Postponing needed brake service, in addition to being a safety hazard, can escalate the cost of a brake system overhaul. Have your brakes inspected every 10,000 to 15,000 miles for wear.
Don't wait for a rainy day to replace worn blades. Road film, poorly adjusted wiper arms, and rubber deterioration are the biggest causes for wiper blade failure. Clean your windshield with a good quality glass cleaner and make sure that the wipers contact the windshield at a 90 degree angle. Test the clearing capabilities of the blade. If streaking still occurs, replacement of the blade is necessary.
You burn less gas at highway speeds with your windows up and your air conditioner on than you do with your windows down and air conditioner off? Government tests prove it. Reduced air drag with closed windows makes the difference.
Most vehicles should have their alignment checked every year. The springs and suspension sag from the weight of the vehicle which changes the alignment angles. This can cause tire wear and handling problems.
