This is the maintenance and inspection that is needed for the Hot Oklahoma Summer Months:
Check your antifreeze and coolant level
-A common cause for automobile breakdowns is due to a coolant system failure. Hudiburg Chevy can perform diagnostic tests to make sure your cooling system is operating at peak efficiency.
If you have to add coolant there may be a leak. Have your vehicle inspected for coolant leaks. An over heated engine is one of the worst problems for your vehicle. It would save you more money to have it inspected rather then risk it over heating. We can check this out for you at little to no cost. Service may be required after inspection.
Your AC System needs to be inspected
-It is important to get your air conditioner checked for leaks and recharged to ensure optimal performance during the Hot Summer Months. We can check this out for you at little to no cost. Service may be required after inspection.
Check your Battery functions
-If your battery is more than 3 years old it should be inspected. Hudiburg Chevy can test its capacity and the output of your alternator.
It is also very important to make sure that the battery terminal ends are free of corrosion. You can clean the terminal ends yourself by simply cleaning with baking soda and water or have it serviced by us.
Check your Tire Pressure and tread depth
-It is important to make sure that the tires are inflated to the correct pressure. You can find the pressure amount listed inside the driver’s side door or in your owner’s manual.
The tread depths of your tires need to be checked with every season change. You can check the tread by: Inserting a penny between the treads. If you can see the top of Lincoln's hair then, you need to change the tire. The tread is not in good condition.
If you live in an area where there is a lot of rain then you check the tread a little different. You use the same "hair rule" but, you use a nickel instead of a penny.
It is very important to check all rubber hoses and belts
-It is so important to make sure that your hoses and belts are not damaged. Inspect for heavy cracks and missing chunks within the hoses.
Your coolant hose needs to be inspected because; it wears from the inside out.
If you are not aware of all the hoses and belts to check then, take it to your personal mechanic for inspection. Inspection should cost you little to nothing depending on the mechanic. Service may be required after inspection.
Brake Systems will need to be checked
-Have your car's brake system checked if you haven't had it inspected in the previous 6 months. Brakes wear down quickly. It is so important to keep your brakes maintained and serviced before any problem arises. The sooner you find a brake problem the cheaper the problem can be fixed. Brake Inspection's are inexpensive. Service may be required after inspection.
Pay attention to the warning signs of brake problems. The biggest warning sign will be a warning light.
Make sure that your vehicles engine oil and filter is changed and up to date.
Engine oil should be changed per the manufactures recommendations to keep the engine healthy and to prolong its life. We will also check for oil leaks.
Many people are not aware of the importance of following the manufacturer's recommendation for the weight, grade, and type of oil to use. Consult Hudiburg's service department or the owners manual for the correct type. Using an incorrect type or weight may invalidate your manufacturer's warranty and be harmful to your vehicle.
It is important to use High Quality Engine Oil and a High Quality Oil Filter. This will extend the life of your engine and properly keep contaminants out of the engine. Having this service performed by Hudiburg Chevy will insure it’s done correctly.
