As warm weather approaches, the Don Rich Ford Co Ford team would like to remind you that now's the time to start thinking about spring vehicle maintenance. Car care requires constant dedication, but some services should receive special attention this time of year. Winter driving can be tough on a vehicle, and scheduling a spring service will help ensure your vehicle is in prime condition for the upcoming summer around Douglasville, GA.
Oil and Filter Change
You don't want to fall behind on regular oil changes because fresh oil is required for optimal engine performance. A winter driving around Dallas, GA, has likely caused your vehicle's oil to become less viscous and filled with impurities. Your engine needs clean oil and a new filter to perform its best.
Tire Check
Cold temperatures can cause your tire pressure to deflate quite rapidly, so it's particularly important to check for proper inflation in the spring. Driving on under-inflated inflated tires can negatively affect performance and handling. You'll also want to look at your tires' tread. Driving across Carrollton, GA, area roads on balding tires is dangerous. We can install a new set for maximum safety as you prepare for warm-weather activities and weekend road trips.
Battery Testing
Frigid weather also zaps car battery power. A quick diagnostic test is all you need to ensure your battery will last you throughout the next season.
Wiper Blade Replacement
A spring maintenance task you may have yet to consider is windshield wiper replacement. You'll need fresh wiper blades to be able to see clearly in spring showers and bright summer sun.
