Improve the Visibility when you Drive

When you drive, the most important thing is the visibility you have. Make sure the windshield is clean and clear. If you notice a divot or crack on it, this should be repaired as soon as possible. Over time, the crack can spread and the whole windshield may need to be replaced then. Also check the side windows and rear window to ensure you have visibility all around your vehicle. The windshield wipers will also need to be inspected. If there are rips, cracks, or any other sign of damage, the windshield wipers should be replaced. They are important because they help remove dirt and road grime from the windshield. If you are not sure if the windshield wipers need to be replaced, bring the vehicle in and we can inspect them for you.

Oil Changes are Needed for the Vehicle

The oil is an important fluid for your vehicle. This is because the oil will lubricate the engine and moving parts of the vehicle. Without the oil, the engine can seize up and damage can be done to it. If you are not sure how often an oil change should be done, make sure to contact us. We can advise you on how often your vehicle should have an oil change. This will help keep fresh clean oil in your vehicle. The oil filter will also be inspected to ensure it is not clogged with dirt or other contaminants.

Check the Spare Tire for the Vehicle

A part of the vehicle that is often overlooked is the spare tire. The spare tire will have to be used in the case of a regular tire going flat or being damaged. The spare tire should be inspected for the correct amount of air pressure. It should also be inspected to ensure it is in a usable condition. This way you can be prepared for any situation.
