Spring Car Care Tips

Salt Lake City is warming up and spring time is officially here! Harsh winter weather can often be tough on a vehicle, so this is the time to reward your car for taking such good care of you by making sure you do some basic spring car maintenance. Use the following spring car care tips to get your vehicle ready for warmer weather!

• Check Your Battery, Plugs and Wires: Winter cold can significantly decrease your car battery's performance. Have a Certified Technician assess the strength of your batter to ensure you don't get stranded out on the road.
• Check Your Tires: Colder air can decrease air pressure in your tires which can cause them to wear more quickly and unevenly. Check your tires using a tire pressure gauge and inflate them to the appropriate levels as necessary. Check your tire pressure often, as it is not uncommon for pressure to change frequently. 
• Check Your Fluid Levels: It's always a good idea to make sure your vehicle is topped off on all fluids--including your oil levels! Your Larry H. Miller Chevrolet Murray Technicians will do this automatically when you come in for an oil change.
• Check Your Windshield Wipers: Winter can leave wiper blades stiff and cracked, resulting in poor visibility during times of wet weather. Get them changed out on your next service visit. You'll be glad you did! 
• Check the Engine Air Filter: All of the beautiful spring blossoms also fill the air with pollens and dusts that you'll want to be sure get caught in your air filter. Have your Certified Technician examine your filters to be sure that your vehicle is ready for everything spring throws at you.
