CAR CARE FOR 2013
- Every TWELVE months or 12,000 miles, the brakes, spark plugs, coolant and steering and suspension should be checked to prolong the life of your vehicle.
- Every THREE months or 3,000 miles, change the engine oil and filter, check the levels of other fluids including automatic transmission, power steering and brake, and check battery and cables, belts and hoses.
- The exhaust and fuel filter should also be checked at the THREE month interval also.
- Perform MONTHLY checks of tire pressure & the condition of tires, lights & windshield washer fluid.
- The vehicle should also be cleaned MONTHLY.
- Every SIX months or 6,000 miles, the chassis lubrication should be checked & windshield wipers should be replaced so that you can clearly see the road ahead and behind you.
If the "Check Engine" light comes on, vehicles should be IMMEDIATELY taken in for service to identify the problem. It may indicate a small issue or it could be a major problem. Don't risk it in 2013!
