Our Experts Give You Their Top Hyundai Spring Maintenance Tips
Posted on April 5, 2024
With spring upon us, now is the time to wash away the traces of winter on our Hyundai vehicle. Canadian winters can be very harsh on any vehicle, and the dirt and grime can accumulate quickly in places we may not readily see. When it comes to spring maintenance, it's all about checking under the hood, or in the case of a Hyundai electric vehicle, under the body, and firing up the power washer. We asked our factory-trained Hyundai technicians for their best tips regarding spring maintenance for Hyundai cars, SUVs, and electric vehicles. Here's what they had to say.
Check the Fluids
Your oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and every other type of fluid in your Hyundai are tested during winter. Spring is a great time to make sure all your fluids are topped off and that they are still in proper operating condition.
Check Your Wheel Alignment
Vehicle alignment is one of the most common areas in need of repair after winter. The numerous potholes that show up on our roads can quickly throw off your alignment, which in turn reduces comfort, vehicle stability, and leads to increased tire wear and fuel consumption. Having your alignment as well as your suspension components checked is an important step in spring.
Brakes
Your brakes can wear down more quickly in winter, and having your brake pads and discs inspected come spring is always a great idea. You want to make sure you have the full stopping power of your Hyundai at your disposal in the months ahead.
Check Your Summer Tires
A lot of owners don't necessarily take the time to think about the condition of their summer tires when spring rolls around. We certainly don't put the same kind of attention into our summer tires as we do our winter tires. Still, it's worth taking a look at the condition of your summer tires before having them installed, particularly if this is your fourth or fifth summer on the same set of tires.
Have Your Vehicle Thoroughly Cleaned
Winter can leave traces that you may not even see on your vehicle's body and undercarriage. A full detailing package will get rid of these unwanted elements, preserving the resale value and overall quality of your Hyundai over time. A detailing package is also something that you can do just for you; it's always fun to have a vehicle that looks and smells brand new just in time for spring.
