safety:  Real-time location tracking on the vehicle
• Problem Alerts:  Be alerted of problems such as Check Engine light or a dying battery
• Safe Driving:  Track and improve your driving and connect and compete with friends.  Great for monitoring teen drivers.
• Trip Coordination:  Connect with friends to share locations and simplify coordination.

With Zubie being compatible with most cars dated 1996 or later, it really is a gadget to think about.  Did you know that 52% of car breakdowns are battery related?  With this easy-to-install device, your car can not alert you on problems and keep you informed on the car's health.  

Problems it can alert you too:

• Engine Problems:  Problem codes reported by your engine
• Check Engine Light:  Get an understanding of why your light is on
• Dead Battery:  Track battery levels and be alerted BEFORE a dead battery leaves you stranded
• Repair Cost & Insight:  Know how serious a problem might be and receive an estimate of likely costs before you go to the repair shop
• Driving Behavior:  Manage your driving habits to improve fuel economy and preserve overall car value over time.

I will be checking out a Zubie in the weeks to come and I am honestly super excited!  I need all the help I can get and I am looking forward to saving some money on repair costs and knowing problems ahead of time!
