Tires

• It’s no secret your tires are important to your performance 
• If your tire tread is looking worn-down, has metal showing through the rubber, or crack and cuts it might be time for new ones

Engine Fluids 

• Your engine needs clean oil, coolant, and transmission fluid to run properly and maintain maximum performance
• Check all fluid levels before hitting the road and make sure your oil change is up to date

Brakes and Brake Fluid 

• Bad brakes and depleted brake pad fluid are a dangerous combination 
• Get your brakes and their fluid checked before a long trip and test your brakes capacity 

Don’t Forget The Travel Tools

• It is always smart to equip your vehicle with tools for an emergency 
• Be sure to pack a first-aid kit, flashlight, blanket, umbrella, phone charger, and some snacks
• Also, ensure that your spare tire is fully inflated and that you have the proper tools to change out a blown tire

Travel Safe

• Remember to follow the speed limit, use turn signals when changing lanes, look out for debris and tire shrapnel on the road, and be wary of wet and icy surfaces
