Your Jeep is the prefect vehicle to hit the road and find adventure in. With roomy interiors, efficient performance and all the technology and features you want, a Jeep is perfect for loading up the family, or driving solo. Every road warrior's fear, however, is that they will encounter trouble out on the open road. That's why your team at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Tucson has put together a road trip vehicle checklist that will help prevent trouble and help you and your family block out the stress so you can focus more on making memories. So before you depart, consider following these steps:
- Check your tires- Getting your tires checked is a must. Make sure that your tires are ready to stand up to any wet or cold driving conditions that you might pass through. Inflation levels Inflation levels are also important to check, including your spare. Overinflated or under-inflated tires can wear more quickly and unevenly, and can also adversely affect your gas mileage.
- Get your oil changed- One of the best ways to prevent engine trouble is to change your oil regularly. You can set up a quick service appointment with us just by clicking here.
- Top off your fluids- Just like changing your vehicle’s oil, making sure your other fluids such as power steering, wiper fluid, coolant, etc. are adequate is important. Again, all this can be done right here at your dealership.
- Bring a basic repair/tool kit- We hope you don't run into trouble out on the road... But if you do, you'll want to be prepared with some basic things that might help you out of a sticky situation. Items like a tire iron, chains, a flashlight, first aid kit, gloves, blankets, jumper cables, etc. are important. For more suggestions and help with your kit, just ask us and we would be happy to help.
