You don't need to be a mechanic to catch problems early. Once a month, take 5 minutes in your driveway:
β
Lights β walk the car with hazards on; replace any dead bulb
β
Tires β glance for low pressure or uneven wear
β
Under the car β dark spots on the driveway = a leak worth checking
β
Wipers & washer fluid β streaking means it's time
β
Battery terminals β white crusty buildup is a slow-start waiting to happen
Catching one of these early is the difference between a $10 fix and a tow truck. And when you find something you're not sure about? Send us a photo β we'll tell you if it's urgent.
