April was National Car Care month and California Low Cost Auto encourages drivers to conduct essential vehicle maintenance to prepare for the spring driving season.
- Spring Cleaning: The holidays can lead to a buildup of clutter in your car. Unloading your car removes unnecessary weight and improves gas mileage. Winter wear and tear will also affect the outside of your vehicle. Salt and dirt will collect on the body of your car causing scratches and rust. Selecting additional options at a car wash or paying special attention to the undercarriage will help eliminate these issues.
- Prepare for Spring Showers: April showers bring May flowers so check your windshield wipers. Look for cracks or poor contact on your car's windshield. If the wiper blades skip, streak, split or squeak, they should be replaced immediately. Proper working wipers are crucial during spring downpours for the safety of you and your passengers.
