5 Honda Service Essentials for Summer
Now that summer has arrived here in Chehalis, WA, people are planning their summer road trips, commuting to work in the scorching heat, and driving their kids around town to their summer activities. Before taking your Honda car out in the heat, it is vital to ensure it is in good mechanical condition. Our certified Honda technicians will check these five things during your summer Honda service appointment.
Air Conditioning System Check-Up
The last thing you want on a scorching summer day is a broken air conditioner. Our technicians will ensure that your car’s A/C works properly, including checking refrigerant levels, inspecting the compressor, and cleaning the filters.
Tire Rotation and Inspection
Hot summer weather can cause your car’s tires to fluctuate in pressure, affecting the handling and fuel economy. Our technicians will perform a tire rotation, check for signs of worn tread, and check the tire pressure.
Fluid Level Check
Your Honda car relies on several fluids to run smoothly. The summer heat can cause these fluids to evaporate more quickly than usual, negatively affecting the car’s performance. We’ll check the following fluids and refill them if necessary:
- Brake fluid
- Transmission fluid
- Power steering fluid
- Engine oil
- Coolant (also known as antifreeze)
Battery Inspection
Extreme temperatures can put an extra strain on your car’s battery. We’ll inspect the battery terminals and make sure that it has enough charge for the summer.
Engine Evaluation
Finally, hot summer weather can cause existing engine issues to grow worse. We’ll complete a comprehensive engine inspection, checking for worn-out parts, leaks, and other potential problems.
