Spring maintenance for your GM vehicle: some practical tips

Your GM vehicle made it possible for you to spend the winter in safety and brought you to your destination, that is, to the gates of spring. Now the time has come to thank him by doing a seasonal interview to get him ready for summer.


Here are some practical tips for doing this.


Your tires?


The first thing to do is of course to replace your winter tires with summer tires. Incredibly, many people don't even bother to remove their winter tires or do it too late. Ideal in cold weather, they lose grip on hot, dry and wet roads. Wash your winter tires thoroughly removing any remaining salt stains, then be sure to store them in a cool, dry place, ideally at your GM dealer who provides this service. In the fall, all you have to do is show up for the installation of your winter gums.


Battery


After a harsh winter, make sure your car battery is still in good condition. The winter has certainly been harsh and it may have caused it to deteriorate. If the battery is over four years old and you notice that the starts are a bit longer and slower, it's time to replace it. And don't forget that summer and the heat are also tough on a battery; she must also be in good condition to face the summer.


Your wiper blades


Snow, mud and ice are all things that may have damaged your wipers over the past winter. But with the rain that Mother Nature sends us in the spring, you need brooms in excellent condition to face the spring. Consult your GM specialist to find out which models are suitable for your vehicle. And remember, replacing the wipers periodically could save you from having to replace a windshield.


Liquids


Your vehicle's engine runs on the help of a variety of fluids. In the spring, the time has come to drain most of these and check the condition of the others. Your GM repair shop is there to support you in this important step. By entrusting us with your vehicle, you will be sure it will hit the road in spring and summer with the right fluids to weather the heat.
