As the leaves begin to change and temperatures start to cool, it’s important to think about how the upcoming season may affect your vehicle. From wet leaves and frosty mornings to the harsh weather of winter, fall can impose some challenges on your car. But with a little preparation and care, you can keep your car clean and in top shape as we head into the colder months. In this blog, we will discuss some car wash and car tips for the fall season.
1) Keep your car clean
Fall means falling leaves, and those leaves can cause a real challenge for cars. Once leaves get wet, they can become slippery and stick to the vehicle’s surface, especially around windshields and wipers. To prevent issues like this, make sure to regularly clean your car, making sure you remove any leftover leaves or debris from your windshield. If you let leaves and debris sit on your vehicle’s paint for too long, it can also damage your paint, so be proactive and keep your car clean. Our Unlimited Packages allow you to wash your car with no limits at a set monthly rate which means you can live unlimited and always have a clean ride.
2) Drain and refill your car’s fluids
As temperatures begin to cool down, it’s important to check and make sure your car’s fluids are ready for the changing weather as well. This includes everything from oil and antifreeze to your transmission and brake fluid. Make sure that your wiper fluid is filled to the brim to help keep your windshield clean. Draining fluids will help remove any harmful contaminants that can cause damage to your vehicle.
3) Check your tire pressure
As temperatures change, so does air pressure. Cold weather can cause tire pressure to drop, which can lead to uneven wear and other problems. Make sure to check your car’s tire pressure regularly and fill up if necessary. Good tire pressure ensures better control and handling.
4) Replacing Damaged Parts
The brisk autumn air can also have an impact on already damaged car parts. Make sure you’re taking the time to repair or replace any cracked windows, mirrors or door handles. The moisture from rain and snow can aggravate the severity of such damages, causing additional problems such as rust or mold.
5) Protect the exterior with Ceramic
Prior to the start of fall season, you can protect your car’s exterior with our newest product Ceramic. Ceramic is an advanced paint protection technology that creates a clear layer of protection on top of your car’s existing paint job. This layer helps protect against scratches and acts as a barrier between your car’s paint and the elements, making it less likely for water and debris to stick. You can add ceramic to our top WOW Wash package for just $39.99 a month!
Fall is a great time of year to take care of your car with the helpful tips above. By keeping your car clean, checking your fluids, keeping good tire pressure, replacing damaged parts, and adding ceramic to your car wash routine, your car will be ready to handle whatever the season throws its way. Taking care of your car regularly can save you time and money by helping you avoid costly repairs or cosmetic damage. It’s a smart investment that will keep your car looking good and running smoothly for years to come, and WOW Carwash is here for all your car wash needs.
