The winter months can take a toll on your vehicle, from the battery to the tires and more. As the weather starts to warm up in the Macon area, it's important to give your car some extra attention to make it ready for the warmer months ahead.
At Sutton Acura, we recommend taking care of these key maintenance tasks to get your car in top shape for the new season.
Spring Tire Changeover
One of the first things you should do is swap out your winter tires for a set of all-season tires. Winter tires are designed for snowy and icy conditions, but they wear down quickly on dry, warm pavement. Switching to all-season tires will provide better handling, traction, and fuel efficiency for spring and summer driving. If you live in the Macon area, the tire experts at Sutton Acura can help you find the right set of tires for your vehicle.
Check Your Brakes
Winter driving conditions put more stress on your brakes. That's why it's a good idea to have your brakes inspected by a professional in the spring. This is especially important if you do a lot of driving in the Griffin GA area, where hilly terrain can put extra strain on your braking system. The technicians at Sutton Acura can check your brakes and make any necessary repairs to ensure you can stop safely.
Test Your Battery
Cold temperatures can be hard on your car's battery, causing it to wear down faster. If you live in the Milledgeville area, you know how chilly it can get in the winter months. To make sure your battery still has enough charge, we recommend having it tested in the spring. The service center at Sutton Acura has the equipment to test your battery and replace it if needed, so you don't end up stranded with a dead battery.
Get a Post-Winter Inspection
It's a good idea to have your vehicle thoroughly inspected in the spring. A post-winter inspection can reveal any issues that may have developed over the colder months, such as worn suspension components, loose belts or hoses, or fluid leaks. The technicians at Sutton Acura can perform an inspection to catch any potential problems before they turn into major repairs.
