Summer is here, and that means road trips and longer drives in the heat. At Lewis Motor Sales Inc in Lafayette, IN, we want to help you stay safe behind the wheel this season. Before you head out, make sure your vehicle is ready for hot weather. Check your tires for proper air pressure, as heat can cause them to expand. Also, look at your coolant levels to prevent your engine from overheating on warm days.
Staying alert is just as important as vehicle care. Keep water bottles in your car to stay hydrated, and take breaks during long trips. The sun can make you tired faster than you think. If you are driving through Indiana this summer, plan your stops ahead of time so you can rest when you start to feel worn out.
