How To Prepare Your Car For A Road Trip [Video]

How should you ensure your car is ready to leave San Diego and go on an adventure? It’s an important question to consider. Before heading out on a long trip, prepare your car by following these three steps:

First, check to see if you need an oil change. Oil is vital to your car’s performance because it lubricates the internal engine parts and keeps them cool. It also traps dust, dirt and containments during the combustion process.

Second, check your tire pressure. Low pressure can cause them to burst.

Third, check liquids. You’d hate to run out of window washing fluid if it rains. While you’re at it, inspect antifreeze and brake fluid levels.

Does this sound like a lot of work? Take your car down to Soapy Joe’s! We’d be happy to give your car a full maintenance run-through.
