Avoid the Holiday Breakdown

During the school holidays do you ever feel like you’re having a breakdown?

Let car trouble be the least of your worries these school holidays with these top tips from the experts at Lakes Hyundai. Whether you’re travelling great distances or just running around greater Brisbane in adventure mode with the family, by taking your vehicle for a health check at Lakes Hyundai, this will ensure that your holiday time is a fun time!

Before setting off on your adventure, the key areas to keep an eye on are:
– Handle the pressure! Making sure that your tyre pressure is at the recommended PSI and your tyres are in acceptable condition. The acceptable depth within your tyre depth should be no less than 1.5mm.
– Keep it cool! You must ensure that your engine oil & coolant levels are high, especially on long road trips in Queensland’s extreme weather conditions. The last thing you need is to be 300km out of Brisbane and stranded with your car overheating.
– Stay lit! For optimal safe driving, particularly at night, make sure you check your entire lighting system is working, including break lights.
– Top it up! Last but not least, making sure your windscreen wipers are in good condition and the windscreen washers topped up. There’s nothing worse than bug build up on a long drive due to no windscreen washers.

The safest thing you can do for your family is bring your vehicle in for a cost effective Hyundai health check to put your mind at ease before you embark on your family holiday and drive safe!
