For many drivers around Fort Payne, the holiday season means traveling to see loved ones. Before you embark on your holiday travels this year, we encourage you to check a few areas of your vehicle and ensure everything is performing at the highest level so you can drive confidently knowing your vehicle is prepared to make a long trip. From checking your tires for wear and getting them rotated to ensuring that your fluids are properly filled, there are a few things that you can do yourself at home or have addressed in our service center to ensure that your vehicle is performing at the highest level during your holiday travels.

Check Your Tires

Your tires are what the entire performance of your vehicle rests on. That’s why, whether you're traveling a couple towns over or across states, it's important that you check your tires. If your front tires are looking more worn out than your back tires, a tire rotation can extend the lifespan of all four tires and provide you with greater traction, handling and stopping ability, giving you a higher level of performance wherever you go.

Change Your Windshield Wipers

When you're traveling this time of year, weather can be unexpected and come on in an instant. From heavy rain to more inclement weather the farther north you go, you cant to ensure you have the visibility you need. That's why we suggest changing your windshield wipers before you embark on your trips this holiday season.

Check Fluids

Whether you need an oil change to properly protect your engine, coolant to protect your vehicle from the cold or windshield wiper fluid to keep your windshield clean, it's important that all your vehicle's fluids are topped off.
