Everyone needs a little time off every now and then, and Spring break or any extended time off is a perfect time for releasing. Popular choices for these breaks are “staycations” with some extra time to sleep in or an exciting road trip across the country or state. To prepare for any journey, it’s important to get your car ready for the long road ahead. A fast and easy inspection from #CardinaleNissan will make sure your car is in prime travel condition, and here are a couple of car maintenance steps to take before your next adventure.
Car Wash:
While this may seem trivial, a car wash is the most efficient way of cleaning off any sort of dirt and grime that has accumulated on your vehicle. You should wash your car regularly, as buildup can erode your paint and cause damage.
Tire Condition:
As you travel, your tires lose pressure and can slowly be worn down. Too low or high pressure is dangerous and can lead to lower gas mileage or even a puncture, which would definitely put a halt to the road trip excitement. All tires are different so check your owner’s manual or the tire itself for the recommend pressure, and don’t forget about the spare!
Air Quality:
The air filter is critical to ensuring that the air you breathe is clean and free of pollutants. If you live in or plan or travelling through a major city or industrial area, take a few minutes to check if your air filter needs a quick replacement.
Fluid Levels:
Numerous fluids in your car are all responsible for keeping your engine running smoothly and efficiently. Check your owner’s manual for where to find the oil, coolant and other vital liquids, and if you notice that any are low, take it into our service department for a top off.
