Fall Car Maintenance: Get Ready for Changing Temperatures
As the leaves begin to turn, Massachusetts drivers should prepare for cold mornings, rainy days, and the coming winter. Fall maintenance is about prevention and protection.
?? Check Your Brakes
Wet and slippery roads are common in the fall. Make sure your brakes are in top condition.
?? Battery and Charging System
Before cold weather hits, ensure your battery and alternator are working properly.
??? Inspect Tires and Rotate
Falling temperatures reduce tire pressure. Check PSI weekly and look for wear patterns.
??? Replace Wiper Blades
Don’t wait for a storm to find out your wipers don’t work well. Replace them before heavy rains arrive.
?? Heater and Defroster
Test your car’s heating and defrost systems to make sure you're ready for the cold mornings ahead.
