Warm weather and clear skies in Yuba City provide an irresistible combination for drivers wanting to take a road trip or just enjoy an afternoon cruising a scenic highway. Prepare your Lincoln for the summer driving season with a bit of maintenance and a thorough inspection of your engine. Our technicians are ready to get started on the services to ensure a great summer behind the wheel.
If you’re due for an oil change, now is the perfect time to get one. Starting on a road trip with fresh oil and a clean filter is ideal, as you’ll most likely be operating your engine at highway speeds for hours at a time across multiple days, a demanding situation for any vehicle. You can also have an inspection done that will check hoses, gaskets, and belts for any signs of imminent failure. You don’t want to encounter a problem far from Oroville that will have you searching for a good emergency mechanic in an unfamiliar place.
It’s also a good idea to have your tires rotated, and their pressure checked and adjusted if necessary. Properly inflated tires will help save on gas money in addition to giving you a reliable and smooth ride. If you need a new set, we’ll be happy to suggest an appropriate tread for the season. Don’t neglect your brakes; an inspection can let you know if your pads are wearing thin, so you don’t discover that halfway through a trip.
Our technicians can also perform a quick test of your battery’s proficiency. High summer temperatures in Chico can cause your battery to run through its resources at a faster rate. We can also top up engine fluids like window washer fluid and make sure your coolant system has ample fluid.
