As the crisp air of fall starts to settle in Western North Carolina, now’s the time to make sure your car is ready for the cooler weather. Preparing your vehicle for fall not only helps you avoid costly repairs but also gives you the opportunity to be eco-friendly in the process. Here are some green car maintenance tips to keep your vehicle in top shape this season.
1. Check Your Tires and Tread
Fall brings wet roads and potentially slippery conditions, so having tires with proper tread is essential. If your tires are worn, consider replacing them with eco-friendly options made from sustainable materials. At the very least, make sure your current tires are properly inflated to increase fuel efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.
2. Fix Those Dents Before the Cold Sets In
If you’ve got any dings or dents from summer adventures, now’s the time to take care of them. Waiting until the cold weather hits can cause dents to worsen due to temperature fluctuations. Traditional repairs often require repainting and harsh chemicals, but with Paintless Dent Removal (PDR), you can repair those dents in an environmentally friendly way. PDR uses no chemicals and doesn’t require repainting, helping you maintain your car’s value while protecting the planet.
3. Check Your Battery
Cooler weather can take a toll on your car battery, so it’s a good idea to have it checked or replaced before the season shifts. Look for eco-friendly battery options that use less harmful materials, and be sure to recycle your old one properly.
4. Eco-Friendly Fluids
Fall is a good time to check all your vehicle’s fluids, from engine coolant to brake fluid. Consider using eco-friendly or synthetic fluids that are less harmful to the environment. They offer the same protection while reducing your overall environmental footprint.
5. Clean Up Your Interior
Getting your car ready for fall means sprucing up the interior too. Opt for eco-friendly cleaning products made from natural ingredients to freshen up your seats, dashboard, and carpets without introducing harmful chemicals into your car’s environment.
