8 Tips For Spring Car Care:

A spring checkup is the perfect way to thank your vehicle for it’s admirable performance over the winter. In order to properly thank your car, truck or SUV, consider the following tips when maintaining your vehicle after a long winter.

1. Batteries, Plugs & Wires

Since they work extra hard when it’s cold, winter stress can wreak havoc on your batteries and connections, hindering performance up to 60%. Testing and replacing these components, especially those over three years old, can mean the difference between smooth operation and expensive repairs.

2. Tire Pressure

When checking your vehicle, it is incredibly important that your tires are properly balanced and inflated. Since cold weather can reduce tire pressure, you’ll want to check and make sure they are at the correct PSI.

3. Belts & Hoses

The next step is to check and ensure your belts aren’t cracked and worn and your hoses aren’t blistered, brittle or soft.

4. Brake Systems

One of the most important systems in your vehicle, all components included in your vehicle’s brake system will also require inspection.

5. ​ Suspension & Wheel Alignment

It is also advisable to check the wheel alignment and suspension of your car, truck or SUV. This inspection will determine whether or not replacing worn or leaking parts will help to alleviate any larger issues that may occur in the future

6. Fluid Levels

Making sure your engine oil, brake fluid, coolant, and even your windshield washer fluid are topped off is integral when spring-checking your vehicle.

7. Engine Air Filter

A quick fix that can save you money on future repairs, replacing your engine’s air filter can be done at the same time as your fluid changes.

8. Windshield Wipers

One of the easiest components to overlook, the windshield wipers on vehicle should be checked for cracks and tears.

How Can I Rebuild My Credit Score?

Can I Rebuild My Credit Score with an Auto Loan? If you have a poor credit score, or no credit, then an auto loan is the simplest and most reliable method to build it back up, and quickly. The auto finance center at Honda of Tiffany Springs in Kansas City, MO works with customers who have bad credit and no credit to help them get the car they need and find an auto loan that can help them build their credit score.
