The summer is quickly coming to an end, there I said it. I know, I know you are sad that your nights by the pool and weekends at the lake or the beach will soon be a thing of the past. But, it is important to get your Kia in tip-top shape for the upcoming seasons. We have compiled a list of fall car care tips to make it easier to decide which services are the most important for you to perform before temperatures begin to drop. Check them out below!

 

  • Have your battery tested to be sure that it is in good health. Extreme temperatures can do a lot of damage to your battery and can leave you stranded if you’re power up.
  • Check the tread and PSI of your tires.
  • Brake fluid and your brake pads should be in good shape. If you’re having difficulty stopping or hear any squeaking, consult a technician as soon as possible.
  • Check all fluids to ensure they are reading at proper levels. If not, fill them up or schedule an appointment and our technicians will top off your fluids!
  • Your HVAC system should be checked before seasons are changing especially if heating or cooling in your vehicle has been a problem in the past. This system is critical for a number of safety reasons and you should never fool around with it.
  • Show your lights a little TLC. Whether you are swapping out bulbs or replacing a dimming headlight altogether, give your head and taillights the proper attention. Especially in fall months.
  • Fill up your windshield washer fluid reservoir with a cold-weather washer fluid that won’t freeze your windshield if cold temperatures sneak up.
  • Making your vehicle’s health a top priority will better your gas mileage by an average of four percent.
