Prep for Summer Heat with a Genesis Service Appointment

As the temperature continues to climb, road trips are no longer few and far between. If you have lots of summer traveling planned, it’s important to schedule a Genesis service appointment. Genesis of San Diego highlights the tasks you need to prepare for the summer heat.

Service the A/C

While summer isn’t the only time we use our air conditioners, they definitely get more of a workout over the summer. It’s important to have your system serviced, which includes a cleaning, testing, and thorough inspection. We’ll also check your coolant level and replace your air filter, if necessary.

Test the Battery

Extreme temperatures are harsh on your battery. Hot temperatures can cause your battery fluid to evaporate faster than normal, which leads to quicker deterioration. It’s a good idea to have your battery tested to make sure that it can handle the strain of a California summer.

Check Your Tire Pressure

Your tires are also affected over the summer. Tire pressure increases on hot streets, making you more prone to blowouts. Make sure to regularly check your tire pressure as temperatures increase and keep them at the recommended PSI (which you can find in your owner’s manual).

Top Off Your Fluids

With all the extra mileage, you may need fluid top offs or replacements more frequently. Your fluids are vital to your car’s health, so make sure to prioritize checking them regularly. These fluids include your engine oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, and more.
