Annual Summer Maintenance Checklist



Summertime is here!  Small children are parading the streets with a sense of pride and enjoyment, parents are scrambling to avoid the heat by hibernating near air-conditions and consumers nationwide are looking forward to the faint smell of charred BBQ.  This summer, we’re running down our checklist of car maintenance tips for our customers.  In today’s blog, you’ll find a quick list of services we can provide that will help you maintain the life of your vehicle and ensure a smooth summer this year. 

Radiator Flush – Coolant is important to your radiator and should be replaced accordingly. 

Replace Air Filter – This should be replaced twice a year.  It only takes us a few to complete the change.

Tire Check – summer traveling IS the rainy season.  Try and make sure that your tires are up to snuff.  Ask us about the tire pressure and we can provide a thorough breakdown.

Replace Wipers – When’s the last time you replaced your wipers? This is important for wavering summer rain.

Inspect Your Brakes - It's a good idea to inspect your brakes twice a year just to be sure everything is up t snuff. Car safety should always be a top priority. Go ahead and check your brake fluid while you're at it.

Check Your Battery – Corrosion buildup can happen quickly.  Check your battery posts and cables to ensure you’ll have no starting problems.

Come in today for a maintenance check and we’ll be happy to help!!!
