Vehicle maintenance tips for the new school year

As the new school year approaches, drivers are advised to perform essential vehicle maintenance to ensure safety and efficiency during increased commutes. Key checks include verifying tire pressure to prevent blowouts and improve fuel economy, as well as ensuring tread depth meets the legal minimum of 1.6 mm.

Additionally, drivers should inspect spark plugs to prevent engine stalling or starting issues and check headlights to ensure visibility as daylight hours decrease. Consulting a professional or a distributor like Winparts can assist with technical inspections.
