Spring "Brake" Pre Road Trip List
If you're going to be headed out of town soon, be sure to schedule a visit to your auto care facility before heading out. And I recommend planning the visit to the garage with some grace period before your road trip. Ideally a week and at minimum three days. Why the buffer? The buffer is because you might need a special order part. Or something significant is required, and the work would take a few days. Sometimes major work requires a follow-up visit.
Here is a list of what I think are definite road trip check-up items and systems to have looked over;
Tires
Brakes
Suspension & Steering
Alignment
Fluid conditions
Engine cooling system
Belts & Hoses
Battery
