Essential Fall Services for Dwight Drivers
Change the Oil
Oil is the lifeblood of your vehicle's engine. Older, dirty engine oil can cause increased friction and engine wear. Getting a fall oil change with fresh, clean oil will help your engine run smoother as temperatures drop.
Inspect the Brakes
Your brakes are one of the most critical safety features on your vehicle. As road conditions can become more slippery in the fall and winter, it's essential that your brakes are in proper working order. Our technicians will inspect your brake pads, calipers, rotors, and brake fluid to ensure your vehicle can stop safely.
Check the Tires and Alignment
Proper tire pressure and tread depth are important year-round, but especially as fall turns to winter. Cooler temperatures can cause the tire pressure to lower. Balding tires will have less traction on wet or snowy roads. We'll ensure your tires are properly inflated and have sufficient tread.
Make Sure the Heating System Works
There's nothing worse than getting into a freezing car on a cold fall morning and finding out your heater is blowing cold air. An inspection of your vehicle's heating system will catch any issues so you can stay warm and comfortable all season.
