The end of summer means the return of daily commutes, rushed mornings, and traffic around schools. After weeks of heat, vacations, and long drives, your vehicle might need a little tune-up before tackling the busy back-to-school season.
At NAPA AUTOPRO, our experts are here to help you get your vehicle ready so your trips are safe and free of unpleasant surprises.
To keep your vehicle reliable and safe, make sure to check these key points:
Brakes: After all those summer roads, make sure they respond quickly and without unusual noise.
Tires: Check their pressure and wear, especially with the temperature changes at the end of summer.
Engine oil and fluids: Clean oil and proper levels of coolant and windshield washer fluid are essential for a healthy engine.
Battery: If it shows any signs of weakness, now is the time to have it tested to avoid a breakdown on those first cool mornings.
With school traffic and daily commutes resuming, staying alert is essential. Remember to:
Clean your windows and headlights for maximum visibility.
Check your wiper blades to be ready for the first autumn rains.
Test your signal and brake lights to ensure you’re clearly visible to other drivers, especially on dark or rainy mornings.
Take advantage of this transition period to give your car a back-to-school checkup.
Visit your local NAPA AUTOPRO service centre for a full inspection and drive into the season with complete peace of mind.
