Celebrate Spring With a Safe Car

March 5th, 2019 by

When you’re ready to pull your car out of winter hibernation, make Schaumburg Toyota the Toyota dealership you rely on. Whether you’ve been keeping your vehicle in the garage or taking it out on the road all winter long, you’ll want to have a few inspections, checks, and upgrades performed at the start of the new season to ensure everything runs as smoothly and safely as possible.

When the weather turns warmer and it’s time for a spring car tune-up, you’ll want to start by dusting off the manual. That will give you the servicing and scheduling information specific to your vehicle. Then go ahead and make an appointment to get your alignment checked. Poor winter driving conditions, potholes, and snow banks can damage a car’s alignment, making it unsafe and potentially causing expensive repairs down the line. Your technician will also perform a tread check to make sure that none of your tires are wearing down faster than the others.

The next step your technician will take when going over your Toyota car for the new season will be a belt, hose, and battery check, as all three are prone to damage in the colder weather. They’ll also test your brakes to make sure slippery road surfaces haven’t caused any damage. At the end of it all, make sure to give your car a thorough scrub down—salt, snow, and winter grime can cause rust and corrosion over time, so don’t let it sit for too long.

When you’re ready to take that first step for the new season, let Schaumburg Toyota help. Come on down to 875 W Golf Road in Schaumburg today to get the service, parts and care you and your car deserve—so you can enjoy the sunny days with peace of mind.
