    The OTHER Car Care Tips for the Fall Season

    As the leaves start to change and temperatures drop, it’s time to ensure your vehicle is ready for the fall season. At BBack Car Care in Doylestown, PA, we understand the importance of maintaining your vehicle year-round, and the fall season presents unique challenges that can impact your car’s performance. Proper maintenance now can help you avoid costly repairs down the road. We’ve previously discussed the basics (link to blog), such as battery health, fluids, tires, and brakes. Yet there are plenty of simpler tasks that can help you prepare for the colder months.

    Replace Your Windshield Wipers

    With fall comes increased rainfall, and your windshield wipers are your first line of defense for clear visibility. Old or worn-out wipers can cause streaking and reduce your ability to see in bad weather. Be sure to:

    • Replace your wipers if they leave streaks or make noise.
    • Check that your windshield washer fluid reservoir is full and consider using a fluid that prevents freezing in colder weather.

    Check Your Heating System

    As the temperatures begin to cool, you’ll rely more on your vehicle’s heating system. Now is the time to ensure your heater and defroster are working properly. Here’s what to do:

    • Test your heater and defroster to ensure they produce warm air.
    • Have your HVAC system inspected for any leaks or issues.
    • Replace your cabin air filter to improve air quality inside your vehicle.

    The team at BBack Car Care is here to perform a full HVAC system check to ensure you’re comfortable on every fall drive.

    Examine Your Lights

    Shorter days mean you’ll be using your headlights more frequently. Make sure all your lights are functioning properly for maximum visibility:

    • Inspect headlights, taillights, brake lights, and turn signals.
    • Replace any burned-out bulbs.
    • Consider upgrading to brighter bulbs for enhanced visibility on dark fall evenings.
    • Don’t forget your license plate bulb!

    These steps can help you avoid an unwanted citation if you were to get pulled over, and also help you see hazards such as wet leaves, deer, and anything else that you might come across on the road.
