Car Safety Checklist

When you see warning lights come on in your car, do you ignore them? Well, don't.  By performing routine maintenance and checks, you can keep your car safe.  You can also save yourself money by avoiding more expensive repairs. Here are 4 car safety tips to help keep the average driver safe and your car maintained:

1. Coolant - Coolant maintains your engine's temperature by utilizing the radiator. Be sure to regularly check the fluid levels in your radiator.  Also be sure that is clear and not cloudy or brown. 

2. Tires, Spare Tire and Jack - Overinflation and underinflation are crucial when it comes to tires. Both can be dangerous and affect your mileage.  Be sure to check your owner's manual for the recommended tire pressure and fill accordingly.  Also rotate your tires regularly and replace them when they are worn.  Be sure to have a spare and jack in your trunk at all times as well, just in case you catch a flat on the road. 

3. Battery - Batteries usually are good for about three and a half years.  Extreme temperatures can also affect a battery's lifespan. Keep your battery and its connecting cables free of corrosion by scrubbing them with a stiff wire brush and a mixture of baking soda and water (always making sure you catch the run-off in a tray or somthing similar). Make sure the battery is disconnected before beginning to clean it. Keep a look out for cracks in the battery shell or odd bulges, which usually indicate that you need a new battery. If you notice any problems with your battery or a few years have passed, be sure to have it replaced.

4. Brakes - When your car  is whining, screeching, grinding and pulling, or you see that red brake light on your dash, don't ignore it.You may need to check your brake fluid level or have your brakes serviced.  Acting fast can help you avoid the need for a full brake system overhaul, which can be quite expensive.

Car safety and maintenance is very important. You can save yourself money, frustration and even injury by caring for your car.
