  1. Check the fluids. Take a look at the fluid levels for your engine oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, radiator coolant, antifreeze/coolant and windshield washer fluid.

  2. Work the wipers. It can be difficult to see the road or objects in front of you if your vehicle has old windshield wipers. Be sure to replace them before heading out on the road.

  3. Extending the miles per gallon. Does your vehicle have poor fuel economy? Get tips from Eric The Car Guy on how to make sure your vehicle gets the mileage it used to.

  4. Inspect your tires. Take a look at the tire pressure and make sure the treads are providing traction for your vehicle.

  5. Preventative check. Don’t have the time to take care of the maintenance yourself? Head over to an automotive service station for a checkup.
