\"\"It\u2019s April and National Car Care Month! <\/em><\/strong>Just as spring cleaning is a good idea for a home, spring maintenance is a smart idea for your car. It’s time for Texas Teens to think about car maintenance.\u00a0 After a season of cold temperatures, your car needs a little extra care to prepare it for the warm Texas weather ahead.\u00a0 Here is a list of car maintenance every Texas Teen Driver should do this spring to make sure their car is working properly.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Check Your Car Battery<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

The cold weather might be over, but the winter weather was hard on your car battery. Low temperatures forced your battery to work harder by slowing down its chemical reactions. Now, high temperatures are right around the corner, ready to evaporate essential battery fluids and speed up corrosion. Some signs your battery may be in trouble include: dimming headlights or interior lights, and slow-moving power windows or sunroofs. Have your battery checked out by a certified auto mechanic to be sure it\u2019s not about to give out.<\/p>\n

Teen Filling the\u00a0 Windshield Washer Fluid Tank<\/p><\/div>\n

Check Your Wiper Blades and Fluid<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

April showers bring May flowers<\/em> – so check your windshield wipers! Look for cracks in the wiper blades or poor contact between the blades and your windshield. If the wiper blades skip, streak, split or squeak, they should be replaced immediately. Proper working wipers are crucial for driving safely in Texas spring downpours and thunderstorms. The rule of thumb is to replace your windshield wipers every six months, but you can always replace them sooner if they\u2019re leaving streaks or are worn. It\u2019s also important to get ahead of the changing Texas seasons, and all the bugs that come with it, by checking and maintaining your windshield washer fluid level.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Check Your Oil and Oil Filter
\n<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Regularly scheduled oil changes help maintain a healthy engine. If it\u2019s been over 3,000 miles since your last oil change, it\u2019s best to get an oil change and check your brake, power steering, and transmission fluids. \u00a0As motor oil lubricates and cools the engine, it naturally picks up impurities, and oil becomes less effective as it ages. That\u2019s why regular oil and filter changes are so important. If it\u2019s too old, your motor oil can\u2019t do its job and protect your engine. Schedule an oil change at the start of spring to help your engine ride smoothly all season long.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Teen Checking the Condition of his Tires<\/p><\/div>\n

Check Your Tire Pressure and Alignment<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Why should you check your tire pressure between winter and spring<\/em>? Because fluctuations in temperature can cause fluctuations in tire pressure. In general, tires lose or gain 1 pound per square inch for every 10\u2109 change in temperature, and both under-inflated and over-inflated tires cause problems on the road. Under-inflated tires don\u2019t grip the road\u00a0as well as properly inflated tires. Keeping tires at the optimal pressure helps the tires last longer, saves on fuel, and enhances the handling of your vehicle. Check to see if all tires, including the spare, are inflated properly and balanced. The inside of your car door lists the correct tire pressure for the make and model of your vehicle. Road hazards such as cracks and deep potholes can compromise your vehicle\u2019s shocks and wheel alignment. This spring have a certified mechanic inspect your tires, suspension, and wheel alignment to ensure a smooth, safe ride<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Teen Inspecting the Wear of a Tire Tread Using a Penny<\/p><\/div>\n

Check Your Tire Tread<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Spring is an important time to check your tire\u2019s tread depth. Without sufficient tread, your tires can\u2019t grip the road effectively. This affects your car\u2019s performance in wet weather, and your ability to stop quickly. Check your tire\u2019s tread depth by using a penny and perform the \u201cpenny test\u201d.<\/u> Take a penny and insert it into the tread with Lincoln\u2019s head down. If his head disappears, you\u2019re good. If you can see the top of his head, then it\u2019s time for new tires. Do this test at several different places on your tires.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Deep Clean Your Head and Tail Lights<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just as our cars get dirty in winter, so do our headlights and tail lights. Spring is a great time to clean and polish your headlights and tail lights with a soft toothbrush, baking soda, and water to help them shine bright. If the lights are dim after a thorough cleaning, you may need to replace the bulbs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Get Your Brakes Checked<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Have a professional inspect your brakes to be sure they are ready for spring adventures and summer road trips. The spring season in Texas can be rainy and strong brakes are vital for safety on wet roads. You should inspect the entire brake system including the brake lines, hoses, parking brake, and brake fluid.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Texas Teen examining a Car Engine on a Summer Day<\/p><\/div>\n

Check Your Engine and Coolant<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Does everything look good under the hood? Does it pass the smell test? Do you<\/em> hear squeals or squeaks?<\/em> You should lift your hood and examine your enginefor cracks, swelled or fraying belts and hoses, and leaks. If something looks borderline, have it checked out or replace it yourself. The warmer Texas weather ahead could cause it to fail. A busted belt or hose can blow your whole engine and that is a costly repair you do not want to deal with. You may need to add coolant or have your engine flushed. Trying to make it through summer with inadequate coolant is risky.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Check Your Air Conditioning System
\n<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Part of keeping your car cool is checking your air conditioning system. If it\u2019s not providing enough cool air, you may need more refrigerant, or you may have\u00a0a clogged condenser, a leak, or a loose belt. Regardless, it\u2019s smart to check your car\u2019s air conditioning system in the spring before the peak heat of Texas summer arrives.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Spring Cleaning Your Car <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

After winter, a thorough spring cleaning of your car exterior and interior is needed. It\u2019s a good time to unload your car and trunk of clutter and remove any unnecessary weight to improve your car\u2019s gas mileage. Winter wear and tear affects the exterior of your vehicle. Dirt will collect on the body of your car causing scratches and rust. Get your car thoroughly cleaned inside and out.\u00a0 At the car wash, select additional options for a more thorough clean, and pay special attention to your vehicle\u2019s undercarriage to get the dirt off that accumulated over winter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Educate Yourself About Your Car<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

If you aren\u2019t comfortable doing car maintenance yourself, take your vehicle to a trusted mechanic for a thorough inspection. This will ensure that everything is ready to go for Texas\u2019 warmer temperatures. In the meantime, the more car maintenance you can learn, the better.\u00a0 Most Texas Teens can change windshield washer fluid, check tire tread, change their oil, clean the car interior and exterior, and lift the hood to check out the engine.\u00a0 Keep a dated log of all your car maintenance and repairs. Be proactive this spring with your car maintenance because nothing will ruin your spring or summer road trip like unexpected car problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
