Spring is just around the corner, ready for some spring auto maintenance? If you haven’t done maintenance on your car, then its probably a good time to take your vehicle in for auto service.

“To help motorists, Mopar has come up with a list of 10 tips for vehicle maintenance.

1. Check Brakes

Brakes are one of the most used (and often abused) components. A thin layer of the brake pad disintegrates every time the brakes are applied. It’s vital to replace pads or shoes before drums or rotors become damaged. Check pads, shoes, drums, rotors, calipers, fittings, brake hardware and parking brake to prevent problems.

2. Check Tires

Excessive edge wear, center wear and shoulder wear may be signs that other maintenance is required.” To read the entire article click here.
