Make sure your vehicle is ready for your summer road trips

Are you planning any major road trips this summer? If you are, the staff at Hummel Brothers Automotive in Burlington strongly suggest you bring your vehicle in to ensure it’s ready for all the kilometres you plan to put on the odometer.

Before your big trek across the country, check and top up all fluids and consider getting a tune-up. Make a car kit containing any small tools or fluids you may need in case something happens on the highway or back roads. Check your tires for tread life, correct pressure and any bulges or punctures. Make sure your spare tire is in good working order so it can be used if you blow a tire on the trip.

Make sure windshield wipers are in good working order. Many road trips travel across different weather patterns, so be ready for anything. Always check your car’s air filter, and above all else, check your oil. If you are due for an oil change, get it done before the trip. Nothing will ruin a trip quicker than being stuck on the side of a road in a city you are unfamiliar with. The only thing worse is using your vacation money to make repairs and being unable to continue on your journey.
