Three Tips to Autumn-Proof Your Automobile

Three Tips to Autumn-Proof Your Automobile

If you live in a climate that is sunny year-round like Florida, you may think that cold weather tips are not for you. Not so! No matter where you reside, hot or cold, taking care of your automobile for fall and winter is a safe, sensible thing to do.

3 Tips for Autumn-Proofing Your Car

The last thing anyone wants is for your car to suffer a breakdown in the middle of nowhere. With these three preventative steps, you can easily avoid any undue inconvenience, maintain the life of your vehicle, and keep yourself and your loved ones safe on the road.

Here are three tips to autumn-proof your vehicle:

1)               Get regular oil changes – If it’s close to that 30,000 mile full service for your vehicle, go get an oil change. By servicing your car regularly, you are not only keeping the engine running well, you are ensuring the safety of you and your passengers. Be sure to check the owner’s manual for guidance about which type of oil to use in specific temperatures or climates.

2)               Keep your tire pressure adjusted – By having properly inflated tires, no matter what the season, you are ensuring that you have the best possible traction for safe driving. In colder weather, your tire pressure can sometimes drop which is why it’s important to check it regularly.

3)               Prepare a vehicle emergency kit – Whether you are planning on taking a roadtrip or not, it is always a good idea to keep an emergency kit in your vehicle at all times. Some items to include in it are – a blanket, set of dry clothes, a flashlight, ice scraper or small shovel, tool kit, tire-changing equipment, jumper cables, flares, and extra wipers and windshield wiper fluid.

In addition to taking these essential steps, be sure you know the proper techniques for controlling your vehicle in slick conditions. That way, you can keep yourself and your road mates safe – no matter what the circumstances.

If you or a family member has been injured in a car accident, you may be entitled to recover significant compensation. Please contact Colling Gilbert Wright today. Call (407) 712-7300 to schedule your preliminary auto accident consultation.
