Safe Summer Driving Tips

As summer begins, we’re certain of a couple of things: first, everyone likes to save money, and second, cars are going to break down from time to time. So, to save money on repairs, always come to Aero Auto Parts for the very best selection of reliable, cheap auto parts in Chicago, IL.

We know that many people are itching to take a summer trip, and we don’t blame you! With winter weather on snooze, it may seem like driving hazards are too. However, summer driving has its own driving hazards to contend with. Here are a few safe summer driving tips to keep problems to a minimum.

Engine check

Pop the hood and check the radiator pressure cap as well as all belts and hoses to make sure they’re in good shape with no blisters, cracks, or cuts in the rubber.

Fluid check

Like you, your vehicle needs to stay hydrated. Check your coolant and windshield washer levels, and get your mechanic to check the fluid levels of your brakes, power steering, and automatic transmission.

Tire check

Make sure all tires, including the spare, are inflated to the manufacturer’s specifications, found on your door jam. Look for any cracks, bulging, or breaks and check tire tread depth using a penny. Place a penny in several tread grooves over each tire. If you can always see the top of Lincoln’s head, it’s time to replace it.

Battery check

The typical lifespan of your vehicle’s battery is 3-6 years, and if yours is 3 years old, get it checked before heading out.

I got my windshield replaced recently and it took less than an hour. Then as I was driving home the rear view mirror fell off. It kept doing it so I rode back and they replaced it. No haggling or anything. With this kind of service I will keep coming back. I am a repeat customer as they do not dissapoint!

Decent prices on the parts you need. Honest and informative workers. Reasonable and efficient service. They’re also pretty well stocked and will likely have the part you need for just about any replacement or repair. If not, they’ll order it for you and usually have it in a day or so. Overall, no real complaints on my end. I’d recommend this place.
