Summer Maintenance Tips

Why is Summer Maintenance Necessary?

Summer maintenance falls into the seasonal maintenance category recommended due to component decline and vehicle risk associated with temperature fluctuation and driving condition change. Many components that served well throughout the winter might be showing some wear and tear or experiencing a substandard performance. To keep your vehicle’s reliability and overall performance at its best for summer, we recommend summer preparation maintenance.

Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection

The multi-point inspection is an excellent way to assess overall vehicle performance by evaluating the primary systems and components. A multi-point inspection is a bumper-to-bumper evaluation completed by a certified technician using the genuine Chevrolet inspection form. The inspection includes everything, including the battery, tires, brakes, fluids, interior controls, and mechanics under the hood.

A/C Service & Repair

A/C service is often needed to restore air conditioning performance before it gets really hot outside. If your A/C isn’t performing at its best or blows out air at ambient temperature, be sure to get an A/C inspection and corrective maintenance as needed to restore performance before you face a sizzling cabin.

Car Wash & Detailing

Winter is not only cold but features dirty roads with corrosive road treatment that are often found lingering inside the cabin and on the auto body. A professional car wash and detailing service is an excellent way to remove winter’s remnants, enhance driving comfort, and promote the highest resale value.

Coolant Fluid

Coolant fluid is needed in all seasons, but summer’s heat raises the maintenance stakes. Be sure to get the coolant fluid inspected and exchanged if needed to keep the engine at the optimal temperature, as it works hard this summer.
