April has been declared as National Car Care Month by the Car Care Council. The changing of seasons can have a great impact on the performance of your car. April is a prime month to inspect all aspects of your car and get it ready for the warmest months Houston experiences.
The Gillman Nissan team in Rosenberg near Houston, Stafford, Katy and Sugar Land, Tx has a few care care tips to keep your vehicle in tip-top shape for the warmer weather.
Fluid Levels
It is recommended that you check your fluid levels during the spring because your car works harder during the winter months, using more fluid than in warmer months. Brake fluid, oil, coolant levels and battery fluid can all be checked by our maintenance team at Gillman Nissan.
Tire Care
Checking your tires frequently is crucial to the performance of your vehicle. According to the US Department of Energy, you can save on gas mileage by up to 3.3 percent just by keeping your tires at their optimal tire pressure.
Hoses and Belts
Components under the hood often get overlooked simply because they are hidden. Getting your hoses and belts inspected for excessive wear or damage can save you hundreds and improve the overall performance of your Nissan.
"Whether you visit a professional service technician or do it yourself, a thorough vehicle inspection this spring can help keep your car safe and dependable and help you avoid much higher costs down the road in the form of more extensive repairs or lost resale value," said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council.
