With winters officially over in most parts of the country, it is time to come out of the hibernation and plan some adventurous or fun activities to enjoy the sunshine. For many people, this means going for camping or on road trips on the weekends, with their family and friends.
No matter what you are planning for to enjoy the warm weather, if it requires you to hit the road, then getting your car inspected and serviced should be at the top of your to-do list. This is because the cold temperature isn’t only hard on many people, it can also affect your vehicle.
According to automotive experts, spring is the time to get your car inspected and serviced to repair the damages the cold winter weather had caused and the lingering issues before they become huge. A simple car service can also help maintain your car in good shape throughout the year.
Here’s a basic spring car maintenance checklist to keep your vehicle running safely and efficiently through spring and summer:

· Check and Top up Fluids
This is a no-brainer. Checking the levels of all fluids in your car to make sure they are up to the required levels is one of the most basic requirements for ensuring the smooth functioning of a vehicle. In addition to checking the fluid levels, make sure there is no dirt accumulated on any of the parts and the fluids are not breaking down or leaking. Make sure to check and top up, if needed, the engine oil and battery water to avoid any roadside emergency.
In case, you run out of engine oil or fuel or the battery of your car gives up, call for a reliable roadside assistance service, such as KJR Towing, LLC in Gilbert, AZ

· Check the Air Pressure in Tires
Several environmental factors, such as changes in temperatures and storms, can cause a change in the air pressure in tires of your vehicle. The air pressure in tires can also reduce if the car hasn’t been used for a while. Driving with low tire air pressure can get you in trouble.
While you can always call a towing service to get emergency tire assistance in case your tire(s) get flat on the road, it is always better to ensure that your tires are properly inflated and you have the spare wheel before you hit the road.

· Check the Coolant System
Overheated engines are one of the most common causes of car breakdowns during summers. This is why it is wise to get the coolant system of your car checked and make sure it is performing well before you go on a road trip.
In addition to these, it is also important to ensure that your car’s HVAC system is performing right, the parts of the chassis have enough lubrication and the battery is not wearing out.

Summary

According to automotive experts, spring is the time to get your car inspected and serviced to repair the damages the cold winter weather had caused and the lingering issues before they become huge. A simple car service can also help maintain your car in good shape throughout the year.
