![]() With the holiday season upon us, most of us are in full swing present purchasing mode. Our checklists have been made for the items we would like to get our loved ones; holiday party potluck checklists made; maybe even New Years resolution checklist in the works too. With all of the holiday festivities we sometimes forget the most important checklist, especially if one is planning on a holiday road trip to visit family and friends; our vehicle maintenance checklist. I say that this is more important than your present checklist because it would be a really big bummer if you broke down on your way to spend time with those loved ones. Below you will find a simple checklist that you can go through to be proactive before your holiday vacation. 1. Check condition and level of ALL fluids. This includes oil, transmission, brake/clutch, and windshield washer fluids. If any are low or seem dirty it could be time for a fluid exchange. 2. Notice if your vehicle has any links. This may not be fixable in your driveway, but if found early most leaks will be inexpensive to fix. 3. Inspect tire condition. You can use the penny test to check the tread depth (with Lincoln's head down, the tread should cover up to his neck). Visually inspect the rubber condition, looking for tears or uneven wear (if you see cords get to the tire shop ASAP) 4. Replace the wiper blades. The months of sunny days here in San Diego dries out the rubber of our wiper blades. Just like me, you probably haven't used your blades since May and they are torn up. As always, we are here to help! We offer a 55-pt inspection that will cover the above and more combined with a lube, oil and filter change for only $127 labor cost*! Give us a call today to schedule an appointment 619-562-3933 *parts and hazmat extra. some vehicles will be extra labor
