Your car works hard for you, so it makes sense to give it a little attention at home. Basic maintenance checks are quick to learn and can keep your vehicle in good shape. Many Hattiesburg drivers already do these tasks once a month without any special tools.
Oil level is one of the first things to look at. Pull the dipstick out, wipe it off, slide it back in, and check where the oil sits. Tires matter too. Low air pressure uses more gas, and worn tread gets slippery on rainy Hattiesburg roads. Pop the hood and glance at your coolant, brake fluid, and washer fluid while you are at it.
Lights are often overlooked. Walk around your car and test the headlights, brake lights, and signals. Swap out any dead bulbs right away. Do a quick check of your battery terminals for white or green buildup as well. Our crew at Pace Auto Sales, located at 6812 U.S. Highway 98, Hattiesburg, MS, is glad to help.
