The warm weather of the summer season can have a harsh impact on your vehicle if it’s not maintained properly. Before the weather warms up, let the service technicians at Road Runner Auto Care in Apple Valley check the fluids and other components that can quickly get depleted.

Important Systems to Maintain Before Summer

The coolant system is perhaps the most important one to maintain in the summer. If the radiator, cooling fan, and thermostat don’t work properly, then the vehicle will likely overheat. If the vehicle overheats, then the motor can be damaged, causing the vehicle not to run properly or not to run at all. Road Runner Auto Care in Apple Valley can check the coolant levels to make sure they are where they should be and perform a pressure test to determine if there are any leaks. Road Runner Auto Care can also examine the fan to ensure that it comes on when the vehicle reaches a certain temperature and to ensure that there isn’t anything preventing the fan from turning.
