Summer Checklist for Your Vehicle

Nothing ruins a beautiful summer day more than car problems. Here’s a checklist to make sure your vehicle conquers the long, hot days of summer.

 

Check the Battery
Extreme heat can drain battery life. Make sure to test your battery and replace if necessary.

Oil Change

Make sure your oil and oil filter are properly changed at your recommended intervals.

Check Air Filter

Replace if dirty or clogged.

Check the Coolant

Make sure your coolant level is full and clear of contaminates.

Fill Wiper Fluid

Top off your wiper fluid to make sure you are ready to clear your windshield of any dirt, bugs, or other contaminates.

Replace the Wiper Blades
Make sure your wiper blades are up to snuff and ready for action.

Tires 

Rotate your tires and fill them to proper pressure levels. Replace them if the tread is worn out.

Inspect Your Belts and Hoses

Look for cracks, fraying, leakage or swelling. Replace if you find any of these signs.

Lights  

Inspect all lights and bulbs and replace if necessary. Clean off all dirt and insects from all lenses.

Clean Windows

Clean the inside and outside of all your car windows to make sure nothing impairs your view from the driver’s seat.
