Your Summer Journey Check List:
1. Check Fluids. These include engine oil, power steering and transmission fluids, windshield washer fluid and antifreeze/coolant.
2. Inspect Belts and Hoses. A faulty belt can affect the electrical system, air conditioning, power steering and the cooling system.
3. Check Tires. Check tire pressure when your tires are cool to ensure an accurate reading.
Tread may wear unevenly, indicating the need for a wheel alignment. Bulge and bald spots can lead to a blow out.
4. Check the Lights, Battery, and Brakes. All crucial elements that you wouldn’t want to fail when on the road.
5. Finally, consider purchasing a GPS navigation system,
Emergency Road Kit, Jumper Cables, and plenty of road snacks to make your journey safe and enjoyable!
