With cooler temperatures coming, it’s a good time to give your vehicle a little extra attention. Fall brings new driving conditions, from rainy Texas roads to shorter days, and a few simple checks can help you stay safe and avoid expensive repairs. At Bolton Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we’ve put together some easy fall car care tips to help drivers in Port Arthur, Beaumont, Orange, Baytown, Lake Charles, Sulphur, and beyond get ready for the season.
Fall Car Care Tips:
Check Your Tires: Cooler weather can cause tire pressure to drop, which affects handling and fuel efficiency. Make sure your tires are correctly inflated and have enough tread for wet Texas roads.
Test Your Battery: Cold starts can be tough on your battery. If it’s been a while since your last check, now’s a good time to make sure it’s holding a charge.
Replace Wiper Blades: Fall often brings more rain and debris. New wiper blades improve visibility and make driving safer.
Inspect Your Lights: With days getting shorter, working headlights, brake lights, and turn signals are more important than ever. Replace any dim or burned-out bulbs.
Top Off Fluids: Check your oil, coolant, and windshield washer fluid. These are quick checks that can help your vehicle run smoothly as temperatures start to drop.
