🎒🚗 Back to school = back to the school run!
The uniforms are ready, the bags are packed (almost!)… but is your car ready for the September routine?
After summer holidays, longer journeys and days out, now is a great time to give your car a little attention before the daily school runs begin again.
Here are 6 things worth checking:
🛞 Tyres – Check pressures, tread and look for any signs of damage or uneven wear.
🛑 Brakes – Squeaking, grinding, pulling or a change in how the pedal feels? Get them checked.
🔋 Battery – Don't let a struggling battery make you late for the school gates!
💡 Lights – With the days gradually getting shorter, make sure all your lights and indicators are working properly.
🌧️ Wipers – Autumn weather won't be far away. Check your wipers are clearing the screen without smearing or juddering.
💧 Fluids – Oil, coolant, brake fluid and screenwash all deserve a quick check.
Want a little extra peace of mind before September?
Book your vehicle in with Reliance for a health check and make sure it's ready for everything the school-run routine throws at it.
