“Spring” into Exhilaration This Season

Spring is finally here with warmer weather and sunnier days ahead—but is your car ready for the new season? After all, you still have a few wet days ahead to prepare for—and on sunny days, you’ll want to ensure you and your motor will receive proper cooling. No need to panic though, as we’ll let you know some of our top spring car maintenance tips to help you dominate the new season with finesse. Also, schedule your Honda maintenance online today at Spitzer Honda DuBois near Clearfield, PA, to help get your ride spring-ready.

Start Under the Hood: Where the Maintenance Schedule Begins

When it’s time for car maintenance in the spring, pop your hood and make sure everything is running in premier condition. Start by looking at your belts and hoses to help ensure nothing ripped or tore during the chilled winter days. Also, ask our technicians to look at your coolant to help ensure you’re working with fresh fluids. Speaking of liquids, have our experts perform an oil change and oil filter replacement to help reduce your wear and tear while providing optimal cooling to your powertrain.

While we’re at it, our technicians can also peek around and see if any parts need a replacement. Sometimes the cold weather drains your battery or causes parts to become damaged—so, this is one of your best opportunities to catch potential issues early and get them fixed to help make sure you’re geared for smooth cruises ahead.

Spring Cleaning and More: What Else Should You Check?

Now that the days are getting warmer, clean out the interior of your vehicle—not only will your passengers thank you, but you also reduce the odds of winter grime staining your upholstery or the ice salts from damaging your carpets and seats. Don’t forget to wash and wax your exterior since those salts can corrode your vehicle’s body.

Next, take your car to us, and let us check your suspension and alignment. After all, driving over a pothole or hitting a snow mound can knock your wheels out of alignment, which can harm your performance, make your ride harder to control, and even cause your tires to wear unevenly (leading to reduced fuel economy and more wear and tear on your tread). Our team of factory-trained technicians can also make sure your dampers and springs are ready to help your ride absorb rough impacts on the road and handle your turns with finesse to help you enjoy premium rides for many miles ahead. Lastly, schedule a brake inspection to help ensure you’re stopping where you plan and without obnoxious squeals for boosted safety.
