Scheduling Mercedes-Benz maintenance is important all year round, but especially when coming out of the more inclement driving conditions of winter, which can really take a toll on your vehicle. Fields Motorcars is here to provide all the service, support, and resources you need to start spring driving right. Learn about essential spring maintenance tasks at our dealership.
Brake Check
Your brakes are the most important safety feature in your vehicle. The slippery and icy conditions of winter road trips north mean they typically undergo more use and pressure, increasing the risk of wear and damage. Salt, moisture, and debris from winter road surfaces can also cause brakes to corrode more quickly, so it’s important to get your brakes inspected for safe spring driving.
Wheel Alignment
Your vehicle’s wheel alignment helps to ensure that all the tires are facing in the right direction. Winter driving out of state, with slippery road conditions and hidden potholes, can increase the risk of your wheels being pushed out of alignment, which can lead to pulling, less control behind the wheel, and uneven wear of the tires and brake pads. A wheel alignment will give you peace of mind before the next spring adventure.
Oil Change
The oil in your vehicle is responsible for some of the most important functions, including cooling and lubricating the engine to reduce the risk of damage or overheating. It also collects dirt and debris from the surface of the road before it can damage the engine. If you take winter road trips, there is more dirt and debris, including salt, meaning the oil becomes saturated more quickly. When you schedule a spring oil change, you’ll start the new season with the protection you deserve.
