October is Car Care Month

When the changing seasons make you think of pulling blankets and heavier jackets out of storage, don't forget to ready your car for the upcoming colder months. Did you know tire pressure can decrease significantly during cold weather? Or that the heat of the summer often dries out hoses that deliver important fluids to your car during the winter?

October Car Care Month is the perfect time to visit a technician for a maintenance and safety inspection. Additionally, many AAA Approved Auto Repair facilities offer discounts or even free safety checks to AAA members.

Proper maintenance and regular inspections can extend the life of your car and give you peace of mind. Be sure to check your tires, fluid levels, brakes, lights, battery, hoses, belts and windshield wipers before the first winter storm hits.
