Check Over Your Coolant System

Keeping your engine cold is key, one of the most important parts of driving in hot weather! You do this by making sure your vehicle has the right level of coolant, that its hoses and connectors work properly and don’t leak, and that the hoses are firm and not soft. Overall, it’s important to have a good system as the weather heats up.

Check Your Engine Belts

The serpentine belt runs between the alternator, fan, and other components, and it’s critically important. It can deteriorate, become loose, squeal, and even break for no reason. That’s why it’s important you keep it in good condition with the right amount of tension. Always replace this belt if it starts to show signs of wear.

Watch Your Tires Closely

Another important thing you should do is to check your tires regularly all year round. You should make sure the pressure is correct according to your model and tires, the treads should be free of stones, stray nails, and similar. You should also make sure the tires are in good condition, meaning no cracks, no uneven wear, and other similar things.
