GMC Service Tips | Rick Weaver GMC

Our vehicles need routine GMC service to stay in peak condition. This is particularly true as the seasons change, because our driving conditions change so much. Our service experts at Rick Weaver GMC have a few tips to help you get your SUV ready for warm weather.

Rotate Your Tires

Tires naturally wear down over time, but the degradation can be heightened in the winter due to the cold temperatures and wet terrains. Uneven wear can leave you prone to blowouts, so it’s essential to rotate your tires. We’ll also check to make sure your tires have adequate tread and pressure.

Inspect Your Brakes

Winter roads can also be hard on your brakes. We’ll check to make sure that your brake pads haven’t become too worn, because that can lead to serious brake damage, and it also affects the functionality of your brakes. If you need new parts, we’ll always replace yours with genuine GMC parts.

Replace Your Windshield Wipers

After the winter, it’s also highly likely that you’ll need new windshield wipers. Wipers become brittle in cold weather, leaving them prone to breaking. For your safety, you need wipers that can clear your windshield without streaking or skipping. It’s also a good time to top off your windshield wiper fluid.

Have Your Air Conditioning System Serviced

As the weather continues to heat up, you’ll start using your air conditioner more and more. Before it gets too warm, you want to make sure it can adequately cool down your cabin. Your system should be serviced and, if necessary, we’ll also replace your air filter.

Clean Your SUV

If you haven’t yet, make sure to give your SUV a good thorough cleaning. You want to make sure that any remnants of winter have been completely removed, so the exterior of your vehicle isn’t compromised. Waxing your SUV is also important because it can protect the exterior from the hot sun.
