Nearly every day, you drive your vehicle. Whether it be a couple of miles to the store or a full-on road trip across the nation, you want to make sure that your vehicle is safe to drive and the systems are in check and/or up-to-date. Here are a few reminders to check and see if your vehicle is running in top shape.

Most importantly, your main systems should be a top priority. This includes brakes, steering, and fuel systems. Maintaining your engine and transmission proficiency is also crucial in ensuring that your car runs smoothly and safely. Maintenance is also key in keeping your car in shape. Oil changes should be done every 7,500 miles, tire rotations should be done every 5,000 miles, and fluid checks should be performed often.

It also never hurts to read your vehicle’s owner’s manual. You can learn an abundance of information that might come in handy one day. Remember: be a smart driver. Use safe driving techniques to ensure your well-being and others as well. Need any repairs or maintenance?
