As summer comes to a close, it’s time to look ahead to autumn and all the changes that come with it. Autumn can also bring about new demands for your vehicle. Our Kia service experts at Sansone Kia recommend you complete these tasks to get your vehicle ready.
1. Check Your Engine Oil Level
Routine oil changes are one of the best ways to protect your vehicle, especially your engine. We encourage you to also regularly check your oil level between oil change visits, because it’s important that you maintain the recommended oil level.
2. Wash and Wax Your Vehicle
The hot summer sun can be harsh on your vehicle. We recommend that you give your vehicle a good wash and wax to help protect your paint and exterior coating. While you’re at it, give your cabin a good cleaning as well.
3. Inspect Your Tires
All that summer traveling can also be hard on your tires. Double-check that they are still at the adequate pressure and have a tread depth of at least 4/32-inch. We also recommend rotating your tires, which can help limit uneven wear.
4. Check Your Lights
Get a friend to help you check your vehicle’s headlights, brake lights, and turn signals. The shorter days lead to more post-dusk driving in the fall, so it’s important that your lights are working properly.
5. Replace Your Windshield Wipers
The sun can also make windshield wipers brittle and even cause them to break. Make sure to replace your windshield wipers so that you’ll always have a clear line of sight while driving.
