Getting Your Vehicle Ready for Summer!
We all know that it’s important to protect ourselves, our pets, and our homes from the heat during the summer months, but are you making sure your new or used car is safe and running efficiently as well?
One of the first things most of us think of in terms of beating the heat is air conditioning, and it’s easy to overlook it if it’s something you’re used to having. However, it’s very important that you keep your system running properly to avoid it going out, especially if you’re planning a trip that involves a lot of driving. Always check your owner’s manual to be sure you’re changing and replacing any filters that your car comes equipped with, and have it checked by a professional if you experience any sort of issues.
You and your family will not only have peace of mind while riding in this five-seater sedan, but you will also enjoy the ride.

There’s also the Hyundai Blue Link connected car system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, ensuring seamless integration with your digital lifestyle while maintaining focus on the road ahead.
Your engine can’t be neglected either. Before any big trips, be sure to have everything assessed by a professional mechanic. Oil levels and engine performance are extremely vital and should be checked and maintained regularly. Batteries also need to be replaced before they die on you. It can be pricey, but it’s well worth the expense. Keep a pair of jumper cables in your used cars garland trunk for emergencies as well.
Tires and brakes can also cause horrific accidents if they aren’t checked and changed when they need to be, so have your mechanic check those as well and replace them when the time rolls around.
Visibility is also key; replace windshield wipers regularly and check all of your lights both inside and outside the vehicle.
Accidents happen, and it’s always best to be prepared for the unknown. If your car insurance doesn’t offer roadside assistance, consider purchasing it from other companies such as AAA. It’s also always a good idea to keep basic tools, flashlights, flares, bottled water, and non-perishable food items in your vehicle during any type of extended trip. As long as you plan ahead, our Bronx Luxury Car Dealer want’s to make sure you have a wonderful summer full of road trips and unforgettable adventures!
