• Check your car tires – Properly inflated tires save you money at the gas pump. So check your car tire pressure. You can either inflate or deflate the tires as required by comparing it to the recommended level of pressure.
• Change oil – This is very important. See your driver’s manual and find out how often the oil needs to be changed. Generally the oil is changed after 3,000 miles. At Girard Nissan you can see what the manufacturer’s recommended grade of motor oil is suggested for used on your vehicle.
• Get new wiper blades – Buy new wiper blades for your car and be prepared for any passing summer storms.
• Park in the shade – Protect your car from scorching sun in summer. Park your car in share or a garage. If you keep your vehicle in a cool temperature you don’t have to be concerned about the heat evaporating the fuel from your tank.
• Replace air filters – Ensure that you change your air filters twice a year to keep your vehicle running like new.
