Monthly Checklist

Taking your vehicle to us each month for an inspection can help ensure your vehicle is operating correctly and running smoothly. You can also opt to raise the hood yourself and perform your own monthly inspection with confidence by following a few simple recommendations for owner maintenance. A few minutes each month could save you money or repairs down the line!

Here is a list of things you can expect us to check when you bring your vehicle in:

  • Check battery cables, clamps and terminals
  • Check belts for tension, cracks or wear.
  • Check hoses for leaks, cracks or wear.
  • Inspect the engine and under the car for any leaks.
  • Check tire pressure on all tires, including the spare tire and inflate to manufacturers recommendations while cold.
  • Inspect the tread depth. The tread should be at least as deep as the head of a penny. (At least 2/32" remaining tread.)
  • Inspect tires for uneven wear or any object that could cause a puncture.
  • Check the following levels and add the recommended fluids as necessary:
    • - Oil level
    • - Engine coolant level
    • - Brake fluid level
    • - Power steering fluid level (if applicable)
    • - Transmission fluid
    • - Windshield washer fluid reservoir level
