Despite all the technological advances, many games of destiny for which humanity has no answers. No matter how advanced AI and computers evolve, one thing we still can't do is foretell the future. Similarly, it is challenging to comprehend why the things we dread the most usually occur when we least want or expect them to. For instance, losing a close relative the day before a family member gets married, breaking out in a pimple just before your ideal lunch date, or getting a sore throat right before entering a singing competition.


Similarly, automobile breakdowns occur just when you least expect them to. Every family is anxious to get away from the frenetic pace of the city during the summer vacation season and enjoy the tranquillity of nature's magnificent beauty. The idea seems to be followed precisely. The kids are prepared, you have everything you need packed, and you have food and snacks for the journey.

This article will cover the items to check the car before leaving to save users the agony of being stuck on the road during a lengthy trip.


Tires should come first

According to the Hankook Survey, a flat tire is one of the top concerns for the ordinary Canadian. This anxiety is even worse in the summer since the severity of a long, freezing winter has equally worn down the road and the tires. Our best advice for those who don't utilize separate winter tires is to replace their current tires. For others, you should first ensure that you have a reliable spare tire and an immediate toolbox in the trunk. Then, check the treads and tire pressure on each of your tires. Before departing for the vacation, fix everything that seems out of place. Always remember that these checks shouldn't be left until the last minute. To prevent any last-minute stress or delays, you must complete them a day or two in advance.



Examine the battery

A failing battery is the second most frequent cause of an automobile accident after flat tires. Therefore, you must begin with a fundamental visual examination to check for corrosion on the terminals. Clean up the corrosion to provide a more robust, continuous electrical connection. To accomplish this, combine 15ml of baking soda with 250ml of water, then carefully clean the corrosion away with an old toothbrush. Take the automobile to a local service facility for an examination if things still seem off, or battery boost service. You may calmly count upon battery-boosting solutions everywhere in and around Vancouver if something problem occurs during the journey.


Do You Need To Replace Your Wipers?

In the summer, it's inevitable to meet showers and storms. You should ensure that the car's windshield wipers are in excellent shape to effectively remove water. Unfortunately, many individuals skip this step and then grimace at the weather while grinding their teeth. In the worst circumstances, broken wipers cause many accidents during storms.


Check The Lights, Mirrors, And Windshield

Examining the windshield is also crucial, and I should include the wipers. Check the windscreen for apparent cracks or chips, and get them fixed right away. Check the lights, horns, and mirrors for correct operation in an identical manner.


Check For Any Unusual Behavior

Lastly, pay attention to any apparent odd behaviour that your car exhibits. Take it for a test drive and look for abnormal noises or smells. If anything strange happens, bring the car to a garage immediately so it can be fixed. In addition to your own senses, you should also believe your car's warning lights. Take care of any dangerous lights on your dashboard by paying attention to them.
