How Should You Prepare your Kia Vehicle for Spring?

Spring has officially arrived and this means it is time to get your Kia vehicle ready for spring and the coming summer months. What does that mean exactly? Continue reading to find out.

Having summer tires installed

If you use winter tires on your Kia vehicle, it will soon be time to have them swapped out for summer or all-season tires. This is because while winter tires offer a lot of grip in cold temperatures and in slippery conditions, they are not well suited for driving on hot pavement and this causes them to wear out faster. If your current summer tires are reaching the end of their useful life, our tire center will help you choose quality replacements that will give your vehicle a higher level of safety and a better driving experience.

Having your vehicle serviced

Winter months are harsh on your vehicle’s components due to extreme temperature changes. This is why having your Kia vehicle serviced before and after winter is important to keep it in perfect working order. Some of the work that can be performed to make sure your vehicle is in great condition ahead of next summer are oil changes and brake cleanings. This second service is especially important since salt and road grime gets lodged on the brake components, which can cause them to corrode and emit unpleasant noises.

Having your vehicle detailed

In order to have your Kia vehicle looking its best this spring and for many more years, having it detailed by professionals is very important. Indeed, our Detailing service does more than just hose down the exterior and vacuum the carpets. For example, contaminants such as salt and dust can be removed from the paint, which can then be protected by wax in order to preserve the luster and rust protection Kia applies at the factory. Inside, our team can deep clean the upholstery and the carpets to make your vehicle look new once again. This helps it stay in great shape for many years and it also ensures you will get a higher resale value when you decide to trade it in.
