Scheduling regular GMC service is one of the most important steps you can take to protect and care for your vehicle, improve efficiency, and maintain both safety and vehicle value. It’s especially important to schedule service for spring, as winter can be tough on cars. Learn about essential spring maintenance tasks at McGuire Buick GMC.
Battery Inspection
Car batteries are more vulnerable to environmental changes than might be expected. Cold temperatures can significantly reduce battery capacity, sometimes by up to 50% in extreme conditions. It’s important to schedule a battery inspection at the start of spring, so you can take every warm weather road trip without worrying about getting stranded.
Oil Changes
The oil in your vehicle is essential for cooling and lubricating the engine to prevent overheating and wear. Over time, it collects dirt and debris that kick up from the road surface before they can damage the engine. In the winter, there is much more dirt and debris on the road, including salt and sand, and your oil is likely to get contaminated more quickly, so it can no longer do the job well. Schedule an oil change for spring to support vehicle efficiency, safety, and comfort.
Tire Inspection
If you made the switch to winter tires, now is the time to switch back to all-season tires. If you kept your all-season tires, you’ll want to schedule tire service to make sure there was no damage or tread loss from the more inclement conditions of winter roads. Temperature fluctuations can also lead to pressure loss, so you want to get the tire pressure checked, as well.
