It’s almost the Fourth of July, and many folks are heading out for a long weekend. A few things you can do to keep the car happy are:
* Get an oil change! If you have more than 90,000 miles on the vehicle, consider the High Mileage oil.
* Have the radiator flushed. This is something that people overlook, but it’s a good thing to do every 2-3 years.
* Check the tire pressure! Make sure that the tires are properly inflated. This will help with your fuel economy as well.
* Check all of the lights and make sure that they work. If you replace headlamps, go ahead and replace both of them. They usually come in pairs anyway.
* Keep up with the regularly scheduled maintenance stuff as listed in the vehicle’s manual. You don’t always have to have the dealer perform such services. Check around for a local mechanic.
Simple car maintenance can help keep your vehicle running smoothly and can keep your car safe for you and your family, and that can save you some cash in the long run.
