5 Auto Maintenance Tips for Summer

  1. Have Your Car Battery Tested. Winter can be cruel to a car battery. After winter and before summer begins, it’s recommended that you have your car battery tested to ensure that it is ready for summer.
  2. Have Your Fluids Checked. As summer arrives, it’s recommended that you have your vehicle’s fluids checked to ensure they are at their recommended levels.
