Have you prepared your vehicle for the Fall? Each season is an opportunity for you to ensure that your car has the best chance to operate at a peak level. And our dealership can help you decide which services are needed to prepare for the Fall and beyond.
The best way to maintain safe tires is to have them regularly rotated. Tires should be rotated based on the manufacturers’ specific recommendations unless otherwise specified by the automaker. Typically, they are rotated at 6,000-mile intervals or every six months. Fall is the ideal season to reset your tire maintenance if you’ve lost track or fallen behind. With winter right around the corner, you want to have the best traction to get through any severe weather conditions. Serra BMW Champaign also provides tire inspections, which includes checking the air pressure for the appropriate pounds per square inch (psi’s) and tread quality.
Fall is typically when the temperature begins to drop, and sometimes it can drop fast. Often, it occurs overnight! And that means a battery can become weakened without any warning whatsoever. By having a battery inspection and allowing our technicians to test the load capacity, you can feel more confident when you get up in the morning that your engine will start. With a battery inspection, we also ensure that the battery terminals and cables are free of acid corrosion, which is a major contributor to being unable to start an engine.
Often, drivers will find out that their wiper blades need replacing during a severe rainstorm. Unfortunately, that’s when deficient wiper blades tend to become inoperable and sometimes fall apart. The rubber compound simply cannot withstand the harsh conditions, and it’s imperative for your safety and others on the road that you have a wiper blade inspection to make sure the quality is sufficient. During the inspection, our technicians also visually check the wiper arm assembly and make certain there aren’t any potential issues that may arise. Wiper blade replacement usually takes less than an hour to complete.
While it’s good to make sure that your vehicle runs smoothly, it’s equally important to ensure that the interior comforts of driving remain in-tack as well. Components that should be inspected for the Fall season, include the following:
