Spring Vehicle Maintenance Checklist
Auto experts say rotating tires every 5,000 to 7,000 miles and checking fluids can help drivers avoid breakdowns and extend vehicle life.
Mopar North America senior vice president Darren Bradshaw said, "Winter takes its toll, even if it doesn't snow where you live, and a reset is good for you and your vehicle before the summer travel season."
Seasonal inspections help address winter wear, preparing vehicles for warmer weather and summer travel. Taking the right steps this spring helps drivers avoid major mechanical mishaps and hefty repair fees.
Bridgestone recommends rotating tires every 5,000-7,000 miles to maximize tread life. AutoZone's spring checklist notes, "Spring is a great time to check the health of your battery, especially if you've been experiencing slow starts."
Vehicle owners should regularly inspect fluid levels, including oil and coolant, for optimal performance. Inspecting the cabin air filter ensures contaminants stay out, providing clean air for passengers this spring.
