WILMINGTON, DE, May 13, 2023 - As temperatures rise, drivers should pay extra attention to their vehicle's maintenance to ensure optimal performance and avoid costly repairs. ACE Auto Protect offers expert advice on how to keep your vehicle running smoothly throughout the summer months.
Regular vehicle maintenance is critical during the summer months. The heat can take a toll on a car's battery, tires, and other components, and neglecting routine maintenance can lead to breakdowns and expensive repairs.
To help drivers keep their vehicles in top shape, ACE Auto Protect recommends the following tips:
Check tire pressure regularly: The hot weather can cause tires to expand, leading to over inflation. This can result in poor handling, reduced fuel efficiency, and increased risk of blowouts. Check tire pressure at least once a month and inflate to the recommended level.
Check and replace fluids: Engine oil, transmission fluid, and coolant are essential for your car's performance. Check the levels regularly and replace fluids as needed. Overheating can cause engine damage, and low fluid levels can cause serious problems.
Inspect the battery: High temperatures can cause battery fluid to evaporate, leading to corrosion and reduced performance. Inspect the battery regularly, ensure that the terminals are clean, and consider replacing the battery if it's a few years old.
Check the air conditioning system: A properly functioning air conditioning system is critical for your comfort and safety during hot summer days. Have the system inspected and serviced by a professional to ensure it's working correctly.
By following these tips, drivers can ensure their vehicles are running smoothly and avoid costly repairs.
