Prepare Your Vehicle for Summer Driving

As summer moves into Colorado, it’s time to prepare your vehicle for the heat. It’s always a good idea to take care of your car so it’s safe and cool on the road. Our service center is stocked with high-tech tools and equipment, and our factory-trained and ASE-certified technicians know how to repair and maintain the new and used vehicles on our lot. Our goal is to make your vehicle ownership experience stress-free and convenient.

Stay Cool in Your Vehicle

At the car service center near Manassa, Colorado, our service technicians can inspect and maintain your vehicle’s air conditioning system. We invite you to schedule an inspection so our technicians can check your cooling system, radiator, and coolant. Taking care of these vehicle components will keep your vehicle cool on the inside and prevent overheating when the temperatures skyrocket in the summer months.

We also recommend checking your hoses and belts to look for fraying and tearing. In the heat, these vital engine components can break and leave you stranded on the side of the road. At every appointment, our technicians conduct a multi-point inspection that includes checking engine filters and cabin filters. When checking the coolant, we recommend replacing the cabin filter to keep the air fresh and clean for you and your passengers.

Our technicians can also take care of your routine oil and filter change to keep your gas mileage up in the summer. Keeping your engine properly lubricated helps maintain drive quality on your epic summer road trips.

Tips for Safe Summer Road Trips

Our summer car maintenance tips also include taking care of important safety features. When you bring your vehicle to our service center, our technicians can check your brakes to look for wear and tear on the pads, rotors, and calipers. They can also check your brake fluid and tire pressure.

We also recommend checking your windshield wipers and changing them if they are worn out. Along with your brakes, your wiper blades keep you safe by providing visibility on the road.

Another important safety tip involves checking your battery. Vehicles with 50,000 miles or more often need new batteries, and no one wants to be left on the side of the road or in their garage with a battery that won’t start the engine. Battery inspections involve checking its remaining life, the terminals, and housing. Our technicians will remove corrosion and check the alternator before recommending a new battery.
