Keep reading to learn some tips that will help keep your GMC SUV or truck in top condition this season.
Check Your Fluids
Fluid levels can fluctuate in your vehicle throughout the year due to temperature changes. Be sure to check all fluid levels, including engine oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, washer fluid, and coolant. Top off any fluids that are low.
Inspect Your Tires
The tread on your tires wears down as you commute to and from Greenfield, WI. Inspect them for uneven or abnormal wear and check that tread depth is sufficient. Rotate and balance them if needed. Also, check tire pressures and inflate them to the recommended PSI level. Proper inflation promotes better fuel economy and extends tire life.
Replace Wiper Blades
Wiper blades get worn down from exposure to the elements. Replace them if they leave streaks or miss spots when used. High-quality wiper blades provide maximum visibility to keep you safe in wet weather conditions around Glendale, WI.
Check Brakes
Brake system components, like pads, rotors, and calipers, wear out over time. Have a technician inspect your brakes and recommend when replacement is necessary. Addressing brake issues improves stopping power and prevents further damage.
Inspect Belts & Hoses
Engine belts and hoses deteriorate from heat, cold, and exposure. Visually check them for cracks, fraying, and leaks. Have worn parts replaced to avoid breakdowns.
Change Your Cabin Air Filter
A dirty cabin air filter allows pollutants into your vehicle's interior. Replace it to improve air quality inside the cabin.
Wash & Wax
Give your GMC a thorough cleaning inside and out. Wash off salt, dirt, and grime, then apply a fresh coat of wax to protect the paint. A clean vehicle is nicer to drive around Wauwatosa and makes a good impression.
