Brought to you by Martin CDJR
The leaves are changing, the weather is getting crisper, and football is on the television, which can only mean one thing, fall is here! Fall is an excellent time of year to plan a road trip to go leaf-peeping, but before you do, be sure to have your RAM checked first! You don’t want to get into a situation where you break down on the highway because your RAM isn’t in good condition. If you need an oil change, tire rotation, or get your engine in working order, be sure to stop by Martin CDJR, where our highly skilled technicians will go over every inch of your RAM and make the necessary adjustments. In the meantime, continue reading down below as we go over the different things you should not ignore as we head through the fall and into winter.
Get the Wipers Replaced
You want to make sure that you don’t overlook this critical detail as bad and cooler weather will put your wiper blades in lousy shape. Your windshield wipers are essential because if you get caught in a storm with a bad wiper blade, it will be challenging to see. If you notice that your windshield wipers are starting to decline, you’re going to want to head down to Martin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM and have them changed before they get worse. You don’t want to end up in traction on the highway because your windshield wipers are bad!
Have Your Battery Checked or Replaced
When the colder weather hits, your battery becomes one of the most critical parts of your RAM. The cold weather can cause problems for your battery, particularly if you park your pickup outside. When left out in colder temperatures for an extended period, your battery can start to deteriorate and even die. Before the winter hits, it’s a good idea to head down to Martin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM and at least have your battery checked by our professionals before something catastrophic happens. If your battery needs to be replaced, our technicians can do that for you, too, here at Martin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM!
Get Your Heater and Defroster Checked
While there isn’t a ton of snow here in Texas, it can still get pretty cold, so you’re not going to want to get caught without a heater. Before the temperatures start to drop, be sure to head into Martin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM and have our experts check out your heater and defroster. No one wants to go out to their RAM first thing in the morning, start their truck, and realize that no heat is coming out, so it’s essential to ensure these systems are working correctly before you set out driving this fall.
Have Your Headlights Checked
One of the most underrated parts of your RAM is the headlights. If you tend to do a lot of night driving, you’re going to want to make sure your headlights are in working order. This is also true if you tend to take your RAM out in a lot of bad weather as properly working headlights help vehicles in the other lane to see you more clearly. Be sure to head down to Marin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM, where our technicians will check the operation of all your headlights, including the emergancy flashers, brake lights, headlights, taillights, and parking lights. Not only are all of these lights essential for you and your RAM’s safety, but they are also critical to the protection of other drivers.
Take a Peek Under the Hood
We can’t forget about the most critical part of the RAM, the engine! During the fall months, be sure to take a peek underneath a hood to make sure that your engine is running smoothly and crisply. There are a few issues that could be catastrophic to your engine as the months get colder with the easy one being your engine oil. Oil is the lifeblood of any engine and the best season to get it done is during the fall. Colder temperatures can seriously decrease the efficacy of your engine oil as it can break down or get dirty. Be sure to head to Martin Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM and have our experts take a peek under the hood and take care of any necessary repairs.
