Check Tire Pressure
Make sure to examine your tire pressure, as the change in weather causes pressure fluctuations. Refer to your owner's manual for the recommended PSI and properly inflate your tires. This improves gas mileage and handling.
Replace Windshield Wipers
Winter weather around Baltimore can wear down wiper blades. Installing new Hyundai Genuine blades ensures you have a clear windshield on rainy spring days. Our technicians can handle wiper replacement at our service center in Gaithersburg.
Wash and Wax Exterior
Give your Hyundai a wash to remove winter salt, dirt, and grime buildup. Waxing regularly prevents rust and keeps your paint pristine. Don't forget to clean the undercarriage.
Schedule a Tune-Up
A tune-up keeps your Hyundai running optimally. Our experts will replace spark plugs, the air filter, engine oil, and perform other maintenance for peak performance. Tune-ups can also boost fuel efficiency.
Check All Fluids
Inspect fluid levels, including oil, transmission, brake, coolant, and washer fluids. Top them off as necessary to avoid issues from fluctuations caused by extreme weather shifts around Arlington, VA.
Inspect Belts and Hoses
Have our technicians near Alexandria, VA, check belts and hoses, which can crack or loosen over time. We'll identify any worn parts that need replacement.
Replace Cabin Air Filter
Replace the cabin air filter to remove allergens like pollen and dust for cleaner air inside your car.
Test and Replace Battery
Batteries struggle in cold weather. Our Gaithersburg service center can test your battery for performance and install a new one if required.
Check Lights and Wipers
Verify all exterior lights are working and wiper blades effectively clear your windshield. Replace any burnt out bulbs and damaged wipers.
Inspect Brakes
Winter driving accelerates brake pad wear. Our technicians will examine your brakes and replace them if needed for safety.
