Spring into Safety: Your Essential Tire and Auto Care Checklist

Posted in Seasonal Safety Tips

After a long winter of snow, ice, and potholes, your vehicle deserves a little extra attention. Spring is the perfect time to refresh your ride — and ensure you’re ready for everything the warmer months bring.

We’re here to make spring car care simple and stress-free. Here’s what should be on your spring checklist:

1. Inspect Your Tires

Winter driving can take a serious toll on your tires. Look for:

  • Tread wear: Ensure you have enough tread for safe traction.

  • Cracks and bulges: Cold temperatures can cause rubber to degrade.

  • Proper inflation: Temperature changes cause air pressure to fluctuate.

2. Rotate and Balance Your Tires

To maximize the life of your tires and improve your car’s handling, spring is the ideal time for a tire rotation and balancing service. This helps distribute wear evenly and prevents vibrations on the road.

3. Check Your Alignment

Winter potholes and rough roads can knock your wheels out of alignment, leading to uneven tire wear and poor fuel economy. A quick alignment check ensures your vehicle drives straight and true.

4. Replace Wiper Blades

April showers are no match for fresh wiper blades! After months of scraping ice, it’s likely time for a new set to keep your windshield clear and safe.

5. Top Off Fluids and Check the Battery

Cold weather strains batteries and depletes essential fluids. We’ll inspect your battery, coolant, oil, and brake fluid to keep your car running smoothly all season long.
