Are you and the family traveling over the holidays? If you are, it’s important that you schedule a pre-trip inspection. Taking your car to an auto technician regularly should be routine practice, and doing so prior to a lengthy commute is highly recommended. Here are some car maintenance service items to have your auto repair specialist inspect before you head out.

Tires

If you’re traveling, inspecting your tires is paramount, particularly if you know you’ll be on the road for long stretches of time. Make tire inspections and possibly a rotation and an alignment check a part of the maintenance before you depart.

Battery

Another part to have your auto service look at before leaving is your vehicle battery. When you arrive at the station, have a mechanic look over the battery’s remaining charge and condition of the terminals. The last thing you need is a dead battery in the middle of your travels.

Brakes

There’s nothing worse than having a brake malfunction while you’re traveling with your loved ones during the holidays. Have your brakes examined and given the green light by a technician before you leave.
