Spring Vehicle Maintenance Tips in Orleans, ON
With spring now in full swing, it’s time to rid your car of any winter wear and get it ready for riveting, reliable, and enjoyable spring drives. If you’re looking to prepare your vehicle for spring, find out how we can help with the following maintenance tips and contact Orleans Dodge to reserve your next service appointment in Orleans, ON.
Firstly, if you’ve driven through the entire winter, your vehicle has likely been stained with salt, slush, and more, and we suggest beginning your spring vehicle maintenance with a thorough wash and cleaning both inside and out. We can even treat your vehicle to a meticulous exterior and interior detailing, which will help restore your car’s cabin materials and rid your paint and bodywork of any salt stains that can cause corrosion. Once temperatures have risen above 7 degrees, it’s time to swap out your winter tires for all-seasons, which perform better in warmer weather. Next come your vehicle’s vital fluids, beginning with your motor oil, and we recommend having your oil, brake fluid, coolant, and transmission fluids checked and changed during your next appointment at our Service Centre. Your windshield wipers have also seen a lot of action through the winter season, and if they begin making a squeaking sound or struggle to make their way across your windshield, it’s time to get them changed, so you can maintain visibility at the wheel if ever you’re caught in a spring storm.
