Hyundai Summer Maintenance Tips
Brought to you by Interstate Hyundai
We have not only survived the winter, but now we're already gearing up for the summer months ahead! While spring always seems to fly by, we understand that this is a really good time to check in with your vehicle and make sure that it's ready for all of those road trips that we're sure you're busy planning. No one wants to be left with a vehicle that hasn't been properly maintained when they need it the most. At Interstate Hyundai, our goal is to give our customers the information they need to take care of their Hyundai and have as much fun as possible! Keep reading down below to find out some helpful tips that will make your summer go by more smoothly than ever before.
Check fluid levels:
The first thing we highly recommend you do is to check the different fluid levels in your vehicle. This not only includes something like engine oil, but coolants that help to keep all of the systems in your vehicle cool. As you can likely guess, that's especially important in hotter months where you really need everything to not be burning up. Other important fluids to mention include transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and even brake fluid. You can refer to the owner's manual for the specific fluid type.
Fix the air conditioning:
While you most likely didn't need your air conditioning for the winter months, as soon as summer comes along, you'll be utilizing your air conditioning a lot. For this reason, if you have noticed that your system is on the fritz, you'll want to schedule an appointment here at Interstate Hyundai so our technicians can see what the problem is, diagnose it, and fix it! You do not want to be driving around in a hot vehicle for all of the summer months.
Properly inflate tires:
Whether tires are over- or under-inflated, both instances can produce problems. That is why it's so vital to the overall health of the vehicle that your tires all be inflated the right amount, with no more or no less than what is necessary. All of these figures will be kept in your owner's manual, but at our service center, we would be more than happy to assist you in this process if you're having any issues for any reason.
Inspect your battery
The last thing we want you to do is ensure that your battery is functioning properly. While batteries can take a beating during the winter, they are also highly susceptible to damage due to heat, too. That's why you want your battery to be working well even before summer hits. If you notice any corrosion or problems with the wires, we recommend scheduling an appointment and letting a professional take a closer look.
