It won’t be long before the weather gets iffy, if that time hasn’t already arrived. Driving safely during the fall months requires more than just cautious driver behavior. Your car also needs some attention.-Check the Brakes and Tires: Inclement weather and associated road conditions and other hazards require good stopping power. That means good brakes and tires. If the tires have wear bars showing, say the experts, you need to replace the tires. Most good brake and tire shops will inspect the brakes and tires at no charge.
-Check the Lights: Replace all broken bulbs and those that have stopped working. Make sure all lights are clean.
-Replace Wiper Blades: The purpose of wiper blades is to completely clear the windshield. Cracked or worn blades won’t do an adequate job.
-Make Sure the Heater / Defroster Works: Driving with fogged-up windows is an accident waiting to happen. Check front and rear window defrosters to ensure proper working condition.
-Check Fluid Levels: This includes washer fluid, along with transmission, brake and power steering fluids. Make sure they are all at or above minimum safe levels and refill as necessary.
