End of Summer Car Care Tips
Summer is coming to and end and that means it is time to consider getting your car ready for the cooler months ahead. Below are a few tips for how you can get your vehicle ready for the next season!
Tires: Proper tire pressure is crucial for maintaining your traction on the road, your vehicle’s stability, and can have a drastic effect on your fuel economy. For every 10-degree change in temperature, your tires will gain or lose 1 PSI. We suggest regularly checking your PSI.
Battery: Summer heat can make your battery’s fluid evaporate faster. Without the proper fluid, your battery can start to corrode, ultimately making it incapable of holding a charge. We suggest having your battery inspected by a qualified technician.
Examine your windshield wipers: These guys are the unsung heroes of winter driving. You will need your wipers to work properly so that they are able to battle flurries and provide you with a clear view of the road ahead.
Air Conditioner and Heat Check-Up: After how hot this summer was, your car worked extra hard to keep you cool while you drove. If anything is wrong with your car’s air conditioner, it is not wise to wait until spring to get the issue corrected. Be prepared for cooler months by ensuring the heat works. Pick a cool morning to test the heat, and if you have problems, get them checked out immediately.
