Summer in Vero Beach is not just about sun-drenched beaches and longer days; it’s also the perfect time to ensure your Chevy is ready to handle the heat with ease. At Dyer Chevrolet Vero Beach Service Department, we understand that your car is an integral part of summer adventures, and we’re here with some expert tips to keep your Chevy cruising smoothly through the season.
Embrace the Heat with Confidence
Cool Down and Cruise: Before you hit the road for that long-awaited road trip, let’s make sure your Chevy’s air conditioning is up to the task. A quick inspection can prevent you from facing the sweltering summer heat on your own. Our team checks for any signs of wear in belts and hoses and ensures your AC is cold enough to turn your car into a refreshing escape from the heat.
Stay Cool Under the Hood: The rising temperatures can be tough on your engine. Checking and topping off your coolant levels is a quick but crucial task that helps prevent your Chevy from overheating. Remember, an overheated engine can quickly sideline your summer plans, so this check is a must-do before the season heats up.
Keep Your Chevy Running Smoothly
Stick to Your Maintenance Schedule: Are you gearing up for an adventure in your Chevrolet Suburban, hitting the race track in your Camaro, or navigating city streets in your Chevy Equinox? Each of these activities puts unique demands on your vehicle, underscoring the importance of regular maintenance tailored to your driving habits.
Sticking to your Chevy’s maintenance schedule is key. A regular oil change, ideally every 7,500 to 10,000 miles, is essential. Fresh oil keeps your engine parts well-lubricated and less prone to overheating.
Check Your Treads and Brakes: Summer can be tough on tires. Use the simple penny test to check your tread depth: insert a penny into the tire groove with Lincoln’s head upside down. If you can see all of his head, it’s time for tire service. Don’t forget to check your brakes too; responsive brakes are crucial for those unexpected summer showers.
Battery Health is Wealth: High temperatures can strain your battery. Ensure your summer is uninterrupted by scheduling a battery inspection. This way, you avoid the inconvenience of a car that won’t start when you’re trying to enjoy your summer outings.
Diagnostics: The Preventative Measure
Even if everything seems fine, scheduling a diagnostic test is a proactive way to catch potential issues like misfiring cylinders before they escalate. It’s better to spot these problems early than to find yourself stuck on the side of the road.
