Spring Cleaning Tips for Your Kia Vehicle

Mar 9, 2018

Spring is just around the corner. Now is the perfect time to provide your car with some seasonal attention to get it ready. Here at Classic Kia in Waukegan, IL, we have a few tips on how to get your car spring ready.

Cleaning

Winter can be hard on your car. Now is the perfect time to wash away all the salt and dirt that may have accumulated over the past few months. A good cleaning won’t just help your 2018 Kia Sportage look good, it will protect it from erosion and rust. A wax will provide additional protection for the months ahead.

Floor mats take a beating during the winter as well, so don’t forget to clean out your interior as well. If you’re a person who uses cup holders for storage, placing cupcake liners in the cup holder can make cleaning them effortless.

Maintenance

There are a few areas you’ll want to focus on when you think about spring maintenance. Firstly, make sure your windshield wipers are in good condition. Spring is known to be a rainy season and you’ll want to make sure your wipers are prepared to get you through it.

Second, you should focus on your wheels. The winter can have a devastating effect on roads. Harsh roads can throw off your car’s suspension and alignment. More importantly, be sure to ensure the condition of your tires. Improperly inflated or damaged tires can be extremely dangerous. Make sure your car is checked for both tire pressure and tread depth.

You can take care of all these issues when you come into our Kia service center near Waukegan, IL at Classic Kia. We hope you enjoy this upcoming spring, and having a car that’s ready to go will no doubt help in that endeavor.
