Check the lights and wipers | Seeing and being seen is key to safe driving. Check your vehicle on a daily basis to make sure all the lights are working properly. Test your vehicle’s wipers at least once per month to ensure they quickly and effectivity clean your windshield. Replace both as needed.
Check the hoses and belts | Cracked, frayed, or loose hoses left unchecked can lead to expensive repairs. Hoses and belts showing signs of excessive wear should be immediately replaced. If you notice a hose or belt needs replacing, call your local mechanic as soon as possible.
Check the tires | Tires endure a lot of wear and tear on a daily basis and they are also one of the most important parts of a vehicle. Check tire pressure and tread at least on a weekly basis to make sure your tires are fully inflated and free from blemishes or puncture holes. Uneven wear points to a much-needed wheel alignment. Keeping tires inflated improves efficiency and performance.
Check all the fluids | Strange noises or strained performance are often an indication of low fluid levels. Check your vehicle’s engine oil, brake and transmission, power steering, windshield washer solvent, and antifreeze/coolant. Fluids should be checked at every gas refill.
