Keep Your Vehicle Hydrated By Checking These Fluids
No matter who, where, or even what you are, we all have to drink fluids to stay hydrated and survive. Your vehicle is no different. Regardless of make, mileage, or model, your vehicle needs certain fluids to stay performing in tip-top condition for the long term. If your vehicle is low on fluids, its overall performance and driveability will be negatively affected. To ensure your vehicle stays safe, the team at Dick’s Automotive recommends staying on a routine maintenance schedule.
To keep your vehicle healthy and hydrated, it is essential to have these fluid levels inspected by a professional:
Oil: We have all heard of this fluid, but you might be surprised to learn how many individuals forget to have this fluid inspected. Your vehicle is made up of thousands of moving parts, and all these parts need to stay lubricated, which is where oil comes in. When your vehicle doesn’t have enough oil, your engine might succumb to expensive and dangerous repairs.
Transmission Fluid: Your transmission is easily one of your vehicle’s most complicated components. Without transmission fluid, your transmission system might start to break down, as transmission fluid works the same as oil — it keeps your transmission properly lubricated.
Radiator Fluid: Coolant can be found in your radiator fluid, and coolant keeps your engine cool. Your vehicle’s radiator fluid will be tailored to your vehicle’s make, along with the time and temperature of the year.
Brake Fluid: One of the systems most crucial to your overall safety is your braking system. Without properly working brakes, you could easily find yourself in a potentially dangerous and scary situation. Brake fluid regulates both the high pressure and temperature in your braking system.
Power Steering Fluid: If your vehicle doesn’t have enough power steering fluid, you might not be able to steer straight through the streets of Clovis. This fluid is imperative to keep you, your passengers, and other drivers on the road safe.
