Getting your Volvo ready for fall weather doesn’t have to be difficult. These are the key Volvo service tasks to keep in mind:
Tire Inspection
What do the treads look like on your tires? If your tires are older, the treads could be pretty shallow.
If this is the case, they won’t be able to give you the traction you need, and this can be pretty worrisome when our roads get slippery. Even if your tires are fine, you may want to have them rotated or inspected to make sure the air pressure is at the right level.
Battery Test
Batteries can struggle when the temperature changes, so you have to know you’ll be able to rely on yours. You can do this by having it tested at a Tom Wood service center.
This will let you know how much charge it has left. And, since batteries don’t generally have a very long lifespan, it could be time to consider getting a new one.
Brake Check
Wet roads, leaves, and eventually ice and snow are all things we have to prepare for in Indiana. This is why you have to ensure that your brakes will give you the best stopping power they can.
Getting them checked will enable you to gauge their health and determine if something is wearing down and needs to be replaced.
Wiper Replacement
What do your windshield wipers look like? If they’re an old set, they may not be in great condition.
Getting new wipers is something that definitely needs to be on your list, because wipers play such a big role in ensuring you have the best visibility when driving. You should also have the fluid reservoir topped off.
You can get these tasks and any others completed at the service center at Tom Wood Volvo. Get in touch to schedule an appointment.
