BOWLING GREEN, KY.- Holiday travel is sure to increase soon, and ensuring your vehicle receives the proper maintenance before you leave can save you a lot of time and money. Finding a trustworthy auto shop is key, as it prevents you from being taken advantage of by unscrupulous mechanics. Regularly scheduled maintenance throughout the year—like checking your brakes, coolant levels, and heating system—can help avoid unexpected breakdowns and keep you from being stranded on the side of the road.
Brent Huntsman, owner of Huntsman Automotive, emphasizes that consistent maintenance takes the stress out of travel. “If someone was doing regular maintenance through the year, I think it would take some of the stress off of traveling because they don’t have to rush. But yes, we do notice a little bit of a rush right before travel season.”
In addition to regular upkeep, mechanics recommend a full vehicle inspection before hitting the road. This pre-trip checkup ensures your car is ready for the journey and can catch any issues that may cause trouble during your travels. By taking these precautions, you’re not only protecting yourself and your passengers but also saving time and money in the long run. Before you embark on your holiday journey, be sure to have your vehicle inspected by a trusted shop to ensure it’s in top condition for the road ahead.
