April showers bring May flowers, and may flowers cause allergy flare-ups. King Kia knows how hard it can be to enjoy beautiful spring drives when you’re suffering from allergy symptoms. So, we’ve come up with a guide of several ways to help allergy proof your vehicle. Read our tips listed below and get your ride spring ready! Oh, and if you don’t have the time or tools to follow along with some of our tips, you can schedule a service with our quick and efficient service professionals at King Kia in Gaithersburg, MD. We’ll thoroughly prep every inch of your vehicle for the season ahead and help you enjoy your rides in comfort.     

King Kia’s Guide to Allergy Proofing Your Vehicle: 

Wash Your Vehicle (Inside & Out)

  • Wipe down your dashboard, steering wheel, controls, door handles, trim, and windows with a car safe cleaner to rid your cabin of any allergens. Rinsing off the air pollen that may have clung to the exterior of your vehicle can prevent it from being swept into your cabin. 

Replace The Cabin Air Filters

  • Your old filters could be dirty and clogged and no longer do a good job of sifting out contaminants from the air being pumped into your cabin. Your filter should be replaced at least twice a year. 

Vacuum Frequently

  • Frequently vacuum the carpets, mats, and seats to help remove all the dirt, pollen, and other allergens you may have tracked in. 

Replace Cloth Mats With Rubber Ones

  • Rubber or plastic floor mats don’t hold moisture and house molds and mildews like the fabric ones do and rubber/plastic is much easier to rinse clean.  

Keep Pets Secure

  • If traveling with your pet, you should always secure them in a carrier. It is the safest way for them to travel and has the added bonus of containing some of the fur and dander they may be shedding.

The effects of winter weather on our roads becomes pretty apparent on those bumpy rides in the spring. But, some “bumps” are more serious than others. Potholes are usually caused through the expansions and contraction of groundwater. Water will seep into the cracks in the pavement, freeze and expand in the winter, and then thaw and leave gaps and voids in the pavement for more water to seep into and start the process all over again. Over time the structural integrity of the road is weakened and large chunks of pavement can become loose or displaced and potholes will form. Potholes come in various shapes and sizes and usually drivers only really avoid the big ones, but King Kia is here to tell you potholes are dangerous to drivers no matter their size. Below are some of the ways in which potholes can damage your vehicle. If you’re worried about the effects of your recent bumpy rides on your car, schedule a service appointment at the King Kia service center and our certified professionals will make sure your car is road ready. 

The Effects Of Potholes On Your Car:

Wheel Misalignment

  • This can happen when you hit one big pothole or overtime if you regularly drive on rough roads. Misalignment makes it harder to drive a straight course, puts undue stress on your suspension system, and impacts the lifespan of your tires as well. 

Shot Suspension System

  • This system works to reduce the effects of driving over uneven or bumpy roads on your cabin and other driving components. It can get worn down over time or if abused by large sudden dips and make for unsafe driving conditions. 

Wheel and Rim Damage

  • When your wheels come into contact with deep or jagged-edged potholes, rims can be dented and tires can get punctured or even blown out.

Don’t let Spring showers rain on your parade! Come into King Kia to get your Kia ready for the rainy roads in the months to come! Our Kia service professionals are quick and dependable and now through the end of the month, King Kia is offering several exciting service specials!

King Kia knows that it feels like all you do everyday is go, go, go. But, what happens when you need to stop? When was the last time you had your braking system checked? Brakes wear out gradually, so you may not notice if your ability to slow or stop begins to decline. Listed below are a few indicators that it’s time to give you brakes a break and get them checked out. And you can do so with King Kia’s diligently trained experts! We offer top notch car and truck brake repair at affordable prices at our facility here in Gaithersburg, MD. Your safety is our first priority. Make a service appointment with a King Kia maintenance professional today! 

Signs That You Need New Brakes:

  • You hear a squealing noise when you brake. 
    • Most brake pads are manufactured with wear indicators. These metal tabs along the top of your brake pads will scrape against the rotors when the pads are worn down to a dangerous level; creating an awful noise as a result. 
  • Your car is taking longer to come to a complete stop.
    • When your brake pads make contact with your rotor for extended periods of time, both components heat up and become worn, decreasing their ability to generate the friction needed to bring your car to a full stop in a timely manner.
  • Your car is pulling to one side when you brake.
    • This could indicate that the brake pads on one side of your vehicle are more worn out than the pads on the other side. This will cause your car to pull in one direction when stopping and puts stress on your steering rack. 
  • Your brakes vibrate or stutter when pressed.
    • This issue arises when the binding resin holding the brake pads together is smeared across the rotor due to excessive heat and pad wear down. It is known as “glazing” and can be very dangerous if unchecked.

It hasn’t escaped King Kia’s notice that gas prices are on the rise yet again. Luckily, it’s never been a better time to switch to our Kia Niro EV.
