Fall Service Recommendations
The changing of seasons is the perfect time to check in with your car and take care of any maintenance needs that it might have. There are also a few common service items that we recommend during this time of year to ensure that your daily drive around Annapolis goes as smoothly as possible. Here are some popular maintenance items that can help you whip your car into shape for fall and winter.
Battery Service
If your car battery is weak, you are far more likely to wake up on a chilly morning to a car that won't start. Cold weather saps your battery's strength, making it more difficult to do its job. So, plummeting temperatures can be what pushes a weak battery past its ability to function, leaving you with a car that can't start.
Fortunately, we can test your battery here at our Honda service center and determine whether you need a new battery so that you don't end up with any surprises. If your car needs a new battery, we have plenty of fresh ones here at our service center, and we will happily replace yours.
Wiper Blades
Now is the time of year when the weather really starts to misbehave around Bowie and Glen Burnie, so you'll need to make sure that your wiper blades can handle it. Be sure to check your wiper blades to see if they appear worn and keep an eye out to make sure that they aren't leaving streaks or skipping across your windshield. If your wiper blades aren't doing their jobs, they are likely too worn out and in need of replacement. We can change your wiper blades for you here at our service center.
Oil Change
It's never a bad time of year to get an oil change, we highly recommend taking a change in seasons as an opportunity to make sure that your car is up to date. Oil protects your engine and keeps its parts lubricated to help reduce wear and tear, but it doesn't do you any good if your oil is old and dirty. Fresh oil efficiency and longevity of your engine, so we highly recommend keeping up with this critical maintenance item to ensure that your Honda vehicle has what it needs to perform at its best.
Winter Tires
If you are in need of winter tires, you can shop for the perfect set here at our Honda dealership. If you already have a set, you can schedule a tire changeover at our service center.
Why do winter tires make a difference? Winter tires are made of a softer rubber compound, which enhances their ability to gain traction on cold pavement. They also have deeper, wider tread patterns, which help to improve traction on snowy, slippery surfaces. So, winter tires are ideal for helping you gain and maintain traction as you drive around Laurel, MD during the colder months of the year.
Our team is ready to help you get ready for colder weather here at Honda of Annapolis, so please feel free to reach out to us if you want to set up a service appointment.
