Get To Cleaning Your Ride! Spring Is Here!
Apr 16, 2019
It’s National Car Care Month and that means April is really the time to get it together and start paying a little attention to your vehicle. Whether your vehicle’s needs are big or small, your ride can always benefit from a little TLC. And while it’s National Car Care Month – we want you to take our top ten items listed below and make sure they are all in proper working condition. So, are you willing to go the distance for your vehicle? We hope so! Check out our guide below and stop in to see us for your service appointment!
Things To Check Up On:
- Check on all of your vehicle’s fluids. Engine oil, brake fluid, windshield washer fluid, power steering fluid, and others alike. If these fluids look dirty, be sure to swap them out or let a professional do it.
- Be sure to check on the hoses and belts under the hood of your vehicle. Check for cracking, bulging, and excessive wear and tear.
- Take a look at your battery, make sure it has tight connections, is corrosive free, and ready to take you the distance this summer.
- If you haven’t had an oil change recently, check up on your brake linings, rotors and drums.
- Hearing noises? It might be your exhaust system. Check for damage or leakage.
- Want great fuel economy and low-level emissions? Schedule an engine tune-up!
- Temperatures are on the rise – give your HVAC system a look over and have it serviced if you think your system is having issues.
- Fill up your tires to the proper PSI levels and check your tread levels. Look for uneven tread wear or excessive wear and tear.
- Your lighting is a vital component in your vehicle. Be sure to check over all the lighting fixtures and ensure that bulbs are in proper working condition. If your headlights look foggy, try reconditioning them first.
- Don’t forget about your windshield wipers. April is known for heavy rain showers. Don’t be caught in the rain with old, worn out wipers!
