As Old Man Winter’s grip finally comes to an end, spring is a great time to give your vehicle a little TLC for and ready for the road trips of summer. April is national Car Care Month and a reminder to keep your vehicle regularly maintained for safety.
The freezing temperatures and salty, sandy roads of winter are hard on our vehicles. Salt is very erosive to your vehicle’s undercarriage and can cause rust, build-up, and other potentially serious problems.
In addition, people tend to wait until something goes wrong to take their car into the shop during winter, making that spring car care visit all the more important. The following are some areas that should be checked during this important vehicle service month:
Levels.
Wiper Blades.
Lights.
Battery.
Air Filter.
Engine Hoses.
Tires.
Brakes.
Keeping a regular service schedule is important for the safety of you and your passengers and for the overall life of your vehicle. Remember the best time to find a mechanic is before you need one.
A properly maintained vehicle can help to avoid accidents before they happen.
If you have been in a car accident in Los Angeles, Long Beach or any area of Southern California caused by the negligence of others, it’s advised to seek the guidance of a legal professional to evaluate your case.
