Did You Know?
Child Seat Safety

  • A properly installed child safety seat can reduce the risk of serious injury or death by as much as 75%.
  • Car crashes are the number one cause of death for Canadian children.
  • Over 80% of child safety seats are not used properly. Common errors include not tightening the seat belt and harness enough, and not properly using a tether strap when required.
Make sure your child is safe and secure, and is buckled up right. Children under 13 years of age are safest in the back seat away from all active air bags.By law, drivers are responsible for ensuring passengers under 16 years of age are secured properly. It is mandatory for anyone transporting children to make sure they are properly secured in a child car seat, booster seat or seat belt. This applies to all caregivers, from babysitters to grandparents. Failing to do so may result in a $110.00 fine, plus two demerit points

Sil’s Auto and Ontario Racquet Club Working To Care for You!

by silsautocom on March 8, 2010

 I started thinking some time ago that we spend so much time on maintaining the health, longevity and care of a person’s vehicle, why don’t we try to help do so with the vehicle owner too? Sils has teamed up with the Ontario Racquet Club in a effort to maintain your vehicle and maintain your body.

When it comes to cars, we know that neglecting routine maintenance eventually catches up with you and it becomes costlier to correct problems down the road. Like that “check engine” light that’s been on for who knows how long because you’ve ignored it, when a year later it builds from one undiagnosed problem to maybe 2 or more that your didn’t even realize until it was too late or led up to your drive clean failure.

So too is the human body, might poor eating, lack of exercise and stress in our daily lives slowly accumulate. Today I feel fine, strong, with lots of energy what’s the big deal if I live a fast food lifestyle. This sedentary lifestyle will catch up with a lack of energy, strength, vitality and perhaps medical issues start coming out of the wood work that could have been controlled with proper maintenance and care (diet and exercise).

We know we can replace parts on a car when they are old and worn out, but you can’t replace all body parts so easily when they’re worn out.

The ORC is providing a special promotion to Sil’s Complete Auto Care Centre clients for One Complimentary week trial pass including a 20 minute training session / fitness orientation along with a $35.00 discount on enrollment and 35 days free with annual membership.

If you’re interested in maintaining your body in addition  to maintaining your car pass by and pick up our special ORC offer or call us to email you it.
