Get Your Mercedes-Benz Ready for the Summer

The hot summer weather is finally here, along with a higher volume of traffic. Most people tend to hit the roads more often in the summer months. This makes automotive maintenance for your Mercedes-Benz even more important during the summer. If you want to avoid breakdowns and accidents, follow these tips below:

  • A/C - Summer isn’t summer without working air conditioning. Have a mechanic check out your Mercedes-Benz’s A/C system to ensure you’re good on refrigerant.
  • Cooling System - Overheating is the top cause of summer vehicle breakdowns. To beat the heat, you will need to ensure your cooling system is in tip top shape. Get a coolant flush if you want to be extra cautious.
  • Oil Change - You should always follow Mercedes-Benz’s specifications for oil change intervals. Running your engine with low or dirty oil can cause costly engine repairs down the line.
  • Lights - Check to see if your headlights are working and lit properly. 
  • Windshield Wipers - Summer rain showers can sneak up on you. You’ll need a fresh pair of windshield wipers to clear off your windshield. 
  • Brakes - If your brakes feel or act weird, such as slow responding or making squeals, be sure to have your Mercedes-Benz braking system inspected. Otherwise, you could put your and others’ safety at risk.
  • Battery - Batteries tend to do the worse in heat. The heat can accelerate corrosion buildup, which can weaken your battery’s charge. If you're planning on doing a lot of driving this summer, it is best to come to our auto repair shop for a battery test.
  • Tires - Tires require some of the most maintenance when it comes to your Mercedes-Benz. From tire rotations to wheel alignments, it is important that your tires are road worthy. You should also check their tire tread and tire pressure.
