As summer grows nearer and you start planning your family vacation and road trips, don’t forget about one of the most important parts of the planning process: your vehicle! We here at Heidebreicht want to make sure you and your family get where you’re going safely. Below are a few of the best tips you must do before your road trip.

Tires

Before embarking on your road trip, check your tires to make sure they are in good condition. They should have good tread, even-wearing, and no nicks/dings on the sidewalls. If you see any of these problems, replace the tire(s) and consider getting an alignment. Also, check your tire pressure to increase your miles per gallon!

Fluids

Your engine requires a lot of fluids to keep running properly. Check your oil, transmission fluid, coolant, and brake fluid before any long drives. If any are low or dirty, bring your Chevy to Heidebreicht in Washington, Michigan to have the fluid changed, added, or flushed, as the situation may call for.

System Check

It is never a bad idea to have your vehicle looked over by a professional before a long trip, especially during the summer when some systems, such as air conditioning and cooling systems, may be put under even more stress than usual. Heidebreicht is conveniently located on Van Dyke Rd, and we are always willing to take a look at your vehicle. The peace of mind that comes with having a professional check your vehicle before a road trip is priceless. Don’t forget to have your vehicle serviced by Heidebreicht’s service department before you leave!
