The change of seasons marks the perfect time to take your Lexus in for a summertime checkup. There are several Lexus service tasks to address before the hot weather arrives in earnest. That’s why we at Lexus of Valencia put together this guide on what you should get checked.
Brake and Tire Check
The tires and brakes are two of the most important things to maintain on any vehicle. A blowout or worn brakes can cause an accident far more costly than a simple inspection and maintenance. We also recommend a tire rotation to ensure you are evenly wearing the tires to make them last even longer.
Fluids and Filters
While summer may remind you to top off your coolant, it is also an excellent time to check all your fluids: oil, power steering, brake, transmission, and windshield washer fluids. It is also wise to have your technician inspect your filters: air, cabin, fuel, and oil.
A/C Test
With summer upon us, the last thing you’ll want to do is get stuck on the highway in sweltering weather without air conditioning. That’s why now is the best time to get your A/C checked and serviced. Often, this simply requires a refrigerant charge, but we’ll make sure the system’s other components are cleaned, lubed, and adjusted as necessary.
Replace Windshield Wipers
Lastly, the change of season is the perfect time to make sure your windshield wipers made it through winter intact. Cracks and wear lead to streaks or poor contact, cutting down visibility when you need it most. It is time to make sure you are working with new blades.
