your car for long road trips. Whether it is to the Grand Canyon, or right
around the corner to Grandmas and Grandpas house, it is important to ensure
safety in such beautiful, but barren landscapes. Here are some tips to
think about to make sure your trip is stress free and safe for your most
precious cargo... your family!
Oil Change: A trip to the local repair shop is a must! Take advantage of the upgrade
that provides belt and filter inspection.
Replace Windshield Wipers: Full service mechanic shops can switch these out for you.
Tire Check: Don't forget about rotating your tires, checking air pressure and
making any necessary repairs.
Spare Tire: You should always have a functional spare tire ready for emergency use.
Forgetting to check the air in the spare tire prior to your trip could
be disastrous. It is important to have the proper equipment on hand so
that you can swap out the tire.
Brake Check: It is recommended that your brakes are inspected twice a year to ensure
they are working efficiently.
Cooling System Check: In the warm weather, it is a good idea to keep a gallon of water or coolant
in your vehicle in case temperatures exceed what your car can handle.
Radiator Check: Schedule an appointment today to have your radiator serviced.
