In the U.S., millions of people heavily rely on our vehicles. Most people drive their cars to their work on a daily basis. Some are on the road for at least an hour or more per way. This means each driver is spending at least 10 hours in their car every week.
In this case, it’s important to keep your car looking and feeling healthy. By properly maintaining your vehicle, you are prolonging the lifespan of your car. Taking good care of your car is the best way to keep it healthy and in its best running condition.
Here are some tips on how to keep your car in good shape.
- Wash your car regularly.
Always keep your car clean with the KevianClean Car Wash Shampoo. Don’t forget to clean the interior of your vehicle as well.
You can bring it to a car wash or clean it yourself. Washing your car regularly eliminates the dirt, grime, and oil in your car to extend the longevity of your vehicle. This prevents the development of corrosion and rust in your car.
Waxing your car every three months can also lengthen the lifespan of your car’s exterior paint. Regular waxing can enhance the paint of your car and make it look sparkling new.
- Change your oil and oil filter.
Regular checking your oil and oil filter can prolong the performance of your engine. Once you neglect or avoid this task, it can possibly lead to the deterioration of your vehicle.
The best way to remember to have your oil and oil filter changed is to write it on a calendar so you can easily keep track of it. Don’t forget to keep track of the mileage and date of your last oil change.
- Avoid direct sun exposure.
Just like our skin, your car’s interior and exterior parts can become damaged from long periods of sun exposure. It can cause your car paint to fade and your plastic, vinyl, and leather interior parts to dry and crack.
The best way to protect your car is to park it in under a roof or shade. You can use car shades to protect the interior of your vehicle.
- Flush out your coolant.
