Tips to Get Your Car Ready

Vehicle fall care starts in your garage. Before you head out, it’s always better to check your car’s essential components to ensure they’re properly working and not compromised.

When the cold weather sets in during fall, it’s important to do a major checkup, allowing you to check if your car is equipped with the proper gear to withstand potential heavy winds, ice, extreme temperatures, and other obstacles on the road.

• Check the tires to ensure the proper tire pressure, tread depth, and balance. Make sure no visible wear and tear are showing on your tread. To avoid accidents on slippery roads, your tires must always be in great condition.
• Check your brakes to ensure you can stop anytime, even on icy roads.
• Check your vehicle’s brake fluids and washer fluids, engine oil, and more to ensure correct fluid levels.
• Check the battery.
• Inspect your car’s brake lights, heating and cooling systems, wiper blades, fog lamps, mirrors, engine, and other parts to determine whether they need replacement or repair.
• Consult your owner’s manual to find additional recommended maintenance from the manufacturer.
