Keep Your Car Breathing Easy in Concord, NH: The Importance of a Clean Engine Air Filter Your vehicle’s engine needs a lot of air to run – in fact, it takes about twelve thousand gallons of air to burn a single gallon of gas. All that air has to be clean for efficient combustion, which is why the engine air filter is so crucial. If your air filter is clogged with dirt and dust, it can’t trap any more particles. The excess dust will bypass the filter and get sucked into your engine’s intake and combustion chamber. Burning dirt and pollen inside your engine does no good (and can even cause wear or damage), not to mention it chokes off the air your engine needs. A clogged air filter can hurt your car’s performance and fuel economy – replacing a dirty filter can improve gas mileage by as much as 10%. In short, a clean air filter helps your engine “breathe” properly, run smoo ... read more

NH Budget Bill Eliminates Vehicle Inspections: How does this impact you! The recent passage of New Hampshire's state budget bill has brought a controversial change: the repeal of mandatory vehicle safety inspections. As of January 30, 2026, annual inspections will no longer be required for most vehicles in the state. While some may celebrate this as a step toward reducing red tape, we at Accomplished Auto believe this decision poses serious risks to public safety, financial stability, and environmental health. This shift is not a panacea. It removes a structured, professional safety check and replaces it with a hope that vehicle owners will self-regulate. It also places more responsibility on police officers, who must now identify unsafe vehicles during routine traffic stops, without the specialized tools or knowledge of trained mechanics. It is important to understand that this repeal does not eliminate any of the existing safety or emi ... read more

Navigating Warranties, Recalls, and Insurance Work at Accomplished Auto At Accomplished Auto, we often get asked a very common question: "Do you handle warranty work, recalls, or insurance claims?" The answer is both simple and complicated, so we wanted to take a moment to explain how it works. Manufacturer Warranties and Recalls If your vehicle is still covered under the factory warranty or you've received a recall notice, the work typically needs to be done at the dealer. The reason for this is simple: we have no easy way to get reimbursed by the manufacturer for these repairs. However, that doesn't mean we can't help you in other ways. Before you make that sometimes lengthy appointment at the dealership, it's often a good idea to bring your vehicle to us first. We can diagnose the issue and determine whether it might be covered by a manufacturer recall, warranty, or even a technical service bulletin (TSB). TSBs are issued by manufacture ... read more
