The Cooling and Electrical System
To keep you and your car’s engine cool it’s important to keep your cooling and electrical system well maintained.
The cooling system has to work harder in the hot weather and it’s one of the most common reasons for breakdowns in summer. Remember that you’ll be using the air conditioning a lot more, and that relies on a well-maintained cooling and electrical system.
Unless you’re a qualified mechanic, have your entire cooling and electrical system checked by a professional who will also make sure your car air conditioning is in great shape.
Check your Tyres
Tyre pressure and tyre tread should be regularly checked all year round because worn and over- or under-inflated tyres can affect your car’s handling and braking.
It’s especially important if you’re loading up your car with luggage and extra weight for your holiday road trip or driving on hot roads.
Don’t forget to check the spare tyre.
See Clearly
No matter where you’re going for your summer holidays, you need to see clearly, day and night.
Make sure your windscreen is clean and your wiper blades are in good condition for those unexpected downpours. Also ensure your washer bottle is filled so you can quickly clean your windscreen on the go.
Check that all your headlights and tail lights are in good working order.
Regular Servicing
Even if your car isn’t due for its regular service it’s a good idea to take it into your mechanic for a thorough safety inspection before you go on holiday.
You’ll be able to relax and enjoy peace of mind knowing your car is in good condition and up to the task of all that extra summer driving.
