It’s Time For Your Car’s Spring Maintenance!

Spring has arrived! And, while we’re glad to see the winter weather subside and the warm air arrive, we also know that spring brings the dreaded spring cleaning. It also means that it’s time for your car’s spring maintenance.

What Type of Spring Maintenance Does My Car Need?

There is a long list of spring maintenance and services that we recommend.

• Spring Cleaning – We know that you’ve been stacking cups, trash, and winter gear in your car all winter long. Now is the time to deep clean your car inside and out. Start with the interior cabin and remove anything that doesn’t belong. Then give it a good vacuum, wash, and dusting. Don’t forget to wash the inside windows as they can get dirty too. Next, you’ll want to clean the outside of your vehicle. Rinse off the dirt, grime, and salt from the winter roads, inspect for issues or rust, and don’t forget to clean the undercarriage.
• Tire Changes – If you have winter tires on your vehicle, you’ll want to schedule a tire switch. If you were driving around Lebanon, OR, Corvallis, OR, or beyond in all seasons, make sure to have the tires rotated to ensure even wear. Don’t forget to check the spare tire as well!
• Brake Inspections – While the technician is changing over your tires, ask them to take a look at your brakes. It’s always a good idea to have them checked out after every season.
• Windshield Inspection – If you’ve had the unfortunate rock hit your windshield, you’ll want to have your windshield replaced or repaired. Now is also a good time to change your windshield wipers and refill your windshield wiper fluid.
