Spring Maintenance Checklist for Your Vehicle

As the weather warms up, it is the perfect time to undo the wear that winter puts on your vehicle. A short spring service appointment can prevent expensive problems later.

Start with the tires. Cold temperatures and potholes take a toll, so check the tread depth, look for uneven wear, and confirm the pressure is at spec. If you ran winter tires, now is the time to rotate back to your all-seasons.

Next, give the fluids a once-over. Oil, coolant, brake fluid, and washer fluid should all be topped off, and an oil change is a smart bet if you are due. While you are at it, replace worn wiper blades — spring rain will find every streak.

Finally, wash off the road salt, including the undercarriage, to fight rust. Our service department can handle the whole checklist in one visit so you head into summer worry-free.
