Prepare Your Vehicle For Summer Road Trips!

Summer is the perfect time for a road trip!!!!!!!!! The weather is warm, school is out, and the open road is calling your name. But before you set off on your adventure, it’s important to make sure your car is ready for the journey. Here’s 8 simple things to help you prepare your vehicle for a summer road trip, with a little help from us here at Glenwood Foreign Car.

1. CHECK YOUR TIRES

Your Tires are your car’s only contact with the road. It’s essential they’re in good shape. Make sure your Tires have enough tread and are properly inflated. Look for any signs of damage or uneven wear. Don’t forget to check and pack a spare Tire too!

2.GET YOUR BRAKES INSPECTED!

Do you hear any squeaking  or grinding noises coming from your Brakes?  Is it taking longer for your car to come to a stop? These are signs that it might be  time to have your Brakes checked!

3. TEST OUT YOUR BATTERY

Hot weather can be tough on  your vehicle’s Battery. Make sure your battery is in good condition and has a strong charge!

4. CHANGE THE OIL

Regular Oil Changes keep your engine running smoothly. Check your oil level and condition. If it’s dirty or low, it’s time for a change!

5. TOP OFF FLUIDS

Check all your car’s fluids, including Coolant, Brake Fluid, Transmission Fluid, and Windshield Washer Fluid. Keeping these at the right levels helps your vehicle run efficiently and prevents breakdowns!

6.  INSPECT THE COOLING SYSTEM

A properly functioning Cooling System is essential to prevent your car from overheating. Make sure the Radiator, Coolant, and hoses are in good condition. If you’re unsure, our experts here at Glenwood Foreign Car can do a thorough check for you.
